Nothing wrong with Pakistani leathers. Pretty sure my agvs were made there

Checked with the guys on a UK forum - 2 piece leathers are fine at every track there.

I think if the joining zips are both on leather (as opposed to a mesh lining or similar) then track days maybe are ok in a lot of tracks. Personally I would only advocate 1 piece though, safety first. If you cannot afford the hear you shouldn't be there. In most tracks you must also have back protector and those overseas riders getting track time on a rental must ride with a flouro vest plus be with an instructor. I remember back in the 70s my brother turning up at a track wanting a go on one of my Kawasakis. I leant him my leathers and went out for a few laps in Levi jeans and a cotton Kawasaki jacket. Fuck what an idiot, not sure how I survived these many years
I think it's some risk adverse director worried about being arse-licked in prison if someones two piece separates and shreds his back to the point of death....... in steps OSH, and the police ......
Nothing personal KK but shit I hate that phrase. It's the biggest lie ever spoken.
If it were not a lie we would never leave the womb. Safety is ALWAYS second. First we must live. Sometimes this involves some level of risk.
Eskimos would've died out long ago if they thought twice about attacking dinner many times their own size with only basic weapons (knife, spear etc.) from a kayak in heavy seas that are near freezing.

I'd suggest that you're talking about taking responsibility for yourself...
... it seems to be something that so many are totally unable to do for themselves and need someone to tell them what to do and how to do it or it's the fault of someone else.
Just how the hell did we survive childhood - climbing trees, playing in the street, jungle-gyms, swings and slides with hard ground under them, riding bicycles everywhere, crossing railway tracks, and so on - and yet we learnt so much about our own abilities and the consequences when things went wrong.
