    Um, yeah, you and I must be related, @Pedro1340. :p I rationalize my jacket and boot collection (and three bikes) by saying that at least I don't have planes or boats or collect expensive watches. :joy::joy::joy:

    @Sandi T What about Cars. Really as long as your clothing is good with protection and you feel comfortable in it. Then it's fit for purpose.

    Hmmm, yeah, cars. I forgot about those, Joe. ;):joy: Yep, you're right about clothing, though--protective and comfortable are definitely the two most important things. I have to admit that running a somewhat close third is how the clothes and gear look and how they match / fit with the style of the bike. ;):heart_eyes:

    Oh this is such a me post :)

    I have a leather for three seasons & a Revit mesh for the three days a year that warrant it

    my personal choice is a Richa Daytona (in brown of course) great for everything except hot sticky days

    The Revit is black & grey - pretty much all I can tell you about it except it was the only piece of clothing that survived the transition between SV650 & Bonneville, & only gets dragged out for the odd hot day treat trip to Morelli’s for an ice cream
