Default Camouflage jackets?

Been to the NEC today looking at kit for when i get a bike early next year. I'm more of a naked sv as oposed to the sports model and I really like the look of either the green or white camo jackets that are available.

My mates nearly ****ed themselves everytime i even looked at a jacket, and on return home th mrs agrees that they are rather uncool.

I'm happy to let the populaion decide. If this post is in the wrong place I appologies and could a mod move it to somewhere more suitable.

Cheers
Dave

You need a Simpson lid and a Street-fighter to go with those jackets

That's so insensitive philipMac, Grinch's facial contortions are the result of an agonising childhood illness! *

I agree, though, they're more streetfighter than cruiser IMO. I like the camo trousers/leather jacket combo. Camo jackets just look a bit silly, especially when you're sat on a brightly coloured motorbike "Can't see me!" I wonder where my "martian wasteland" orange and black combats are?
