leathers

[Burky]

I bought 2pc leathers on my trip to Germany cause they were cheap (AUD$900), they are great just need breaking in. Apart from that i couldn't afford new Alpine stars $1800 so i looked at getting used leathers. Not damaged but older style, give them a good clean-up and airing and away you go. The best part is that they are already broken in so there is no real uncomfortable period. In 12mths new leathers are 2nd hand looking anyway.

i dont think i have any great need for the sliders as of yet but would rather have them in the case of an accident

umm sliders are good for sliding...but not so good for crashing...

as they are hard, they HURT if u land on em...mind u most leathers have padded knees (great for crashing in or slutty women)...

get the sliders anyway ...for when u get ya knee down...ohhh what a feeling...

Mate, we're getting in m2r leathers in, rrp is about 700-800 bucks.

They're a nice cut, and quality is good (i bought one of their ladies jackets)

Hows your bike? Did you get the dash sorted?

You work at Pro Kawasaki on the South side of Brisvegas don't you? Was down your way the other day looking for jackets. Tried on a couple of m2r jackets and they fitted good. The bloke who helped me seemed very eager to assist and wasn't too pushy. Almost feel guilty for not buying a jacket off him. Went elsewhere and bought a Collins jacket (funnily enough at Pro Kawasaki in Ipswich (another tentacle in the growing Pro empire)) instead because it fitted better.

i have a "bikers club" suit which ive had for abt 8 yrs now.... back then i paid abt $800 but now u can pick up a 2 piece a bit cheaper than that....

ive been down 4 times on the road..3 times in the pants, twice in each jacket (i bought 2 cos i wanted 2 diff colours..lol)

they held up SUPER well.... admittedly the 3rd crash did a fair bit of damage to the jacket, destroyed an arm, but i had only a scratch on my elbow....

u can get bikers club from most dealers- its cheaper but seems ok..

I bought my Bikers Club two piece suit from Actions in Parramatta. They had a sale and I picked up the suit for $250. I did not need another suit but for that money I could not say no. It is lighter than my old suit also a bikers club and has all of the flexible material where it is needed. I think for the money it is a great buy.
