Being comfortable and having a proper fitting helmet is obviously important so its nice having the option of tailoring the fit of your shiney new helmet.
Having to fork out extra money after an already expensive helmet purchase kinda sucks but at least if you bought your helmet here at Revzilla you can use your Revzilla cash to ease the pain a bit. These cost me $12 out of pocket after buying my helmet so that's not too bad overall I suppose...

Shoei Neotec Borealis Modular Helmet The Neotec Borealis graphic offers a high-vis option to the Neotec lineup. Evolving on previous designs, Shoei has revamped its modular helmet style with a streamlined and attractively sculpted shape that conveys the feel of freely moving through the outdoors in the Shoei Neotec Modular Helmet. Overall shell size is kept compact by incorporating the internal sun visors open/close mechanism inside all ventilation mechanisms are shaped and positioned in such a way as to reduce any possible drag. A redesigned aerodynamic spoiler also helps to cut lift, reducing neck strain on long, cross country rides. In the Shoei Neotec all these features combine to create a premium helmet that excels in appearance, protection, comfort and performance. The Shoei Neotec Borealis Helmet's chin bar is connected to the same axis point and mechanism as its shield, minimizing extra parts. This also enables simultaneous closing of the shield with the chin bar, which is then held in place with an easy-open lock release button. The shield lock system offers secure closure or the ability to keep the shield slightly open to allow for increased airflow. With the Shoei Neotec Helmet, Shoei now includes a built-in sun shield, the QSV-1. The visor tucks neatly away beneath a non-intrusive shell built into the helmets liner, and can be lowered with the easy control of a sliding button. Face Shield Features Easily operable lever mechanism Anti-fog, anti-scratch, 99 UV blocking New Pinlock-ready CNS-1 faceshield Wider and taller than the CX-1V that it replaces Includes Pinlock insert 3D injection molding process ensures a distortion-free view Improved Ventilation and Aerodynamics Newly designed vortex generators pull air through helmet 276 more airflow than Multitec Added inlets and outlets Vents are flush against helmet to maintain aerodynamics 5-Ply Shock-Absorbing Fiber Shell 3 shell sizes AIM Multi-Composite construction Lightweight yet strong Shell-integrated spoiler reduces lift and drag during high-speed riding Dual EPS Liner Multi-density EPS for optimal protection Two vents funnel fresh air through the EPS liner Dual liner channels route and disperse air evenly throughout the helmet EPS liner in chin bar All new interior Fully removable 3D interior liner Top center pad is removable and washable Improved cheekpad design allows better fit with eyeglasses Included chin curtain can be inserted into the chin bar to reduce turbulence and noise All Neotec Helmets sold in the US have a double D-ring closure Note Helmet is gloss finish.

I was debating my next helmet purchase all winter so I did a fair amount of research and settled on the Neotec. I had high expectations and the Neotec met or exceeded all of them.
It looks fantastic in the Borealis graphic with a deep glossy finish and really nice gold flake pin-striping. The fit was tight at first but didn't take long to break in. I used my Revzilla cash from the helmet to pick up the 31mm cheekpads for only a couple bucks so that eased the sting of having to fork out even more $$$ to get the proper fit. I can't comment on the fit with the stock cheekpads because I had no disillusions going in that my face was anything but chubby. With the 31mm pads the fit was excellent, maybe a bit tight around the ears but I know there is a pad behind the ears that is removeable. I used the measurement guide and the fit was excellent out of the box.
The airflow is great and I like that adjusting the airflow on the upper vent from full to half actually makes a noticeable difference. The front intake vents to the shield and did an okay job of keeping the shield clear when I rode in the first morning and had not installed the pinlock lens. Pinlock went in the next morning and its been fog free ever since.
I love the internal sun visor and simply couldn't ride without one now. I wear eyeglasses and the ability to instantly switch from clear to tint and back is so nice. The interior is indeed more glasses friendly than typical as advertised.
Overall this is a fantastic helmet, the only thing I can call a negative is the cost.

