Haven't used them but riden with a few guys in them - look good and by all reports are good (I specially like the collar arrangement) - check out moto mail they've got the "off track" real cheap at the mo.

Looking at their site now, thanks, have not been to it before.

The sand jacket is surprisingly short in the body (Euro style). Recommended that you match them with the pants. Wellington M/cycles also stocks them if you want to try them.

I think the Sand jacket & pants features are several steps up from the Off track, which is the superceded model.

I am aiming to replace my gear with them. Would have purchased dec, but got a new stove instead. .....go figure.

I'm using rev'it jacket and pants and swear by them.

Good tip thanks, I tried on a KTM jacket last year and sat on a bike with it on, that really showed how short that jacket was, not good at all. I will try a Rev'it on before going further.

I have a Rev'it Jacket.
I'd had it for about 11 months when I mention to the guys at Boyds that it was leaking on a coupla seams and that one of the wrist straps had fallen off.

It was replaced in a week.

Another option maybe, I just bought a Dririder Summit 2 pro jacket, they are on sale at present from 499 to 299, it is a great jacket at a great price.

Looking at the Revit sand pants as well now ... just too much $$$$ at this point

Definitely need some pants as crutch gone on existing ones. Breathable, largely waterproof with armour needed. Good call on the Revit pants-the Summit Pro pants fall apart acc to ADVrider chat. German guy passed me on a Beemer in torrential rain in the Lewis but stayed dry-said he bought the gear in Germany but was not interested in divulging the manufacturer.Most likely BMW also though.

I heard the same about the summit pro pants, anyone have experience with teh rallycross pants?

I think young1 is headed in the right direction to be honest.

... so how about a mass purchase of Revit sand pants at a big discounted rate for KBers?


Interest?

I would be very keen on bulk deal. Must be a few other ADV riders ie OMCC not on KB who might be interested also. Does this mean we could all wear matching gear and call ourselves a gang? ;-)

My current jacket is a Dri Rider (not sure what model) and it is very very good. My pants are nothing special but they do a very good job.

My only concern with the Rev'it jackets is the length of them when sitting on the bike. I do like the look of the pants.

I wonder what price we can find them on the web out of England etc? Has anyone looked further afield than Moto mail?

The price that we can get them here is not bad compared to the US. I did consider a private import from Rev-silla.

I understand that they are made in Holland, so maybe a dutch shop?

I would be interested in a bulk buy, but the advantage of buying here is that you can try them on & also return them if seams etc let go.

I'm on my 2nd set of Rev It gear and I've had no problems with them.
Make that 3rd. My first one did leak but as someone else mentioned, it was replaced right there and then. No questions asked.
I've been in some horrid rain falls and huge winds at the same time and had no leaks.
Pretty good stuff IMO.
The Dri rider is suppose to be value for money i hear also.

[young1]

I will see what I can find online re pricing overseas. But the benefit of local is trying it on first.

My Dri Rider has never leaked but saying that when I have ridden with it on in rain I normally put a rain jacket over the top of it also.
