Lisalla Montenegro Wears the Vika
Apparently Brazilian model Lisalla Montenegro can ride a motorcycle. She tried out the [somewhat controversial] women’s Vika two piece suit by Alpinestars. I will say, it looks nice… on a models body.
Someone with a more normal shape… try this gear and let me know what you think!

I actually own the Vika jacket and pants. I am regular girl (size 10) with an ample booty. I absolutely love the Vika set. I have the armour I want, shoulders, elbows, knees and I added the back protection. These are the most comfortable set of leather jacket and pants. I just rode over 600 miles in two days and my Vika set kept me safe and comfortable the whole time. On top of the I felt like I looked amazing, which only helped my confidence even more. I personally am very happy to see gear that still allows me to feel feminine even when participating in a very masculine sport and wrapped from head to toe in protective gear. It is easy to feel lost and buried under helmet, jacket, pants and boots, but the Vika set lets me feel like “I” am still there. Hope this helps. Roxanne
Roxtar, I know it’s been a while, but if you see this, please email me pics of you rocking the VIka. [email protected] thanks!
I am trying to pick pants for myself.. Vika looks great, but is it enough protection or more like urban motorcycle jeans? Also, It looks like pants are a bit too short.
IF the pants were too short on her I’d wager it’s because she has gazelle model legs. That being said, the leather and protective qualities of the Vika pants are great. Much much better than jeans, and they have armor.
Got to say my girl Lucy loves her Vika gear to bits, on and off the bike, and would recommend it for fit and quality to anyone. Just did over 600 miles as my pillion over the weekend and she felt warm, comfortable, protected and sexy. Even a Dalek eyed her up….. 🙂
I fell in love with the whole set and found the jacket in my size today and it feels amazing! Still attempting to find the pants in my size but I do wish, especially for the price that there was back and hip protection.
