Information on Revzilla was complete. The package arrived 2 days ahead of the expected delivery. Instructions were clear about fitting and wiring. Installation was accomplished by following the steps, getting the grips off is always a challenge even with an upgraded air compressor. The grips are nice and toasty for the morning commute. I installed the grips as a back-up to heated gloves, one failed on a trip, since has been replaced by the manufacturer. Warm hands are definitely are better for safety. With these heated grips you don't have to stop to change to heavier gloves the day cools off on a day trip. The high setting is good the get the grips up to temperature and then the lower setting works for keeping maintaining. I would recommend these. A word of advice, before you buy take the grips off and see if you have a knurled surface on the bars, be prepared to grind this down, otherwise it's a piece of cake.

The humidity in the Mid-Atlantic area is the sweaty issue. This suit make ride feel like shirt sleeve with armor. The knee pads can be adjusted to be very comfortable, just takes a little patence. You can keep the suit on if you take a trip to the supermarket, very comfortable to wander around in epic ventilation. I have the yellow reflective strips which do get you noticed, highly recommended for commuting.
In traffic you can feel the abient breeze, so no baking at the stop lights.

The mesh ventilation in the legs prevents my dress pants from being pressed into multiple creases, I can wear a suit to the office and not have to have it uncreased once I get to work.
This is a great value, does exactly what is expected, fit is nominal. You can be cool, look cool and be protected.
Ordering was easy, delivery was ahead of time. Great purchasing experience.
Yes, I recommend this product.

The boots arrived and fit snugly. The two position latch closing is a good feature.
The padding on the left boot did not quite go up to cover the seam about 2" below the lip of the boot on the outside. I used a piece of foam to buffer the seam but now the boots are more supple I don't need it.
Plan on walking around in the boots for a while just to mold them to your feet and introduce a bit of flex to the upper.
They are comfortable, great grip, easy to put on and provide a lot of protection.

Fit like a glove! Fingers are long enough and shaped for operating your machine. The outer does get soaked but the inner liner keeps you dry. I use these a lot they are very comortable and a good seal to the arms.
Give good tactile feel. I like them. The wiper on the left finger works very well once you get the action.
The double layer does not make you sweat even at 92F with the sun beating down.

Shoei Multitec Helmet
PostedSeptember 21, 2010
Watched the product video to understand how the helmet works. Checked how to size the helmet. Reviewed the return policy (very good) incase needed. Helmet came well packed. fitted like a snug glove, met all the helmet fit tests. Having spent some time in it, it is part of me. Excellent product and service. This is my first helmet now I'm getting back into riding after many years. I looked at many helmets before choosing this style, being able to hold a conversation clearly when stopped without pulling everything off is great, particularly in the rain! The visor clears well.
Thanks Shoei and Revzilla for representing it accurately.

Is the Stealth One Piece Mesh Tech Suit water resistant?

How small does the suit fold down to?
Can you fold it/roll it so that it fits into a knapsack for easy transport?
The armor pads limit the size you can get the suit down to. It will fit in my saddle bag on my FJR along with gloves. It will probably go into a a pack the size of a briefcase or small backpack. Pack the suit so that the back protector is on the outside. Keep the pockets reasonably empty really helps.

I have a 2012 Triumph Tiger 800 roadie, are these warmers a fit?
I put these on my FJR1300, the clutch side internal grip diameter is 22mm and 100 mm long. The heat pad wraps round the metal of the handlebar tube, then the grip slides over the top. The heat pad is only about 80mm long and is placed to maximize the heat to the hand. The throttle side is lager and the heat pad fits the same way.
