what to wear on a bandit?

ok it's a stupid question I know but what would you wear on a 600 bandit as it's not a sports bike and I dont think one piece leathers would look right. I'm bloody confused on what to wear as I want to stay safe and not look like a twonk! Rolling Eyes

so someone help me out I never realy thought about it till my mate reminded me I'm doing my test on friday and I've got a bandit and what the f**k am I going to wear I've got a textile jacket and trousers

Two-piece black leathers would be good, wouldn't they? More "old skool" bikers look...

Quality gear and not too bad on the wallet.

jeans offer zero protection from impact, next to zero from abrasion, and i tore a ligament crashing in full armoured leather trousers

your choice.

Speaking as a fellow Bandit rider, Leather jeans and a plainish textile jacket, decent boots. nods a plenty Cool

. I agree you might look a bit of a tool in full race leathers and you'll look like a courier in all black leather.

I wear full leathers on my SV - can't see what the problem is really, I wear them on the TZR250 too.
Better to put up with the odd comment than to put up with gravel rash IMO

I wear Hein Gericke Pro-Sports black\white\red 2-piece leathers on my ER-5..........but the bike's silver so anything goes with it really.
