Hello Brett. I, a Japanese, will answer. Unlike English, Japanese is basically pronounced one by one without linking. It's not like komainee or komain. So your pronunciation at 4:51 is not too bad. I feel like if you read "Ko-mi-nei" or "Ko-me-nei", it sounds natural to me. 😀 Since it is a foreign word, I don't think there is a big problem with reading it with a pronunciation that is easy for native English speakers to read.
Thanks Legend. Really glad you're enjoying the gear and thanks for giving it a go originally and taking the leap. Appreciate the review and taking the time out to put this together. Keep up the great vids!
@@ADVBrett It is pronounced a bit differently. I think Nerb started pronouncing it a certain way and it got a bit of legs. It's more like ko-meanie or ko-mini. My video on the rama might be the best place to hear it. Thanks again legend.
I like Komie gear. I would prefer to buy it over other brands. But they don’t make men’s sizes …. I wanted to buy their gear over other brands because they are made in Japan, the gear looks well made and the price is ok. Still a bit pricey. But thankfully not to overpriced. I do have a very different opinion about what things are worth than everyone else….
Hello Brett. Thank you for your review. The Rama II sounds amazing, just what I was hoping for. And Japanese quality - say no more. I have a question though. Could I wear this jacket just road riding (commuting and leisure)? I have a naked sports type bike.
Gday John, I believe you can, I use this for street riding on the Africa twin all the time as it's very comfortable and very well vented and on those coal warnings. You can stay very warm so I would certainly recommend it. That being said, they do some very good street riding jackets as well so have a good look at the street bikes gear on the Zarkie website
