Born To Fish - Forced To Work.
My baked bean cans cost me a couple of bucks.
Was good fun while they lasted - they are so loud scraping on rough seal I made an old lady who was walking her dog jump about a foot off the ground as I tore past with a shower of sparks behind me hahaha. Wouldn't spend big dollars on the real ones cause they are a bit wanky eh.

Ok im coming out of my closet just this one time, I too kinda have a curvy figure which makes it worse beacuse im a guy. Well the waist kinda goes in and the bum pushes out. When I was in college the girls in my year would slap me on the arse and squeeze because apparently it is firm, tight...
I wear jeans
.....if I find this as a signature Ill hunt you down, serious, capice?

Interesting to here your coments about the velcro.
Good grip on the velcro requires that both the hook and the loop velcro are compatable (and in good condition. ie. it Does wear out).
Could you tell me the specific problem you had with them?

hooks on the knee slider arent big enough (deep enough?) to hook onto the loops on the leathers...

For whom the bell tolls
henderson m/c had some nice bling ones with 1cm steel ball bearings mounted in them. Were only $69... if i was a knee down person i would probably have bought them, i'm carrying enough steel in my gloves as it is though.

where opinion holds more weight than fact.
It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.
BAD DOG!!
Did anyone else see an article in Performance Bike a few years back when they tested different sliders? My favourite was FIMO (sp), you can buy blocks of it at toyworld and then make your own pattern
gee wizzz
well just to update on this thread--i switched to the sidi sliders.
They slide well and dont grab and wear slowly. BUT they are pretty darn loud--So much so its a distraction.

just got back from the isle of mann TT
fantastic racing and these guys know what they are doing
watched fronm several view points and didn't see any of them scraping their knees
so what is up with the scraping of knees, is it showmanship? suitable for Moto GP only?or do the TT guys not know what they are doing?

different type of racing... most corners on the street, you wont have the same kind of lean angle that you get on the track...

Shaun... did you ever need to get your knee down at the TT?
For mine, I've just raced at Oran Park, and done ridedays at Eastern Creek and Phillip Island in the last 3 weeks, and my sliders still look like they did when they came out of the packet. Truth be known I'm not Mr. 110% on the track, but I was no nanna either and there are some tools on new R6 and R1 type bikes that were embarassed by the 5 year old Trumpy I was on (but then there were other guys on road and race bikes that made me look less than average too!)
Do you need to get your knee down on the race track? No
Does it help to get your knee down if you actually know why you're doing it? For sure.
Be really good to read Shaun's perspective on this topic.
