XS400 Addict
Hey guys, i recently posted that i'm going to be buying an 83 xs400 maxim and will be driving it from BC to Quebec.
The Update:
I got my learners permit and i have decided to take lessons to become more comfortable and learn proper technique. I will be picking up my bike once I'm done the lessons .
What I need from you wonderful people:
GEAR, I need gear for my test. They require helmet, jacket, gloves and boots. this is the statement:
So what do you guys recommend i want stuff that will last me and that will protect me during my trans-canadian trip. But at the same time i don't want to bust the bank. I want a full face/modular helmet, preferably white.
i really like this jacket but it is a little pricy (i could afford it but i'd rather spend less)

And i would like pants that look fairly normal (ie not chaps nor a race suit)
I have steal toe boots would these work or should i get motorcycle boots?
Please if you have any advice or suggestion let me know (i can have things shipped to the states so that is not an issue)

This gear includes at minimum a D.O.T Approved Helmet, foot wear (that covers the ankle), Protective Jacket and Gloves.
