pokie posted:I can't say about the UK. In the US I bought insurance same day as the bike. I just called them on the phone. It's a good idea to get quotes in advance and shop around assuming you know the model of the bike you are getting. Some insurers here charges 3 times more than others.

Just bought a new jacket on closeout. http://www.motorcyclecloseouts.com/sport/leather+motorcycle+jackets/alpinestars_gp+plus+r+leather+jacket+ I went for leather, with CE padding, and some ability to wear in fall/spring as well as summer. How'd I do?

Thanks for the input and advice, my dudes. Glad to see I picked a good one at a decent price. Reading through this thread def helped with narrowing it down.Butt Reactor posted:Finished my BRC and got the completion card, now off to the DMV later this week to do the written test and get my endorsement

Snagged a pair of Alpinestars GP Plus Leather gloves on closeout for cheap. Holy poo poo, they are tight. Kind of thinking this might be normal/good, because that means they'll stay on really well and they may expand a bit over time. Can anybody chime in?

-Inu- posted:They should be pretty tight, but not so tight that they're cutting off circulation or anything. They will stretch quite a bit. Go put some leather conditioner on them and go ride for an hour or two. They'll break in much quicker. Also, if you're making a fist to see how tight they are, remember that you're going to be holding onto your handlebars so the leather isn't going to pull as much. My A* jacket is supposed to show up tomorrow, so pretty stoked!
