Any good? fancy some leathers now instead of the gore-tex weather proof stuff.
They seem reasonably priced; looking specifically at this: http://www.rst-moto.com/index.php/pr...to_rift_mens2/

i have jacket and trousers by RST. i think they're a pretty good entry level bit of kit. there's better out there but there's also a heck of a lot worse.
had mine 4 years, had to get them repaired when zip which attaches trousers to jacket came unstitched but was done under guarantee with no quibbles. |

Gene Genie? what's that? Yeh I know the £169 is for jacket only.
Isn't that a bit contradictory!? The stitching comes undone but they're good leathers?! Which ones are the best for that sort of money?

talking about me again.
![]() i,ve seen the kit in question priced in the shops at £330, i got it at a fair price. not worn it yet cos its my sunday best. ![]() i do wear a 2-piece rst suit that has served me well (all year round, everyday). 2 yr old and still going. the stitching has only come away a little where you zip them together , and thats because i walk around with the jacket hanging off me and putting undue strain on the zips. not the best kit in the shop by no means, but by far not the worse. |
