    The safest by far is leather!! A friend in ChCh has an article in a bike mag.. that did an abrasion test on leather, cordura, draggin jeans.. & I think also on normal jeans

    They had a round coarse sanding disk on a drill & held it on the fabric for so long.. the results were very clear!! If you wanna keep your skin on ya bones.. wear leather!!

    Cordura with the built in armour is all very well.. but 1 bin & ya gear is rooted!

    I'll get in touch with him to see if he can scan/email me the article & will try & put in up on here!

    That way, if you sell your Repsol Honda and buy ANY other make of bike, your leathers with still match!

    My current helmet is the same colour as my previous bike. Used to have a jacket to match but the washing machine ate it. So I guess I used to match, but I got over it! Cheers.
    When you take thousands of photos of your bike does the light from the flash weaken the plastic?

    Jacket is leather but the pants are cordura. Both in black so that is a match - until I put on my orange glow vest thingy.

    Black gloves and boots too.

    Blue and white Helmet so thinking of coulour coordinatiting with a Blue & White theme just to get away from the traditional black on black on black.

    Hey if money was no object I'm sure most of us would look like posing gits. However most of us are fiscally challanged from time to time, and items purchased separately. I think most people try and stick to a basic colour scheme, however others are quite happy as long at the gear does what it's supposed to.

    I've got a white leather jacket, cordura black jacket (1st purchase before got the leather one for Xmas), black cordula pants, white helmet, also have as spare helmet (white,blue and grey design), black boots, black gloves.

    I'd like to be a bit slimmer and get a one piece one day, guess I'll have to start exercising and watching what I eat - darn it! Oh and get a windfall of cash for the one piece.

    I got black cordura gear, top an bottom...Good boots and gloves. I just take the liner out in summer, but it still gets a bit warm.

    So one day, I'd like to buy myself a one piece leather suit.

    I have Grey/White Spool 1 piece so it goes with anything.

    I also have a Rocket Jacket, Red/White with a smattering of silver with black leather trousers. The jacket goes well woth the Patriot Graphic Shoei.

    But going naked is the best co-ordination and when you get sun burnt is goes well with a red bike!!
