Right person, wrong clothing.
I had Frank Thomas textiles on.
The jacket has a couple of holes in the arms, a bit of piping has come unstitched and a shoulder flap has come unstitched.
Don't tell anybody but I had jeans and long johns on as I was only going local. My long johns have a hole in the knee but the jeans don't.......work that one out.

- Has anyone owned either of these or any Teknic leathers in general???
- Are there any weak points to them???
- If there is nothing wrong with these, should i fork out the extra £50 for violators???
- If these are rubbish what alternatives do i have???

Thanks in advance for anyone that offers suggestions and/or advice
i just got this suit (chicane i think) £199 from DH autos in newcastle stoke.

Hmm once when YC was on his 125, he came off only wearing jeans, had a mark on his leg where he'd scraped it on the tarmac but his jeans looked like new! Very odd. But then a good pair of jeans is better than nothing

When I came off my bike I had a scar on my left kne from the accident and no mark on the jeans, but a small mark on the other knee. My bike jacket was trashed me jeans I still wear !

Moral - when you come off at 40pmh wear ya jeans LOL
