hmm dont know, have u got a picture of it from behind lol!

I didnt go because of the thing about leathers also !!! If I had known it wouldnt have been a problem I would have been so there.

I spent saturday morning trying on leathers and cant find any to fit so am looking custom or at least altered.

grrrrr

yeah a mate got REJECTED because his leathers did not zip together, but he got reffered to someone at the track who loaned him a pair for the day, so that was awesome!!

What size are you?

**HenryDorsetCase** · 18th April 2005, 12:27

I am a size 50 (from the crotch up...) but have short legs so the knee armour doesnt sit right. I either need to buy a set and have them altered, or go custom made. Only one I have found so far to do custom is Leda out of Wellington.

A tad weird........ I kinda hated it in pics but found it grew on me and I thought yeah its ok.... but after seeing the thing for real, looks shit as... looks like its of a F650.
but the bike its self.... yeah, 1st time I can say that I have ever liked a Gixer intergrated indercators look sweet as, tail piece very nice.

The other 05 there was the LTD 750 gixer in the colours of the slab side of 85/86 very nice too.

Does Al Mitchell still do leathers? can't remember his address or phone number sorry, but made me a set a few years ago. Top quality, custom made, being a fat bastard nothing off the shelf fitted

. $900 + gst I think I paid? bargain, just dont expect them in a hurry....
