Hello all, please refer to my post in the new member section. The buyer has approved the deal so I figure it's safe to post some pix of my "new" bike
Please please give comments. In particular I'd like some links and ideas on gear (helmet,jacket,gloves,pants,boots) that matches or looks good with this distinctive color! Hope to learn alot from you all, and don't hesitate to give suggestions and such as this is my first bike. Hope you enjoy the pix!
PS- I'd love to get together with experienced riders in the Miami, FL area

Thanks! Any recommendations on good gear and color choices in this ultra hot climate?

i use a Joe Rocket mesh (all black) in hot weather - pics in my gallery. i also have a blue/white Joe Rocket textile that matches the blue on my bike for cooler weather. for ultimate protection though - can't beat leather.

im from around new orleans, so i know all about hot and huuuuuuuuuumid weather. i agree with getting a nice mesh jacket, look for some light summer riding gloves. most helmets ive worn get pretty hot in our kind of weather regardless, so your best bet with that it just leave the visor cracked open a bit.

Cool, any particular brand recommendations? I think the shop I plan on buying from had Joe Rocket and Fieldshear<-- but I'm sure I could order whatever. I just wanted to ensure proper fit by a pro. Also, color recommendations for the gear so I at least look decent on such a strange color bike?
