I'm picking up a DR350 soon.. I've got a lid and goggles, and some upper-bodyarmour (vest style) to wear under a jacket.

I'm looking for enduro stuff, that's reasonably weather resistance, as I'm hoping to do the Hafren later this year.

Anyone got any recommendations for kit and where to get it from?

Don't know if there's anything on soon, but last year I went to a Trials and MX show. Spent pretty much the whole day walking around trying different things on and haggling ('well that place over there did the same sort of thing for £5 less, but yours fits better!'). Ended up spending about £300 for a full set of decent kit from boots to helmet.

Otherwise, it's just going to be a case of going to local shops. J & S usually keep off roady stuff in, but not a massive range.

Don't forget a good solid set of knee guards, as most Enduro clothing is designed to be worn over "proper" armour which you strap on underneath. I would recommend one of the designs which includes a hinge at the knee joint, you can find loads of them relatively cheap on eBay... Thumbs Up
