I'm not a fan of icon stuff at all. I have a pair of thier gloves and boots and both feel apart in less then one season of riding. My Joe Rocket gear has been much better.

A lot of people find the Icon boots hard to move under the shifter. The other gear sounds OK to me.

I like my icon gear i got. my jacket is a little tight but i knda like it tight at the bottom that way it doesn't blow up my back.

it sounds like good gear to me.

i have every piece you mentioned on your list and havent had one problem, i prefer the super duty pants because of the cargo pockets but other then me getting fat and my gear being a little tight this month, no probs, no issues, nothing falling apart.

o wait, icon sucks

You will always get mixed opinions.
For ex: I like my goat skin gloves and helmet from AGV, Leathers from Z leathers and still undecided about my new SIDI boots. Personnal preference it seems.

I've been riding around with my super duty pants, and they rock. Giant pockets, just like the Army! I have the hooligan pants and they are amazingly comfortable, but I don't know how well they'd hold in a crash.
