Default motorbike fashion do's and dont's

taken from fast bikes magazine june 07-

do not stick stickers all over your bike,

do not wear a sweater or hoodie over your leathers,

do not use a tyre pen on the walls of your tyres,

do not wear a stick on mohicon on your crash helmet,

do not wear your back protector over your leathers,

always fit old sliders to new leathers,

iridium visors were cool in the 90's wear black or silver if you insist,

do not tuck your jeans into your bike boots,

if you've got a yellow bike (hovis) dont wear yellow leathers,

smoke or black screens are ok colours are not,

colour'd engine bolts are a no no, fit stainless or titanium instead,

let a mate scuff your sliders, this is the one bit of bull**** allowed,

dont go out in all brand new kit you'll look a flash tw#t with new sliders,

dont wear sunglasses under a clear visor,

dont fit grips with your bikes name on,

dont fit colour'd tyres to your bike,

race rep helmets are cool but the whole race rep kit isnt.
