Local dealer had those items in stock.  Although they look nice, they are very pricey.  $110 for a hooded sweater and $45 for a t-shirt is way too overpriced.  I saw the helmet too and tried them on, needless to say, they are useless and overpriced.

have you ever seen the face of someone who wore a 3/4 helmet after an accident?! if you have a strong stomach you can find pics online but i do not understand why anyone would wear one! wear glasses? buy a flip-up.

i do not care what the monster apparel looks like (i personally think the leather jackets look pretty nice) but it does not look like it comes with armor. am i right? pockets for armor? i certainly would not spend that sort of money for something without armor.

I am considering buying a 3/4 for those 100 degree 100% humidity days... either that or I won' ride.. it is that bad with a full face ... lik having a HEAD SAUNA!!  [bang]

I'm not 100% positive but I think the leather jacket has some armor in it.  I was fiddling with a jacket at my local dealer two weeks ago and I'm pretty sure it was the Monster one.

I have to join the too ugly to expensive club with respect to this line of clothing.

But, for me that is nothing new.  I have been completely put off by the whole Ducati logo marketing thing.  It's all ugly and expensive.

i bought the white monster leather jacket size 46 for her
a couple weeks ago from my local dealer,
i can tell you it has ZERO armor in it...
buttery soft leather though, and plenty thick....
fine for mellow around-town riding....
and MAN is it sharp looking....!!!!
