You won't look like a plonker at all, honestly and sincerely.

Cheers for that guys it's settled then.
I was a bit worried about my boots too, but who cares what anyone else thinks=;

Honestly, the leathers are fine, but I hate to say the boots do clash a bit with the yellow. Sorry....

A couple of weeks back I took apart my neighbours old honda cub cleaned it up and got it running after being stood for 5 years. I sold it on ebay for £700 (!) to a couple who drove an 18hour round trip to collect it (!!) absolute madness but anyway said neighbour gave me £400 for my troubles (I'd actually offered to do it for free). Well anyway with 400 english (and some scottish) pounds burning a hole in my pocket I walked into HG and before I new it I'd bought some alpine stars leathers reduced from £550 to £400 :rolleyes::oops:
Now my question is (and I suspect the answer) would I look a complete tool in these on a little curvy naked sv650?

....

Nope. I think they look cool. I'd love some but I'm 6'5" and only weigh 13 stone.
On a seperate note. Does anybody know were long thin people can get decent leathers?

they look slick matey, I wear the hein gerick psx 2 piece suit & love em :)

alpine star's some of the best kit you can get as far as I see it? As long s you're protected, warm & dry, the rest of sheffield can laugh at you while they queue in traffic or at the bus stop :)
