Mid life crisis....Motor bike, allotment or mistress?

I guess it depends on your budget but don't Belstaff do trousers to go with the jacket? I'm sure Screwball (googler extraordinaire) will find you something. :smile:

 

Belstaff for £300! That's a bargain mate. I've got a Belstaff trialmaster (wax), Davida leather jacket & helmet with aviator goggles, Sidi Canyon boots & a pair of Triumph Highway 2 boots. Various pairs of jeans, but the ones I use most are a pair of Triumph cordura trousers (can't remember the name) they look like a pair of black five pocket jeans but are water/windproof. I'm thinking about a pair of Triumph heritage jeans for the summer (if it ever happens!) I've got another 2 helmets I don't wear much, & about 5 pairs of gloves. Almost forgot I've got another brown leather jacket as well. Mid life crisis, tot that lot up!

A word of advice, try stuff on first if you're able, as IMO, bike gear can vary a lot sizewise

 

I,ve been told im on a mid life crisis with the triumph but how can that be when ive been riding since i was 13,as for clothing sad i know triumph leathers really good quality or i use Weise jacket and trousers good keeps you dry

 

Good deal on the Belstaff..
Dragging jeans are apparently the best...
Boot wise. TCX touring offer TCX Custom Gore-Tex Boots - FREE UK DELIVERY. If you a bit more protection than the Chelsea boots you like... But it's not my choice so buy what you want/ like....
Or if you want waterproof then anything Cordura will do you well.... My mate has draggin jeans & triumph trousers and rates them both.....
Good luck choosing....

 

Nike trainers, jeans & a hoody for normal riding conditions. T-shirt, shorts & flip-flops for the summer (when it gets here) :upyeah:

 

I normally wear my Richa lj with Draggin jeans and feel very comfortable. I think when I start my RoADAR course they might be frowned upon so I'll probably wear my Frank Thomas Raptor textiles for the course. I have to get a Hi-viz jacket ferchrissakes! :frown:

 

lj = leather jacket, NOT long johns, just clarifyin'...

 

You'll be wanting one of these then Bry. http://www.tinwolf.co.uk/images/skull & xbones back.JPG

Can you please get me one?

 

Shit, that was supposed to be a PM!!!!

 

Was thinking of the subtle hi-viz effect. What do you think?...

 

I'm not sure who that is I'm holding hands with facing away!

 

Im liking that Bry, very discreet

 

See what they've done - it's a hi-viz dry suit so they call it 'dry-viz'! Jeez those guys crack me up! Brilliant!

 

I think it might just be that JimDiesel bloke....
