I just picked up a 2000 cbr f4 w/the black/yellow scheme, and want a jacket and helmet that match the paint scheme. I can only seem to find much brighter yellows. Anyone have any ideas?

 

you wont find that exact color yellow on any gear, I tried lol, I have the same paint scheme. I got a yellow and black JR leather jacket and my helmets have been a gold KBC, a matte black w/ yellow accented graphix AFX, and now a black and gold exo-1000. the rest of my gear is all black except with a few silver accent on the glove and Sidi'd red parts on the boots. Everything goes well with my bike tho.

 

Found a helmet that's a pretty close match:



I think I'll just get a black jacket to go with it.

 

+1 for the Scorpion helmet... They are comfortable and don't fog up at all

 

They save your head too. Tested!

 

only parts match but it was helmet of the year, hands down best venting and only $150 absolutely cant beat it

+1 to playfulgod lulz. I went with matte black all the way around. Got a Shift Diablo jacket which I ***LOVE***, and a Scorpion exo-1000 helmet that hasn't been the same since I took it apart, but it's comforaable as hell.

Try posting in the gear section for a better response.

 

Try riding it in cold weather. Mine fogs up like INSTANTLY at a light, even WITH Rain-X Anti-Fog in it and the vents open.

 

Never had that problem w/ mine. Rode in the 20's w/ it.

 

Personally, I like that new hjc carbon fiber helmet, it's on my wishlist I will have it here shortly. I also don't like leather jackets the are heavy and hot (my opinion) I like my speed and strength textile jacket, nice and light and lots of protection.
