You got the silver coated visor with the helm right? I got that and its visibility in the night is good.

Its okay as long as the roads are well lit. I almost banged into a black-clad cyclist on a poorly lit road.

:(

Are there other visors available?

Its not meant for that. Its so that the coolant doesn't freeze in cold weather

The gloves cost me 900/- bucks.

Picked up a Cramster Raptor Jacket last week. Cost me 5.2k.

Cramster Riding Gear - K2K Classic Touring Armoured Jacket (Website - Cramster® - India's Favourite Riding Gear and Motorcycle Luggage: Saddlebags Tankbags Jackets Gloves for Touring Racing Motocross on Royal Enfield Pulsar Bajaj Karizma)

Fits well and has CEE approved armor for the elbows, shoulder and back.

Just ordered the DSG Revive Gloves and i should receive them tomorrow. Cost - Rs. 1990/-

DSG Revive Gloves - Rs1,990.00

That should be enough for now apart from my helmet. Will pick up knee guards once I complete the engine break in period on the ninja.

Guys does it look any good to you:

Joe Rocket Atomic 3.0 Textile Motorcycle Jacket :: New Enough

or shall I go for DSG NERO or DSG Mesh(will Nero without liner be bearable these days)

Budget is around 6k.

Looking for your recommendations.

$70 for the Joe Rocket is a steal.

Just pick it up soon. Its a pretty well known brand. DSG is pretty good too but IMHO comparing the two, Joe Rocket would be better in terms of quality and protection. Just ensure you get the sizing right. Every brand has its own sizing chart so use that before you buy. It is very important to have your riding gear in the correct size.

I have a cramster Raptor and have removed the inner thermal lining and use it even now when its hot in the day. I dont get cooked unless i stop at a traffic light. When on the move the air vents do their job well so you dont feel any discomfort.
