Default grey SV and white leathers

after some leathers and quite like the idea of white ones, something like the alpinestars octane white if i can find some cheap /2nd hand that is

now not sure if they will look right with a grey bike (will be worn with black boots, gloves, helmet)

any chance anyone has some pics of any grey bike with a white leathered rider

The octanes are very nice by the way bud.
I got a black set at the weekend, and they just fit so well and feel brilliant.

I've never personally understood white leathers. I'd just have to stand next to 'em and they'd have oil on them.

Not sure if white would go with what you've got either. But it is up to you at the end of the day.

I think you'll look like an ar$$e, and white leather is a bugger to keep clean, the muck gets in the grain and you can't get it out. You'll end up looking a scruffy bugger

yeah i kinda agree with the white, decided on a rc1 jacket in blue - well its blue/black/white, think it should look good on the bike - with some matching pants
