Welcome to biking ! This depends on your budget and the type of bike you buy I guess. First recommendation..as your only in farnborough, get yourself dwon to J&S in Newbury as they normally have some bargains kicking about. Second recommendation...deffo an Arai Helmet...one saved my life...the best IMO. If your after a budget 2 peice leather racing suit, the Hein Gericke Tribal suit is excellent for £300..its won awards. Gloves..my last few pairs of alpinestars/Spidis/nankais have been much of a muchness..check stitching quality and protection around key areas. Boots - cant go wrong with sidis and they have different versions to suit different budgets...good luck..let us know how you get on !! If your in the market for a 600 monster (cheap insurance and restrictable) give me a shout...my '97 4500 mile one is up for sale very soon..!! Cheers Nat [Edited on 11-6-2004 by Nattyboy] |
