Ride Tested | Mosko Moto Riding Apparel (buyer's guide) 

we like these too

CE rating. . . "sigh". . . Why? . . . It's a U.S.A. company with garments ethically manufactured in Bangladesh. To subject them to E.U. CE certification would only drive their costs even higher. It's excellent gear meant for people who understand and accept the inherent risks of Motorsports.

They are working on an integrated armor versions of the basilisk, with ce rating. Seems like they cannot ce rate the clothes without protections. That’s what they told me, should come out on mid 2024

Correct. CE rating requires both abrasion and impact. The MM gear has no integrated armor so it won't pass the impact bar.@@jrams.g

@@jrams.gyou can absolutely get a b rating without padding. Revit even has a jersey that’s CE rated B.

The prices are total madness at this point. The basilisk used to cost 700CAD$, which already was too expensive to begin with. Now they sell them for 990CAD$ which is absolutely ridiculous even considering how well made their apparel is. That said, do keep an eye out for the Dirty Bird sales. I scored a pair of Basilisk pants for under 400CAD$. Basically brand new.

They are sponsoring him and give him free equipment so he can advertise their overpriced shit to gullable people. To be honest he mentioned it many times.

Thanks for sharing!

I'll check it out!

10 points for “thoroughly thought through”

@@elliottmoos don’t be fooled, I used google to double check

I just commented on the same exact issue.

Great setup

second this.

Thanks for sharing!

Noted!

If they give it to him for free as mosco moto does with their overpriced garbage.

He wouldn't neither if it was not given for free to him.

Will do!

Revit Proteus

I looked it up. Is that your body armour you use Ian? Like it ?? @@BigRockMoto

I'm not sold on the idea of giving up on abrasion resistance in the outer shell unless you're off-road only. Even then a decent fall on a stony trail or into the bushes will tear through any light fabric and start taking off skin from arms, hips and butt. On-road, worse again, and I don't trust body armor to hold together in a slide. The straps on MX-style armor and the mesh in compression shirts will last about a tenth of a second if unprotected in a slide, there goes your armor, and the sequel to that doesn't bear thinking about.

Armor has CE ratings not garments

@@detro3runnot true. Abrasion resistance is a measurement of the material and garment, it CAN include the armor but is not required.

"Armor", CE or not is virtually worthless in the real world.. Being a Traffic Homicide Investigator for 12 years in Central Florida specializing in motorcycle crashes.. yes crashes not "accidents"... Armor does little to protect the rider in the event of a crash.. why?.. because once impact occurs the rider will usually be ejected resulting in tumbling not "sliding" negating the myth of abrasion resistance.. As for the "armor", unless it's constructed similar to what football players wear....that's also a myth, those thing little flexible panels in your elbows, shoulder area, center back and where ever else the manufacturers place them giving the purchaser the deadly illusion you'll be safe in a crash are also worthless at speeds greater then you typical walking speed .. the vast majority of motorcycle fatalities the primary COD ( cause of death) listed in the autopsy report is "Blunt Force Trauma".... As for helmets, they determine if the funeral will be open casket or closed gasket... And don't buy into anything "inflatable" for rider safety... It's a dangerous marketing ploy from the manufacturers... and a running joke to those of us who actually work these crashes..

@@CoolioDaMan ok?…

They can't do CE in Bangladesh where their product is made. They can still charge huge prices if they manage to persuade customers with help of you tube channels they give products for free.

Honestly they look a lot better in person. Lol I love the different colors.

I like the colors. The universe is back in balance.

I’m interested in the reviews and trust your judgement. Keep up the good work and thanks.

I also fully disagree with this poster’s comment. I find your reviews valuable, unbiased and transparent. Please continue your great work.

They aren't sponsors, I don't get money except for affiliate sales which I can get from any company equally. I'm doing the gear videos now while people are getting ready for the riding season. I'm sorry if it seems too much, after this week there may not be more gear videos for 6-12 months. It's raining so I do these now.

I love the gear reviews. Riding gear is as important to me as the motorcycles themselves. I like high-end gear and want all the facts before pulling the trigger on a purchase. Keep up the great work. Disregard the haters. Cheers !

Totally disagree. TBH I'm really loving these gear reviews, specially since I'm in the market for some high-end stuff. These reviews are really helpful and I appreciate them.
