    Race Leather repairs?

    Hi, a few months ago in I think it was in Kiwi Rider magazine there was an article about a company who did really impressive race leather repairs, from memory they may be located in the Hastings area perhaps?. The article showed before and after repairs and seemed very much improved, even the expandable sections which had been stretched and torn out flat were returned to the original expandable style, just what I need. If someone out there has any information regarding the company I`d be real happy to hear from you.
    Cheers

    Jet Leathers are in Hastings. They make very nice kit. Could be them?
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    I`ve had a look in the Yellow Pages with no success do you know if perhaps they trade under a different name?

    MSW - Motorcycle Safety Wear. In St Kevin's Arcade, K' Rd here in Auckland. Kerry has done all sorts of work on my leathers - new legs from the knee down, sliders, armour, repairs, expansion (ahem!). Prompt and very reasonable.

    Leda Leathers is still going strong here in Wgtn, if you need details let me know. Dusty does a great job.

    Being frustrated is disagreeable.

    But the real disasters in life begin when you get what you want.
