The hand-me-down thread

Teknic leather jacket, free to a good home. Size as indicated, safe to say around XL. Never been in a skid and bug spooge included. Located Pokeno-ish and can't be arsed shipping but I've been known to travel around Te Norf Island. Tilt your head to view pics and don't come at me with any cheeky shit or I'll call you an egg.

Actually, I think it's a conspiracy. The entire clothing industry seems to be in on it. I blame the Pakistani's but best not go off topic, eh?

I can not see me getting another bike and with a possible shift coming up sometime I am clearing out my gear.

It is all give away stuff and I am not interested at all in finding out postage costs etc, this is pick up only or forget it.

I live in Te Awamutu so if you are keen and local, a good chance to pick up some used gear for zilch.

I'll start with the helmets. The HJC R-PHA-10 is well used. Never been in a fall but the inner padding needs replacing. This has been my main helmet and I will probably bin it. There is a tinted visor that has been used twice. Size M 57.

The Zeus is a M 57, rarely used, heavy but comfortable.

The open face helmets, the FFM is clean and unmarked. The HJC needs a new visor. Both are L's.

1 pr nylon over trousers.

1 pr rain boots. Size 46-47. These have a zip with velco flap, rubber soles.

1 pr throw over saddle bags. Old and well used, large with duc tape patch work in places.

A tail seat bag that has bungee's to hook onto the bike.

1 pr new hand guards that bolt onto the bars. The right side bracket would not fit between the switch block and the master cylinder so never used.

1 sports bar frame for a venture rack frame. 25.5mm centres.

3 pr gloves, well used but ok for spares. about medium size.

Neck warmer, never used, a few balaclarva's.

I can only post 6 attachments per post so will throw the rest onto a following post.

Here are a few more photos of the stuff I am getting rid of.

Also a set of elbow and knee protection pads that I have (occasionally) worn over my jeans and shirt.

In ,T A at the moment awa. Phone message on your one. At the Peach and Pork.
Dinner was brilliant, most unexpected but very welcome,our hosts did us proud, we'd go back to The Long Acre Peach and Porker anytime.
Good news, we got in touch with awa355 and I'd like to say a big thank you to awa355 for the items he bestowed upon me, I now no longer to need to source new gloves, in fact I have 2 sets of near new ones.
The Hand guards look likely to fit and once more a big thnaqk you to awa355.
Had a brilliant night ride back to Dorkland Te Pahu road went begging but the back roads up the side of the Nile(Waikato) river are good and open.
Come on you lot awa is giving away some damn fine equipment because he's simply not got a use for it anymore, it's all great gear and I'm sure he'd just like to see it get used by other bikers.
Thanks again awa and don't be a stranger, Kb is still your home.

Anyone have any ladies' gear available? My other half is 160cm size 10 and I'm not willing to take her pillion until she's protected - but not necessarily ready to go buy her own gear yet. If you have hand-me-downs it would be appreciated!

I see Awa355 has stuff and I go through there reasonably-often, but looks like it's all guy-sized.

Ask him Hubris, I believe he still has a ladies size helmet, maybe some gloves.
Worth an ask and he's a brilliant bloke to boot.

+1 on that,

rode just a few ks, here and there with him - brilliant

still don't know how he remembers all the road names - perfectly.

even did the odd k or 2, in some gravel - ya don't need an offroad bike for that - don't ya know.

Jeez that must suck. ... I don't envy you 😂 thanks for that, I really appreciate it it'll still be earlier than I can afford to buy a new pair

Sorry about the delay in coming back to you. Was allowed back in last Wed, and have been crazy busy getting my shit back in there and together. If you still need/want them, they're all yours. PM me a delivery address, and I'll get them away to you.
