Will do, although I don't plan on doing any riding in the rain.

I'm happy with that. It's Cordura fabric which I've seen on more expensive stuff too.

I'm struggling to find a website for the brand though. All searches lead to Amazon.

Yes they do.

Also, shoulder and hip protection not mentioned in the photos.

I've just picked up a Jet branded jacket and pair of trousers from Amazon. Under £100 for both, but they looked the part so I ordered them so I could take a closer look.

They arrived today and are very comfortable, not too heavy and seem to be very well specced.

Do any of you guys and girls have any experience of them?

Thanks for all the comments, I have had great fun reading.

I've just ordered one of these

I really like it, and the guys at work can take the piss if they like

I too like that design, but as a firefighter I would get no end of grief for having a helmet with 999 plastered down both sides.

You even quoted my request for a simple yes or no answer, I really didn't want a debate.

A simple yes or no please.

Yes, of course I have tried one on. I have also seen favourable reviews for the Box, it is in the Top Ten under £100 on Motorcycle News.

Hopefully your experience was not of this model.

I thought it looked pretty good, it scored 4 Stars, and would stand out reasonably well in the dark (it was also cheap!). What do you think?

Come on you lot, you all want to look a certain way. Why have you chosen your helmet, and I am talking about the look you consider after the fit and safety tests.

If a helmet had 5 star safety and fitted perfectly, would you choose a plain one or one with graphics, and why?

Is it necessary to look like a power ranger in order to have sufficient abrasion protection to avoid road rash? That guy looks like he's wearing a tracksuit, not proper Textile Motorcycle trousers.

NO, not mine and not leather, but you get the point.

Ha ha, I knew it wouldn't take long to get a bit of banter going!

best advice about leathers is keep em as black as possible!

Bring out the gimp!!

I am looking for my first set of motorbike clothing, but don't fancy looking like I'm dressed for a fetish party in skin tight leathers, so I'm looking for an alternative.

What are my options?

PS - If I have offended anyone with my comments I apologise, I am just hoping for a reaction
