Hi all just thought I would say hello to you all hoping to pick up my SV650s before the weekend but wanted some advice please.

I have to re kit myself out totally from head to toe and was after advice about leather over textile clothing will be using the bike to and from work and ride outs so will be riding in all weathers so which would be the better buy?

Thanks

Just found a thread about leathers and texitle should have looked first must be tried lol

all year riding then probably textile, fairweather riding and considering track days? then leathers, that zip together all the way around the waist, with some thin waterproofs just in case. I do all the above and have heavy textile stuff for my winter commute and some leathers for this time of year. Not cheap but over time you tend to build up a collection. Welcome to the club!

Well got my bike only a couple of short rides to and from work so far but love it taking easy while I build up my confidence again after been for two wheels for a couple of years. Hoping to get out next week on my day off if weather holds out to get more used to riding again
