Default Bike clothes for the larger boned bikers ;)

Hope right section mods

I've got a buddy who is finding it difficult sourcing some textile clothing. Hoping someone could provide some information on shops/websites.

Looking for places that do from a size 54 up if memory serves me right... Quite a big lad like anyways.

Thanks in advance

Cheers
Ben

Triumph caters for the bigger biker too.

I've heard that BMW clothing go up to large sizes.

There is always Harley Davidson clothing (H-D riders tend to be 'large'!), which go up to large sizes but it is ferociously expensive

Have a look at Joe Rocket stuff. Its an american brand I believe and very popular over there, it caters for the bigger build.
