Custom made leathers
Quick question, when measuring yourself for a new set, do you wear the items you would normally wear when riding such as the back protector?
Getting me a swanky new suit to.. well.. suit the new bike

Re: Custom made leathers
I would have thought so.
If you don't mind me asking, where are you getting them from? I need to get me a set. I want to do some track days this year and I've only got textiles. 6'5" and only 13 stone, I don't stand a chance of getting off the peg leathers

Re: Custom made leathers
When I had leathers custom made to fit my gangly frame, the nice people at the company measured me. I would have a strong preference for being measured by them so there are no disagreements if things do no fit perfectly later on.
