    Leathers! About time

    ...I bought some! Purchased a one-piece KBC suit off a fellow KB'r tonight - thanks mattt!

    These were brought to my attention thru TradeMe, so as with any item of clothing I buy over the internet I went around today and tried it on. I was hoping it would fit because the price was sooo right, and it did. Hardly used and never been binned in, this had my name on it from the first time I laid eyes on it!

    I've been considering a leather suit, one or two piece, for some *years* now (more so lately because of the increase in my riding on weekends and trackdays) so it was only a matter of time before I got 'suited up'!

    The martian looking creature in the attached pic is none other than myself posing on my lounge podium - don't laugh!

    Nice!!! Doesn't look like a one piece though. Looks more like the jacket zips to the pants. Or is that just a seam I'm seeing arounf the bottom of the jacket portion?

    Quite frankly I'm glad there's some bright colour in it, however if it was pink or some other feminine colour I'd probably dye it, or wouldn't have bought it to begin with!

    As I've said before, "there can be only one RiderInBlack!"

    You gotta know the history...RIB 'used' to ride a black VFR750! Not sure if he's still got it though?

    No offense to RIB but I feel kinda funny riding a black bike, dressed totally in black, and wearing a black lid! I was RIB2 there for a few weeks. :raghead:

    Nice outfit, Zed. Careful out in the rural areas - some farmer's likely to shoot ya and phone the National Enquirer - "Ah gut me wun o' them ayleeuns, he wuz'n mekkin' crop circles in ma feeyild wit sum kinda contraption that sounded like'n a plague of locusts so ah shot him wit ol' Betsy."

    Black and red go well together. Looks really excellent.

    Shiny, but nice. Well done Zed, and please dont christen them
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Not planning on it Sniper! Now that I am convinced that binning IS NOT inevitable I have a new mindset when riding!
