I have the Demak bike which is always showing false neutral but the bike can start. Got caught off guard a few times like jaycee1 and now it is a habit of pulling in the clutch to start any bike.

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

Can try welly advance bikers at batu caves as well. They have quite good stock the last time I was there. There is also Sunny cycle for komine and RST

I have touring pants from Komine and Revit. Tested the slide function on both and safe to report that they held up well. Just got a new pair of touring pants from Komine as well and this has the connector zipper to the jacket to make it sort of one piece. Komine pants comes with knee protector as a std but hip protector depends on the model of the pants. Some comes as a std but some only has foam padding

Felt the cut on the Revit are too low. When on the bike feels like I am showing butt crack to the world.

Can try RS Taichi as well.

The one I currently have is the Komine JK-158 Jacket and Komine PK-746 pants. These joins together from the front of the waist and zips round to the other side. Both are mesh so are very well ventilated

I got the Shark Spartan GT Kromium instead of the GT Pro as it was the discontinued 22.05 version the shop gave me an additional discount. Sadly I had to retired it after 3 months of use as I went down on the bike with it but glad to report that it held up as it should.

Has better airflow than the Shoei and HJC and the visor is smoother indentation. The sun shield also covers more than the other 2 helmets

It depends. I had an accident on my Shoei and has minor scratches on the lid and visor and I am still using it.

As for the Shark, attached are the photos of the helmet

This is the best method imho. Get a retractable lanyard and just need to unzip the top part of the jacket to access the card. I do this for my housing access card as well but so far all the parking i went to have a gap enough for bikes to pass by

It all depends on individual. I started with steel toes safety boots then upgraded to low cut boots and now wearing high boots. Looking to get the Sidi Adventure 2 as they are suitable for wide feet and has my size.

Gloves are about the same as boots. started with the street gloves and now wearing full gauntlet due to the wind pushing my jacket sleeves up which I did not like.

I use waterproof socks if I roughly know the weather will open up during the ride but everytime i wear the socks it doesn't rain
