Looks cool. But not very comfortable to ride. Combination of the ergo and small 12" wheels make it a choppy ride tough on the wrist.


Otherwise, it's a cute little bike.

No, we haven't even gotten around to putting up an ad yet.

Ahh, I thought you put it up for sale already.

Just bought this from Hodaka motoworld. 400rm promo price ...in the size I want.

was thinking to get a papio, how was the bike?

Do they have promo on gloves ? I need to replace mine

No idea ..wasn't looking for gloves. But I'm sure you could just stop by and check them out

nice.
my favorite jacket.

JK146 and JK1463.
i have 2 and wear them a lot more than any other jacket that i have.

Yep. It's quite lightweight and ventilated....good for daily use....although the included armour is pretty crap. It's good as long and you have better armour at hand.

My only complaint is that it doesn't have belt loops and zipper to zip up to pants.

you buy better armour then tell which is the best. i follow

I'm using JK-1171 , but changed the back padding,elbow and shoulder to CE-Level 2 materials.

ive got the Komine JK-137 Carbon Mesh Protect jacket...real nice jacket but 3 things i dont really like.

1/ although the mesh looks about the same as my old RS Taichi jacket.. its quite abit warmer than my RS Taichi jacket. especially behind a big windscreen on my versys.

2/ the v-shaped opening at the neck... wish there was a velcro strap there like my RS Taichi jacket instead of the button strap at the upper side of the zipper. ive been pelted with pieces of sand and small rocks there before when following behind other bikes and goddamn it hurts.

3/ recently discovered that for some reason the collar chafes my neck by the 2nd or 3rd day of the ride..letak dettol damn stim. didnt happen on my RS Taichi or IZ2 jackets though. had to wear extra buff on the neck to stop it hurting. have also bought turtle neck compression wear coz of this.

where did you purchase the level 2 armor? komine got sell ar?

I had the Komine JK-142 jacket and loved the mesh and the amount of windflow until I crashed in it. I still have the armours and was hoping to see if they can be reused in another Komine jacket

Komine got but i bought 3rd party ones from Lazada (Brand Lyschy but in actual is Safe Tech)






I tested it with a mallet and knocking against corners and hard surfaces it seems to work fine for me.
Downside is its a lot heavier now due to thick material layer.

*Here what I bought

You can get full set or separate also just choose the parts you want.

Guys, any reviews regarding these Held shoes?

Currently looking for a pair of boots from also the same brand here, for touring purposes:

But the price is in the too cheap to be good zone..

And strangely enough all the shoes sold by this same seller are a lot cheaper than even China gears like Benkias/Arcx

If anyone looking for raincoat, I can say Givi CRS02 works great for me so far.
Every evening that is raining here in KL, Givi raincoat keeps my shirts dry.
No dripping through the wrist and neck also.

Benkia also makes surprisingly good rain gear. They have 2 types, basic and premium...the main difference is the premium has has a vent on the back. The pant is the same for both. I particularly like the pant design, where the crotch section is one gusseted piece instead of a centre seam .... (Where more failure starts)

I've had mine for 3 years. Still never leaked in the heaviest of rain And they have it in bright yellow. I can't brain black raincoats at all.

They are not cheap for a china brand, going for between 170 and 200 a set on sale. Can get from serdang motorcycle. Go test sizing and buy from shopee on promo or sale, usually on double digit sales.

But seriously only reason mine black coz i got it free when buy my z9...wanted a bright coloured one but only bright coloured ones in stock were those with rossis 46 on it from dunno wat brand...so...no thanks.

Givi dunno wat model....dont get used much....mostly folded in its plastic bag....6 years on and its still gooding when used. Last used was last november in thailand... Pretty heavy rain for abt 6hrs straight n the entire 6 hrs was dry.

hey bro.. just wanted to check difference of half mesh (JK1463) vs full mesh (JK146) riding jackets.. in terms of airflow, full mesh should be better than half mesh ri8 ?
I am currently looking to get a riding jacket for daily use..
