Hi all, just out of curiousity, wondering what people wear? cut the jokes though, i mean leathers or fabric, kevlar etc and which do you prefer?

I believe wax cotton is very popular

sorry couldnt resist.

Leathers, jacket & trousers if I am riding solo, but Draggin Jeans if I am 2 up or if there is going to be more stopping than riding.

textile, cause its easier for work, i have leathers but they are going on Ebay.

always leather jacket and if im just nipping to town or up the road normal jeans, a bit further afield textile trousers and a spirited spin i wear a 2 piece leather suit.

Spada textiles - fitted the budget and ditto, good for work and winter. Do want a Scott two piece but no idea where the dosh is coming from at the moment.

Suomi Spec1R (2 of-noisy as fook tbh- but fit my stupid head nice and ventilate well )

Carrera leather jacket (Weise fabric depending on how I "Veil" )

Wolf leather bottoms

Alpinestars SMX+ boots

None discript gloves (kangaroo hide-apparently??? but they are comfy and well made ) + a pair of Alpinestars Jet 2 Gortex gloves for the crap end of the year. They're great.

Oh, I like to coat my bollox in Paxo too depending on what kind of speed I fancy doing

Black leather.
If they can't see my shining pearl yellow bike coming it wouldn't matter if I was dressed head-to-toe in Christmas lights.
(noticed how you can't say "fairy lights" any more?)

But I'm currently converting a one-piece leather's speed hump to take a Scotoiler, with a drip-feed of Anusol to my butt cheeks in case I want to ride to anywhere more than two fuel stops away.

Might be a useful bit of kit for those heading to a certain MotoGP this year...

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about

Oh, Leather and denim, I like to let my balls breathe once in a while... Are you all gay? Is this still the VTR web site?

Okay, so you're a bit of a biffer, don't worry about it, my old six pack has turned into a beer barrel over the years too. Not stopped me, I just bought a bigger leather

It's not a beer belly, it's enhanced storage capacity.

And it helps to keep the rain off me tank protector.

Not stopped me, I just bought a bigger leather Nah, I REFUSE to buy bigger and have plans afoot to loose some of the weight my nerve pain (take for damaged nerves due to a prolapsed disc done skiing)meds have put on me, which, involves me taking a trip to Muswell Hill London in 2 weeks time.. So by end of summer will look gorge again But I'm sure you are very happy in your new size leathers :wink:

Lurpack!, I like that I might just have to borrow that saying I don't mind the bigger leathers, I find it's easier just finding fatter friends to talk with and that gives the illusion I'm still slim Don't have to worry about all that dieting malarky then and I'm sure less stress is better for me than less calories
Good luck with the op Tracy (without the E). One of the girls in work has just had the same thing and she's up and about and already feeling soo much better.
