Shift road gear

[Quasievil]

Had a fair bit of shift dirt gear over the years just wondering what the road gear is like like the look of the jackets and gloves.

Liking the look is all good and relevant, but dont forget the main purpose of a Jacket is to hold up and perform in a crash.
the fundamental questions you should ask or find out about are
1/ Leather grade and thickness
2/ Armour
3/ And very importantly is the type and the number of stitches in the seams
4/ the Fit, correct size etc

When deciding on any gear those are the main questions to ask yourself.
If you can tick the boxes on these then youre sweet.

Thanks thats the main think finding gear I like the look off at a good price but also knowing its going to its job well when I come off.

Might be worth looking into gear from the states with the current dollar I do classic car Restoration and deal with a heap of guys bringing containers over from the states on a regular basis save a heap on shipping.

Shifts makes quality road jacket. I have got the Octane leather one, and can say it's very well made.

One thing you need to be aware is their sizing. I am small framed (174cm ~70 kg) so I usually go for the size small clothing. But for the Octane I had to wear the Medium size. The small is really really small!

other than that it has served me well. So go for it if it fits you right

i have a shift jacket, its a summer weight but its well made and should be up to the task of saving skin in 1 decent accident. (hope i dont need to try it out).

if it's an Avenger style, it's a good summer Jkt. Shift has a lot of well priced gear.

I've got Shift overpants for on the dirt bike.


so try not to test the new jkt, babe.



maybe even get a new tyre before you touch canvas

Yes the Avenger. A great jacket. Picked it up in Aust. Lovely chick help me pick it out....

I was thinkin' of getting one of them Qmoto leatherjackets - looks good quality, and styly enough - what youse reckon bout them?

Give Bret a call. You can probably cruise round to his place and try some on for fit and you can check out the quality for yourself. He's a straight-up guy and probably won't hold it against you if you decide it's not for you

When you say probably won't hold it against you does that mean he might possibly lose it or unleash the hungry looking rottweilers or what?
