Howdy peeps, I came across these and retro jackets and only wish I was small enough to fit either. The red one would look the business against the red and white Ts. Shame they are not in my size, both frank thomas and on flea bay. Any Ideas where I can find similar retro leathers?






p.s My gen 2 T is due its 6k service, but I have been ignoring the little spanner on the dash for a couple of hundred miles now. Saving up so I can get a few mods done together with the service, is this advisable, how long can I get away with it?

Nob, you pusillanimous, sanctimonious, egregious dead camel fart huffing gold lame wearing chicken **** rat ******* ****, you wouldn't know a sweet pair of leathers if they came up and bit you on your diminutive manhood. Yer STILL jealous of my sexy *** in that yellow set of leathers. You just WISH that you looked that good....


Besides, they were the only ones that were made big enough for me...

I heard old Jacko's clothes were getting punted on Ebay, looks like it's true.
I'm holding out for the one white glove and glitter socks. The jackets would be better sold to some blind charity.

Wow, I never envisaged such a reaction, to each their own, I suppose! I for one strongly feel that the bikers clothing market is rather dull and mostly lacks style and individuality. Too much stuff out there is trying too hard to look futuristic/sci fi but lacking style in my humbled opinion. For sure the technology has come in leaps and bounds and I cant knock morden garms on that. I do however think that as bikers we sometimes too easily fall for blatant marketing crap - averages of £500-800 per suit! I dont care how much r&d has gone into the thing, that amount of tax is extortionate....anyways, my rant is over, Good to see that at least one other thunder rider shares the me crappy fashion sense.

Laters!
