Enoch bilhin mo kung anu bagay sayo kabayan.. lahat naman yan matitibay eh pati nga scoyco, matibay din... :D Mabin28 January 15th, 2007, 10:31 PM ano po pinakamura? enoch January 16th, 2007, 04:39 PM Komine SK-608 Triple Knee Protector is priced at P 1,400.00 Pole Position Knee and Shin Protectors at P1,000.00 enoch January 16th, 2007, 04:43 PM bilhin mo kung anu bagay sayo kabayan.. lahat naman yan matitibay eh pati nga scoyco, matibay din... :D upon inspection kasi nung both brands, mukhang maganda quality nung pads ng Komine kaysa sa Pole Position. Also, any inputs po kung suot nyo na? yung Komine nung-fit ko di umiikot sa shin yung pole kasi parang umiikot sya ng kontin. Baka pag-actual slide na di rin ganun ka-protected kasi umikot na yung protectors mo sa back ng lecgs mo. O baka sa akin lang to. :? yun nga lang medyo pricey ng konti yung komine. marcusfilter January 16th, 2007, 06:36 PM upon inspection kasi nung both brands, mukhang maganda quality nung pads ng Komine kaysa sa Pole Position.

My hesitation in actually buying one over the other is that I just want to get some feedbacks from actual users of both brands. Kasi po I fitted both brands and yung pole position may tendency na umikot sa shin ko while the komine ok yung fit- snug or comfortably tight sya. Right now I am 90% inclined in getting Komine. Although, am still waiting from a post that may change my mind aboput pole position. boylit January 17th, 2007, 10:01 AM the 661 is only 1,000 +... best of all, they end right where the boot tops out... so the fit is perfect for me... the komine and pole position ones have decent plastic cups (which spreads the impact force over it's area) but the padding (which will be the one absorbing the impact) is really really thin compared to the 661 dj's... worse, if you wear boots, they have to be inside the boot to be of any use... this can be uncomfortable... i know because i have the komine knee/shin protectors as well as the pole position knee/shin protectors... the pp one's i have is the one with the hinged knee... both of them tend to cramp up my lower leg when i wear them with my boots... if i wear them on top of the boot, i don't think they'll do their job very well... commander007ph January 17th, 2007, 10:06 AM wow.from where can we buy those 661?got to drool over sa boots,slurp! ghmitch January 17th, 2007, 10:18 AM sir boylit san po makakabili ng 661? boylit January 17th, 2007, 10:29 AM contact accs... ghmitch January 17th, 2007, 10:53 AM accs? san po ba banda un? TIA boylit January 17th, 2007, 11:26 AM accs is his nick in the forums... his shop is exceed motor sales in caloocan... ghmitch January 17th, 2007, 11:53 AM oh okay.. thank you sir! remo January 18th, 2007, 08:28 AM Komine. Try it both, visit Motoworld. john_el January 19th, 2007, 01:24 AM ive been using the pole position knee/shin guards (not advanced). they have a snug fit on my shins and doesnt rotate even if i move a lot. one comment is, it has 3 straps which i find the topmost strap annoying at the back of my leg when i fold my legs. it hurts! any tips? but nonetheless, though i have not crashed on them yet , i believe they can provide you enough protection. Daddy G January 19th, 2007, 09:42 AM i'm using the komine brand pero yung old model pero mas maganda yung old model ng pole position na knee/shin protector (hindi yung advance) kasi malaki yung pads nya kaya pati yung binti mo hanggang likod eh may protection. Shark_Rider16 January 19th, 2007, 02:33 PM sir boylit, how much po yung SIDI na boots? and san nakakabili? Tnx po. boylit January 19th, 2007, 02:41 PM sir boylit, how much po yung SIDI na boots? and san nakakabili?
