    Telling people he bought a pair of second hand gloves somewhere is not particularly helpful either.

    Rukka are not cheap but regarded as a top brand. Excellent quality and will last at high quality for 8-10 years.

    Huge sizes, i expect hence the price.

    would pick one up no problem if they were my size.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,998 ✭✭✭Wossack


    beige only

    size wise seems to be somewhere between M and L in alpinestars sizing, so not the tent sizing you may expect..!

    €999 for a jacket?? Is it bullet proof?

    Would'nt think it is but Rukka gear is very expensive. If you do the mileage it is deffinitely worth it and with a no hassle 5 year warranty. Have mine 7 years and is still 100% waterproof

    They say 50 and 56 chest. What mediums are you looking at?

    They are the best in the market for waterproof and longevity. You won't find one matching it but as such the price is super high the materials are all completey premium so not really the run of the mill branding stuff that occurs

    Northern Ireland Motorbike show on this weekend comming.
    Some trade stalls at it,so there may be some haggling and bargains to be had up there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,936 ✭✭✭stewygriffin


    My socks and compression tops arrived today from chain reaction cycles.

    The top and socks are a perfect fit,top is very lightweight,but by golly its warm and also breathable.

    The sizing chart on the website is bang on too.:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,936 ✭✭✭stewygriffin


    Bought some of the Aldi adjustable table top clamps this morning.
    Ok for holding some threaded rod or bolts to cut down to size,but thats about it.

    Avoid the suction one,its crap.

    Plenty of bargains to be had at the Northern Ireland bike show.
    Got a BMW Motorrad jacket for 35 quid and picked up a few Tech 3 Yamaha t-shirts too.
    Also got a set of tyres from Crossans stand for the S1000rr at a good price.
    Have a test ride booked with Philip McCallans for next week.

    Bike show finishes today,so maybe even better bargains to be had on the last day.
