no you dont need boots, training centers generally give you lid jacket and gloves....

get the guys in the shop to fit the lid for you, i got one lid from hunts honda and the guy spent a good half hour with me and made sure i got a lid that fits....

my first lid the guy didnt give a poo.....just said "you wanna try the other size"

That sounds like the guy I brought my lid from just didn't care

Cheers James

I was going to suggest something a bit more drastic -

lol

My lid when its on i can move it quite a bit side to side best I get it changed i think.

Thanks

Got my training tomorrow looks like i will be borrowing a lid then?

Do you have to have boots?

I measured my head tried on that size it felt really tight so I ordered the next size up it feels tight but I can move the lid side to side and up and down.

The main problem is when i put it on it bends my ears over??

But in another helmet make two sizes down fits fine?

Any advice?

They dont have size 11's in.

Anyone had/got these

Bit of an update got an agv s4 coming and have a auqa frank thomas jacket.

Anymore ideas on boots and gloves

Cheers

Im in the same boat getting some stuff together I have got a frank thomas aqua jacket and just ordered a AGV s4 chequered helmet.

But im stuck on the boots and gloves?

Do you have to wear boots for your das?

Thanks

Hi mate

I bought this caberg V2 as my first helmet 2 years ago. Still got it now.

(cant add a link, wont let me! seach caberg V2 in google)

Its great cause it has low wind noise levels and it has an internal black visor so you dont need to carry the clear one as a spare when the police stop you and you can flip it down and raise it up easy as you ride along. ideal for summer evenings and the blinding sun in the winter!

Good place to get gloves from are motorbike shows. got all my git from the BMF tail end show in peterborough. Great bargains to be had on old lines. My helmet was same price as main dealers though. got a perfect condition new Frank Thomas Aqua jacket in red and black for £65.

Take it easy mate.

Hi mate that is a really nice lid, what colour did you go for

cheers

Thanks mate yeah it's just to get me through my test then I will upgrade

Thanks again
