Crotch too long

[swtfa]

I have some leather pants but the crotch is too long so it is difficult to straddle the bike.

Can the pants/crotch be altered?

I don't want them pulled up from the waist because then the leg length will be soooo wrong. Perfect fit everywhere else, I just have a short waist lol.

I guess I have left myself open for some smart comments... if you know what I mean:msn-wink: but I'm a big girl so bring it on

You can lay your bike down, slide on, then eject both you and said bike to an upright postion in one movement....:niceone:

That will learn you for buying Homie Boonga pants.

There must be a Tailor or seamstress in Napier .... not a major job. There is one or two on KB that do those alterations ....

Leaving herself open can be fixed by doing up the zip though ... :killingme

One of the girls in the Wellington area does alterations ... just cant remember which one.

[sinfull]

Ratti does them FJ !

Yeah take ya crotch in works, but you (the machinist) will have to start around the knee or just above and slowly take a larger seam up to the crotch center then slowly out again to the knee

Question there is, how much do ya need taken in ? It will be taking as much both sides of the seam IE front and backside, will the thigh still fit ?

Who ever does it will need a heavy duty walking foot machine, not just ya commercial singer sewer ! There will be an upholsterer up your way somewhere that will have a machine that'll handle it i'm sure
