Gear Arrived!

Actually get to start riding tomorrow. I feel like a kid on Christmas. My wife was very supportive; actually, she booked a trip to Disneyland and the ocean at the end of the month because she was so excited...(That was my bribe for the new bike and gear).

Ask me questions about anything! Did a lot of research to arrive at the items I chose :)

Arai XD-5/Regent

First time rider and will be focusing on streets for the foreseeable future, but will venture into off-road. Looking at the Arai Regent, but should I just pull the trigger and get the XD-5? Any issues on HWY use (buffeting, etc.)? I am also a glasses wearer and contacts are not an option. Would appreciate the feedback

Helmet Dilemma

Leatt ADV 8.5 V25 Helmet or Shoei Hornet X2. I tried both on, but the Shoei did feel tight on the cheeks. First time rider here and have a 2026DR650. Just looking for advice and experience. Thanks!

400 or a 650

Getting into riding, haven't rode since highschool - but looking for something to mess around with as I live in one of the best areas for it in my state. As a first time rider, a lot of people I've talked to seem to think the 400 is the play, but I keep looking at the 650 for that little bit of juice. I weigh 235 and am 5'10". Appreciate any feedback!
