Biker friend needs 9XL jacket...any suggestions

[heavenly.talker]

Hi

A friend of mine who is just getting back into biking needs to get a jacket. Leather or armoured will be considered.

Do you know of anywhere in Auckland that would stock big sizes?

If all else fails I think he will get have to get something made.

All suggestions appreciated

Cheers

I suggest just sizing up a likely looking cow - if he skins it right he could have a one piece suit without any tailoring at all

EDIT: sorry, I feel like a bastard now, but I couldnt resist

Take him to see Kerry and she will make any leather gear to fit anyone.

What crashe said.

I feel for him = I was into the 5X range before I did something about it.

So thats XXXXXXXXXL. good lord, I don't mean to be insensitive, but what sort of bike does he have and how good is the suspension, and for that matter how big is the seat.
I hate myself for saying this, but wouldn't a motorbike without an engine be better for him at this stage.

Duz he need a jacket? what organs is he in danger of damaging?

Maybe this gentleman has a medical reason as to why he is, his size.

So lets be helpful and help him out and help suggest a place that he can buy a jacket from.

What is important is that he loves to ride m/bikes.

Well I don't think he's planning on getting a 250. He'll rent to get through the licencing stuff and then get a brand new something. He has his eyes on three different types but I can't remember them.
