There's a very good chance ya just need to bend forward a bit, bring your shoulders in and your tummy back.
Then voila! Your jacket zips up perfectly. Remember that proper fit is always in riding position; never standing up!
Shoei Hornet Dual Sport Helmet for Small Heads
If you have a small head, and I mean a *really*small head, now's the time to invest in one of the best dual sport helmets on the market.
For the low low price of $349.99, the Shoei Hornet DS helmet is on sale! Snell rated, Fiberglas shell, lightweight, Pinlock-able, well vented, removable liners and more.
If I needed a dual sport helmet, this would be at the top of my list. One because it weighs practically nothing (~3.5lbs) and also because Shoeis fit my head really well. I've never met a man that fit a XS let alone a XXS helmet. There are only a handful of people who need XXS helmets, and it's extremely difficult to find really good ones.
If you fit any Shoei, you should easily fit into this one. Similar to their intermediate oval headshape (so your head from front to back is a bit longer than ear to ear).
As of right now, Revzilla has XS and XXS (DOUBLE Xtra Small!) for the same price in solid colors.
Hurrrrryyyyyyy before they run out!
Motorcycle Jackets with a More Generous Bust on Pinterest
I've updated some of my Pinterest boards, and will be adding fit-specific boards such as:
- long and lean motorcycle jackets
- jackets with generous bust spaces
- pants that run long
- pants that run short
- and more to come!
You do not have to be a member to view my boards, so swing by and let me know if there's something you want to see. As always, you can find me as Gearchic on Pinterest.
Something else to keep in mind, especially for the first time gear shoppers is that even these jackets will be tight across the bust, no matter what. Nothing designed for riding is going to fit like your blouses so make sure that you bring your shoulders forward, bring the girls in, your torso back to get it to zip up. Then SIT ON THE MOTORCYCLE. This is SO important to make sure you're not in the wrong size.
Spidi Poison 2 Piece Suit
I wanted to share this fabulous pic of my friend India, sporting a brand new Spidi Poison 2 Piece Leather Suit. It's the perfect 2 piece suit for your next track day, or day ride along your favorite twisties. Everyone should have a 2 piece textile, and a 2 piece leather in their closet.
I would say that Spidi for the most part runs a little leaner, similar to Dainese in fit. I haven't tried this one on in person, but am very hopeful that we will have some Spidi gear in the near future as well.
She's sized in a Euro 46. If you're interested in this suit, send me an email through the contact link on the left and I'll help you get sized. :)
