Gilles Crash Protectors – Yamaha YZF-R1 Review
The best reviews that we can read are those from actual customers. Whilst the expert or magazine reviews are great, they don’t tend to give you as much information as a whole load of customers that have tried and used the product for a much longer period and in different circumstances. For example if you were looking to buy a waterproof bike jacket, you want to read reviews from customers that have worn it for a year and can give you the honest opinion on how waterproof it is after a year. Likewise you want to know that products like Gilles Crash Protectors – Yamaha YZF-R1 live up to the manufacturer and shop descriptions. We scored Gilles Crash Protectors – Yamaha YZF-R1 9.8 out of 10, and customers at SportsBikeShop scored it out of 5, thanks to the not yet rated customer reviews.
There are of course many factors that can affect the review score of a product, which can vary from the perception of the brand or product right through to the actual usability, quality and price. One of our best pieces of advice when you’re shopping for products in the Gilles Crash Protectors category, or any Frame & Controls products for that matter, is to consider reading plenty of the detailed customer reviews before you buy. Often the review score can help you to make a quick judgement as to how good a product is, but to really get to know if it’s right for you, you need to read lots of the reviews to find out what users are saying about it, good and bad.

Price was the other factor that we mentioned, and that has become increasingly important when we are buying products online, regardless if its motorbike kit or a toothbrush, we want to get a good deal. So be sure to shop around but it’s important that you buy from a retailer that you can trust. As a guide you should expect to be paying roughly £181.00 for Gilles Crash Protectors – Yamaha YZF-R1 as that is the RRP price. SportsBikeShop sell it at £171.95 at the moment which is great. Anything massively under this should raise alarm bells, especially as SportsBikeShop offer a price match promise.

Use these criteria to help you filter out the products that won’t meet your needs. At that point you can start comparing based on price and reviews.
Another critical part of discovering a new product before you buy it is video.