I was expecting a lot when I ordered this backpack due to its price but it actually exceeded my expectations.
I own a Kriega US30 so I am familiar with the Kriega reputation for outstanding quality and construction and the R30 is just about perfect. Two large outer pockets provides utility and ease of access. Essentially my only complaint is that the outer pockets have stiff water resistant zippers that dont function well one-handed. I'm hoping long use will wear them in but there are fairly beefy so I wont hold my breath.
Another nice feature is the 3 sets of left/right straps that allow you to secure a delicate load or cinch the bag down against a small load. One of the great things about this bag is that it holds a lot of gear at 30L but when its only 1/4 full it cinches down really well and doesnt feel or look like a 30L bag.
And now to the best feature of the bag, the harness. Its the best I've owned or used or ever tried on... Its really that good. When properly adjusted the load disappears while riding. I can't comment on its long distance touring comfort and I'm not sure I ever will as I have my US30 for touring. The R30 is my everyday commuting pack and I suspect it will be around for a long time considering the outstanding built quality and top grade materials.
The price is really a negative worth mentioning because its quite an expensive backpack. That being said, if you really value comfort, quality and take care of your gear, then the Kriega R30 is definitely an investment worth making.
Yes, I recommend this product.

It's been one season that I have been riding with these gloves and in summary, I really like them but doubt they will last more than 2 seasons.
The gloves are very light, breathe well, and provide great tactile feel. My only complaint is the apparent durability of the gloves. After one season they are showing signs of wear already, particularly around the wrist strap where the velcro on the strap often catches and frays the material on the back of the wrist.
I can't comment on the protection they might provide in a crash but they are a light summer glove and the leather on the palm area does not appear overly thick.

These are great cool weather touring gloves. They are comfortable and warm and the build quality is very good. They do need some breaking in, particularly in the pinky area where I think the extra material makes it a bit stiffer.
I would not recommend them in temperatures above 20C. I've worn them down to 5C and they were very comfortable.

I really have nothing bad to say about this bag...
- the anchor straps installed very easily on my Ninja 650
- the bag is easy to take off/put on the bike
- it holds a lot of stuff, more than I thought it would
- the finish is pure quality and it looks like a piece of gear that I will have for quite some time
- acts as a great base for adding more bags in the Kriega US line

These are great overpants for the price. They are very comfortable, provide some warmth and vent pretty well as long as you are moving.
My only real complaint is the useless snap at the bottom of the pant legs. It would be usefull if it sinched in the pant cuff so you could tighten it around your boot/ankle but it essentially does nothing...

I love these boots! The build quality is outsanding, the fit is snug so keep that in mind. I found the fit perfect for everyday commuting but I did put on a big pair of thermal socks for a cold morning ride the other weekend and found my feet going to sleep after an hour or so. I normally wear a size 12 and ordered the 47/12.5, they are still quite new so I suspect they will break in perfectly.
Also to my surprise I've found them to be pretty decent in the rain. I was in stop and go traffic the other day for about 45 minutes in the pouring rain and my feet were completely dry when I got home. A nice surprise!

At the closeout price this jacket is an absolute steal. Its very versatile and I have ridden with it in 35C+ down to 10C and raining and its performed admirably.
I got a lot of wear out of the mesh layer this summer and it flows very well as long as you keep moving. Keep in mind that your back will sweat under the back pad. I've been wearing it lately with all the layers (minus the rain layer unless needed) and its great. All zipped up with a good base layer and its quite comfortable in cooler temperatures. I wish it had more vents and more pockets but besides that its a great jacket.

Does the sunvisor work with glasses?

Is it possible to use the internal sun visor while wearing eyeglasses? I know that would depend somewhat on the eyeglasses but does anybody own one or tried one on that could comment?

Thanks.

Do these come in the size I really need?

I am female with large hips and thighs. My waist is 40, the biggest part of my thigh is 28 1/2 and I have BIG knees 24 inches and 49 inch hips.
I'm a guy but wear a size 40 pant and also have but thighs. I ordered the Overlord in size 40 and they fit great. There is plenty of adjustability at the waist and all of the stretch panel areas are very stretchy. The stretch panels run on the inside of the thigh all the way to the crotch area and there is another large stretchy area starting in the lower back and extending 1/3 of the way down the butt.

Sidi Apex boot cut

Are the Sidi Apex boots cut small or a bit bigger? I wear either an 11 for smaller cut shoes/boots or an 11.5 if the cut is bigger.
They are cut pretty true... I mostly wear a size 12 but occassionally I need a 13 and I ordered the 12.5/47 and the fit was spot on. The 11.5/46 should be perfect for you.

fitting shoes

would a pair of size 43 dainese trq race air out shoes fit in the 30 liter tail bag? I want somewhere to store my motorcycle boots when at school or work.
They should fit no problem... it holds quite a bit of stuff.

They also stretch very well along the lower back and all allow the vent/stretch panels in the inner leg/crotch.
