Title: Womens Gear on the Cheap
Post by: raulduke on February 01, 2009, 08:25:00 AM
So I never really considered riding two up...at least not seriously with my Monster however, I have recently purchased a 1977 BMW R100S (with a cool little cafe faring, all original except for a a solid red re-spray).  I am thinking this will be a pretty good "two up" bike and my wife has shown some interest.

Question is I am not sure how comfortable she will be and how often she will want to ride and therefore don't want to spend a ton of money out of the gate on "gearing her up".  Any thoughts on quality but affordable womens gear?  I am already searching used on Ebay, which begs a second question...any reviews of the Astars Dyno jacket for girls?

Thanks.

I recommend NewEnough.com.

I've gotten a ton of my gear from there.

What size is she?

I have a Cortech (http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com//1/2/49/913/ITEM/Tour-Master-Womens-Cortech-Magnum-Leather-Jacket.aspx) leather jacket that is too small for me, sitting in the closet.  It is a Ladies medium (10-12). 

PM me if you're interested. 

+1 for NewEnough.   [thumbsup]

I have a pair of First Gear Women's Mesh Tex Pants sz. 10 (never worn) that I could let go for $35...+shipping.

If she has itty bitty hands I have a pair of A* SP3 gloves in XS I can let go. Long fingers and skinny in the palm. I can measure if interested. I ended up buying some Held gloves because the A* just weren't the right fit gloves for me.
