Assuming you have leathers of course.
As people are consistantly slagging off the bigger more expensive leather companies what do you have??
Just for the record I have an Alpinestars 2 piece. Cost me £550 new two years ago. ____________________ My Flickr |

Nice, I trust the scuffed sliders are from knee down on the monkey bike?
I should have put an other option in. Arse. ____________________ My Flickr |

I've got Hein Gericke Pro Sport ones, and some Crowtree made to measures.
The Crowtrees are a little tight these days, but they still just about fit. They unfortunately limit my KD potential though!
But, despite the fit not being quite what it used to be, they are the very best in the business. I'd rather crash in those than the HG's.
Saying that the HG's are perfectly good for half the price of the Crowtrees, just that the legs are a little too long for 'lil ole me.
If I could have the loseness of the HG's with the length and quality of the Crowtrees, I'd have my ideal set of leathers. ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F
Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another. |

I'm currently wear an Arlen Ness two-piece and have an old HG two-piece lying around somewhere.
I really rate my Arlen Ness and will seriously consider them again when I come to replace my current gear... ____________________ My Bikes: Piaggio NRG| Aprilia RS 125| Suzuki GSX-R 600|Yamaha Fazer Ducati 848

A Teknic one piece I got at a bike show for £50 reduced from £200 for a minor stitching fault around the crotch. Fitted perfectly. ____________________ Bandit 600 |

Frank Thomas 2 piece. Not overly impressed tbh, stitching in some places is a bit iffy. Think my next set will be Arlen Ness or Alpinestars. ____________________ K1 GSX-R 600 - blue n white of course....

I have Dainese trousers and a Frank Thomas Jacket.
The trousers are awesome, can wear them all day, have sat in cinema with them on, no problems, awesome
Jacket I can't say, as it's a summer one covered in air holes, and I bought it at the NEC, so havn't had good enough weather! ____________________ Currently Riding - 2002 Aprilia RSV1000 Mille |

I've got some Ashman two piece leathers that I bought off ebay for £14 I got them slightly oversize so that I can wear clothes underneath. I have had them a year now and they're still fine. I've also got a Dainese two piece set which I'm going to get repaired (busted zip) and altered so they fit me better 'cos its what I want to be wearing when I'm riding a bit quicker in the summer ____________________ NSR 125F > BROS 400 > NC30 > BROS 400 > Trumpet S4 > '97 VFR 750 |
