Woohoo, back on the bike today for me too, for the first time since my accident.
New kit performed well, but my new back protector makes my jacket very snug and stops the Leatt brace wings sitting flat on my trapezius' unfortunately. Just need to sort that and break the pads in on my new (snug!) lid.
Was great to be back on the bike and within a few metres I felt back at home and while quite cautious I opened her up on some A roads, and pulled a wicked 1st gear power wheelie near home too

t really, but I thought i'd be slow as st in a straight line too, so that was a relief.Just gotta get my kit working well together now. My old A* jacket is too snug with the back protector, so I'll have to be on the lookout for another textile jacket, as the other that fits fine i'm not finding too comfy - more money!
Having fiddled with the Leatt brace settings, it's better now, the back protector meant I had to open it up a lot more. It's not perfect yet though, but if I persevere with one bit of kit, it will be the Leatt brace!
My one piece is too tight with my back new back protector, but not surprised, cause it was like a second skin before - will have to sell that - a shame, as it's literally race fit (hunched walk and all haha) without my new Knox Aegis.

I agree. Monsters stickers are for loosers...damn it
I did partly think of your bike when I wrote it. You're ok in my book as your bike wss free. Yazza gave good money for his!
Oh and no Ryan I haven't got the shock yet. It's now gone up to £30 with p&p and I'll still have to machine brackets etc when it arrives!
All to sell the VFR for a few more pennies in pursuit of a litre sports bike.

Wonder how he hurt his wrist?! That wee thing looks a riot. Though perhaps not the time and place for it in that vid. Mr OCD said:
What like your 'all the gear - no idea' pictures? 
I was being lazy ... In the flesh they are very very nice quality wise ... Won't be fitting them till next month though.
So no guarantee they'll fit properly then...? I was being lazy ... In the flesh they are very very nice quality wise ... Won't be fitting them till next month though.
Meanwhile, my Diamond (Chinese) ones arrived after a chasing phone call last week.
