Hey all, hope evryone is ok and had a good xmas n new year. I went away on a trip to holland after the gm last year and ended up cooking in my leathers, been looking about for the kevlar jeans or combats with the pads fitted, been around my local supplyers and they did not have much, can anyone help me out recommending anywhere ??? also looking for cams for the bike??

thanks manuell

dont wear cammo on the bike. think about it, they are designed so a quick glance and you blend in. would just be giving cage drivers another excuse of sorry m8 i never saw you.

draggin jeans or richa are good (the later have been tested by me) ebay sell them as do some main dealers (i got mine at honda on sale)

I went for Hood Jeans. British hand made ones, lots of protective lining all over the legs, much more than the draggins and other jeans I've compared them too, and you can have knee and hip armour too. About £100 all in, but worth it IMO.

Bright pink cammo? Is that for when you need to hide in the Barbie aisle of Toys'R'Us?
