Im talking about motorcycle aparel (Glove, jacket and such like)
What have you wanted and was in your means, but for some reason you have either changed your mind, or just havent got round to it? I have always wanted a matching Textile jacket and Trousers for winter. Reason why it hasnt happened. I always buy bike stuff in the sale, or at shows and they have never had my sizes in either the jacket or trousers. Also, i want a HID kit for the SV, but money stops me. |

Sidi Vertigo Corsa waterproof boots. Never had anything worth more that about £50. Would love to own a really good pair!

I nearly always wear textiles for riding now,because leathers are too hot in summer and too cold/not waterproof in winter.Id like a set of fully ventilated/perforated leathers for summer,but never got round to buying them.

Heated gloves. I suffer every morning and swear blind that I will buy a pair, but just never get round to actually doing it.

I have been like this for years. Could never justify the expense even though each winter I suffer more than the previous year. This year I couldn't bear it any more. Bought a pair. I know realise that I could not afford NOT to buy them. They are fantastic. Rode to work in what must easily have been -5 without taking into consideration the wind chill. My hands stayed warm throughout the entire journey. Buy them. Now.
