[sels1]

So what is the general agreement about RJays stuff?

I have RJays cordura gear and found it good value for money....but I havnt crash tested it.

Iwant to buy a laether jacket made by them this year, but if there stuff is shit then where else is there to go?

Have you checked out Quasi's gear? See his ad on KB homepage. A fellow KBer, and good guy to deal with

wife brought my 2 piece suit in aussie when i was over there for my honey moon few years back, first time i been able to find a suit that fitted me off the rack.

we been married about 3 1/2 years now, held up good, few rub marks from where i put my bag over my sholder. But i have never been down on them, never plan on either. But leather is plenty thick, and sitching as is all good

Don't know about the leathers, but as a comparison the KBC VR-2 Road/Race helmet is also made with a "composite epoxy" aka fibreglass shell. It costs $329 AUD for a plain helmet and $399 AUD for a graphics helmet. That compares with $229 AUD for the RJays GP-1 plain colour and $249 AUD for the GP-1 graphics helmet.

Wife landed a two piece Alpinestars suit in NZ for $1,000. If you want a decent brand you don't have to pay a fortune for it!

Co-pilot has had a pair of RJays leather jeans for about 3 years now.
Still in good order.
I was wearing some before I lost a heap of weight.
We both rated the brand as good value for money when we bought it at Parramatta.

I have an RJays jacket I would recommend.

Is there any more news on the helmets? My missus is keen on the pink one (typical) but it does make a nice difference from the black/white and will look awesome when she is on her street magic

[Cajun]

Where did she get that?

ebay dude.

[Cajun]

wife was a bit worried about that, but she measued all her bits and pieces, and got the suit that matches best, eg alpinestar as a guide to what size suit will fit what size inseam etc etc etc.

I've got an R-Jays leather jacket I've crashed twice in - no upper body injuries - jacket is a bit fucked though - in one crash I wore cordura trousers with padding and I still limp and have to go to physio.

It (the jacket) did exactly what it said on the tin as far as I'm concerned.

I found it difficult to get a reasonably priced leather jacket with hard armour that wasn't black. The R-Jays seemed to be the only one with a big block of colour for under $800 - other than that it's wearing one of those high visibility vests that flap about in the wind like a sail bleeding a good 10% of the power of a 250!

I have a RJays Razor helmet that I got off Trademe but I want a smoked visor or something that they have on their website, where do we go in NZ for that does anyone know who their importer is if any?

[FruitLooPs]

Woah, this threads 2 years old!

I was thinking, I don't see the big fuss about getting hold of Rjays gear i've had mine for years now ..


Anyhow, to answer the last question - first post of this thread mentions the importer ..


"Yes,the RJays helmets will be available in NZ,available thru PRV imports (64 9 820 3512).And yes,there is a tinted visor available (RJH7VDS),RRP is $39.95."

Not sure if people get annoyed with thread dredges or not here on KB.

i bought an rjays razor helmet in new zealand over a year and a half ago. the visor scratches quite easy and the ive had to re glue the little plastic vent things on, not that they ever realy closed properly anyway.

[NighthawkNZ:Me]

I have RJays Cordura Evo jacket and trousers and I great I highly recommend them. They both have zipped vents for the hot days and both are lined for the cooler ones. I haven't the problem other people have had with other brands about the crutch leaking in the rain... but like anything in continuous heavy rain it will eventually give...

I am going back to leather but will be keeping the cordura, so I can pick and choose...

[dreamer87]

i picked the helmet up for next to nothing so I cant complain. Ive tried geting intouch with PRV Imports but cant???

for the money, RJays are not bad stuff at all. Got some cool graphic helmets like the samurai series
