I was told by Team moto that Icon gear was going to be imported mid year because of the amount of interest. Dunno if these lids are pre-approved though??

Hey Fimp, i bought an Icon jacket off the net through these guys
http://www.kneedraggers.com/

I can recommend them, smooth transaction.
But i'm pretty sure there are no distributors in Aust.

ive got the icon ti-max gloves (full glove not short)
my normal size is L-for the dri rider dry-mesh glove
the icon is XXL for same fit also thay'll take some time to break in. i possibly could had gone for a XL but thay have'nt got wet yet.

got the ti-max mesh jacket & field armour boots on the way in the post. i went for my normal sizeing with these.

yes it is expencive if you get the wrong size REMEMBER u.s.a sizing for helmets are different to over here well with simpson anyway.
i got one size too big 7 3/8 instead of 7 3/4 so now saveing for the RX8 speedway & diamond.

Do you guys get HJC? They're made by the same parent company and fit the same.

My Icon is a Medium and I fit the girlfriends Medium Arai just fine.
Same with HJC; Medium. I tried on a Suomy, and the Shoei, but my head does not agree with the shape, of those lids, so I couldn't really tell you one way or the other with them.

What brands do you guys have in Oz? I'm guessing AGV, Shoei, Suomy and Arai, since those are all high end helmets.

im getting more and more used to that jacket...

can i get close ups of the gloves?
i read that they "flip-up" when u close your fist
whats that about??

i read some pretty scary reviews about the mainframe helmet
things about vents popping off and the visor release system being unreliable
think i might swing clear
