    It appears the elbow, shoulder and back armour is sold separately? Do they have any sort of protection that come with them or are they just the jacket?

    It appears the price is good if they truly keep dry… Any chance of getting a jacket before next friday? :laugh: :laugh:

    They only come with the jacket as standard mate , armor sold seperate.
    If you want a large I have one I can bring ?

    Did you buy the Armour?
    The one you have Black? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    You reckon a large would fit me?

    I have only one set of armor but a large jacket which would fit you , if you want it you will need to buy armor. I was going to send it back to Steve tomorrow so if you want it let me know and arrange to pay Steve ;).

    After a bit of juggling with the sizes ADV MOTO Steve sent me a heap of gear and the black suit fits perfectly.

    This is the 1st black sold suit in oz ;)

    Nick, Good review. You must have a very understanding wife. First she buys you the gear and then she lets you stand on the table whilst she takes a photo of it. Maybe you have an ugly melon though as she made you keep the helmet on and even then she cut your head out of the photo.

    Sounds like it’s good gear.

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Yeah Bundy I’ve got a good head for radio mate !!!

    I have just got the Forcefeild action shirt armor and crash tested it at the Bello ride :D .
    It worked well and was cool. Not sure of cost as it was a present but I don’t think they’re that cheap.

    When I first got the suit I felt the jacket may be a touch large so Steve from Adventure Moto was happy for me to return it and promptly sent me a smaller size. Once I got the second jacket I felt that it was maybe a little tight in the shoulders so tail between my legs I went back to Steve who was more than happy to send me the original back and told me to keep the smaller one until I was sure ;)

    During the conversation he mention they now come in black and asked if I wanted a complete black suit sent up !!! He said I’d have the first in Australia so I went for it :D :D

    That has to be some of the best service I have ever had , not only does he put up with me being indecisive about the size but he says to keep all the gear he’s sent and offered a new range and only when I’m happy to sent back the other gear that doesn’t fit.

    Now you wouldn’t get that overseas ;)

    The big test is coming up for this suit with a 8 day outback ride with a good chance of rain , I’ll let you know how it goes :)
