Do you gear up when riding?

If the strong Japanese Yen is the reason behind increases in Komine products, then I pray that Rjays products are super cheap now, because the Aussie dollar has weakend significantly too.

[dragonforce]

AUS$ not really weakend as its about 1 for 1 now? if it was S$1 to A$1.3.. wah that will be good..

 

anyway, how much is mw selling komine jk412 now? the full mesh jacket..

yeah.. wanted to exchange some A$.. now too late..

 

actually.. isn't now a good time to buy aussie dollars if u speculate that it will rise in value against the SGD in the future? Me investment noobie.. Don't quote me.

[GuiNNeSS]

The Aussie dollar has been hoverin around 1.01 now for a few months already, back to what it used to be several years ago.

[dragonforce]

yes you are right pplater.. i misread neo's reply.. i was saying if the exchange rate was like S$1 to A$1.3 then it would be good since their $ is weaker than ours. then he quote saying it was A$1.3 to S$1 a few months back and i read wrongly. i am also an investment noobie.. you can edit your reply that you quote me already.. haha.

 

so how much is the jk412 komine full mesh selling at mw recently?

[Orleng]

No idea how much that komine jacket is, but don't bother going down to the lavender st one till next monday. went just now, they closed for CNY. thank goodness my workplace was just a short trip away.

[CMYRS]

maybe its just me, but I find some of rjays products sadly lacking the Ozzie built quality, no?

Brand is OZ, but don't tink its made there.. Like most other jacket, shld be made in China. Correct me if i'm wrong, i never own Rjays before. Wanted to get one.. But looking at the quality.... maybe i went wrong plc to look for Rjays stuff, LAB...

if its made in Oz, i doubt the price will be so cheap.

got a black rjay octane from lab at 170.. The problem is that tis jacket is kinda long at the sleeve for me, so the elbow guard always slip below my elbow. But i managed to zhng up a velcro so tat i can strap up the elbow guard.. not bad after all..

 

Saw a forummer selling his L size komine air stream for 179 only.. too bad i got my jacket already if not sure get his one

[Pplater]

the rjay octane one huh.. i don't think the lower armour piece is meant for the elbows. Its supposed to be located at the fore-arm, between the elbows and wrists.

I guess it's difference in designing... but from what is see, the rjays' octane jacket should be quite lasting lah... except for the velcros which might wear out over time...

[Topnut]

My bro owns a mesh Komine jacket and I think it is great because it comes with spine protection, shoulders and elbow armor. The cost was also great which is about $210.

[dragonforce]

any other full mesh jackets to recommend that's in the region of $100+? komine 412 dun have my size, rs taichi size also limited, i am not too impressed with rjay octane but i wont rule that out..

 

how useful is the waterproof inner lining? do you all use it or prefer to just wear your normal raincoat over?

Umm... well... you can start your search at Motoworld... They should have a wide variety of mesh jackets to choose from...

 

As for the waterproof inner lining, I really feel that it's too hot for S'pore. I don't use it at all even though it comes together with my other Clover mesh jacket.
