I've heard many people say that there is nothing significant in QLD other than the gold coast.... is that not true?


If you're a tourist then by all means... but I live 45 minutes away and I have been there maybe once in the last 2 years. If you're a motorcyclist or prefer to get away from the crowds then there's heaps more :)

Unfortunately I did not have a good experience with Brownbear. I do not know about vendor verdict rules on this forum so if it breaches any just mod my post.

I purchased a 2pc suit from Brownbear. It arrived on time and in perfect condition however was made smaller than the measurements provided. An inch - inch and a half on the most important areas ie waist, hips and chest.

I contacted him a few times and he was chasing it up with the manufacturer, however I no longer receive responses to my emails. I am left with a suit that is too small and I will have to try and sell it on Ebay to try and get my money back.

Very disappointed in Brownbear leather and will not buy from them again.

Strange, I had something similar happen and they were very helpfull... They organised a new jacket... It had to be sent from overseas again so I had to wait a bit, but it wasnt a problem...

Since posting this in here, and on any other bike related forum I could find reference to Brownbear on, I have found another person who has bought Brownbear gear only to have it too small and him not return emails or contacts.
