Default Re: Buying Leathers.

I find frank thomas trousers fit well and I also, unfortunately, found out they keep enough distance between skin and tarmac. (without armour, only a little soft padding)

If you don't desperately need any ie if you already some gear, wait until november and go to the show at the NEC. I got a 'smoke damaged' Akito textile jacket for £40 last year! This also crashed well and doesn't really have a mark on it, though it wasn't dragged along under the bike.

Hmm, well i suppose i could wait until winter, would be easier then financially, and presumably stuff will be cheaper then anyway, out of season sales, just hope i don't slide before then, or at all for that matter! lol

I can't decide what to do now, lol, ermmm, might just cool the looking then see if anything good crops up.
