Default Been Spending again, Arlen Ness Goodies!!!

Well i went in Hein Gericke wanting some new boots, i saw the new Arlen Ness Boots and loved the style so tried them on and they felt like slippers. Its like they've already been worn in. So i thought bugger it i'll have a look at some gloves too and tried on the Arlen Ness G-7205 and they are the most comfy gloves i've ever tried on, they're made of kangaroo leather and it's just so much softer and flexible than cow hide. So i had them aswell.

But i wasn't happy at that, so i tried on the Arlen Ness LS2-5912 two piece suit and it felt much better than my extremely well worn in RST leathers plus they look sexy too. So i took advantage of the 0% deal and at ?60 a month for 10months i thought i'd have them too.

So a good day for Hein Gericke Taunton and a good day for me too. Plus the sun came out for me so i could try them out. One thing i did notice from the off was the @rse has no grip in corners, it makes you hang off the bike ready for knee down action it gave me more confidence from the off.

Would recommed these to anyone, it's almost like riding the bike naked compared to my old kit .



Apologies for the state of the model



Most comfy gloves ever!!



Sexy boots were just the start!!



You wondered where the sun went to ..
