I'm looking for full motorcycle protection. I heed a helmet, jacket, gloves, trouser and boots.
Do you know of anyone selling this as an all in one package relatively cheaply or is it a case of buying individually?

ghostbikes have well priced stuff online. Be prepared to test for fit and return though as you would with any other online gear. Usually some reasonable stuff in their running sales (bit like CRC)

Their "kit" bundles are only trousers and jackets though.

[url= http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/#/550,0,0 ][b]SportsBikeShop[/b][/url] are about the best online for range and prices - haven bought loads from them and never had an issue.

Also - I'd never advise buying a motorbike helmet without trying it on properly first. Seriously, it's just not worth it. Get yourself down to a couple of decent shops or dealers and get one fitted properly - it may very well save your life one day.

Not sure where you are but Get Geared are good on range and price. Ideally you could do with trying them on as the fit between manufacturers varies so much that you'll end with a bit of a mismatch. Luckily most jacket and trousers now have universal zips.

Infinity have a clearance warehouse in Camberley that can have some bargains.

Edit: My sources tell me you are in North Wales so Camberley isn't much use.

Sportsbikeshop as mentioned above are good as they do price matching and free returns if you spend over £25.

Some Aldis still have the boots/jacket and trousers in stock.
We're waiting for them to reduce the trousers more - currently at £50, down from £60.
The whole lot was reasonable, certainly worth the asking price.
Lidl have helmets in occasionally, last time was a couple fo months ago, a decent lid at £40.
