I’ve seen people who do it, have a black bike, plain black leathers and a black lid. Which I think looks great.
My problem is I’m looking at a yellow bike, will I look good if I have yellow trimmed leathers, boots, gloves and a yellow lid? Or will I just look like I’m trying way to hard?

Black is the safest way to go, what happens if in six months you decide you want a green zx6? How naff will that look with yellow leathers? Silver leathers are quite safe aswell, go with most colours.

Must admit tho, the yellow leathers with yellow hornet will look good, + you will be very visable to other road users.....

I got a black and silver bike, then bought black and silver leathers. Sorted Very Happy
Though Chez got red and silver then had to buy a new red/silver lid and some new Oaklies to match Very Happy

Black goes with everything Smile

I used to really like black and yellow as a combination, but have now turned my attentions to black and white Wink

Black leather's the way to go. Always nice and co-ordinated.

Co-ordination is okay as long as you don't take it too far. That's when you start looking like a pimp.

As for going all yellow, I personally wouldn't do it. It'll make you look like a huge bright canary. Then again I can't really say I like yellow that much.

I think it'd be best to go for colour safe leathers.

And yellow will get horribly dirty pretty quick. Especially if you ride through winter.

Go with black.

I have somehow managed to co-ordinate, I have had two previous bikes before I got one that matched my leathers Wink

I went out and got nice (but cheap) Blue silver and White RST leathers with RST gloves, Oxtar boots and a Red white and Blue helmet, so that i'd look okayish on the NSR. Now i'll probably end up riding around on an RS and looking daft, but that's the problem with going over your head Razz
