My bad weather/cold day riding outfit with a vintage vibe is the Lewis Mudlarker combined with an Ortema amoured shirt (Level 2) underneath. Wearing the shirt with my leather jackets as well. Since it‘s a level 2 shirt with back and chest protector it does add some bulk but it fits under my...

he who dies with the most toys wins! :D

Marvelous boat! just wondering, why the heck did you name it after your mother in law? is it so that you can tell your wife you are spending time with "Marguerite" when you are actually on your boat? ;)

taking the jacket off is no problem, you just lift the jacket hem, grab for the zipper in your back and unzip the jacket from your trousers. zipping them together is also not that big of a deal it just doesn't look as elegant when you're trying to connect zipper and band with your hands on your...

Just bought a Schwabenleder Solitude Cafe Racer jacket which is unfortunately not produced anymore but there are sometimes one or two in the bay. Schwabenleder is a well known custom racetracksuit manufacturer in Germany. The jacket is made from heavy 'cognac brown' vegetable tanned buffalo hide...

I got a Vanson Raid too. It's basically the Vanson Arrow jacket but made from Vanson's heavy competition hide and with a one piece back. I like it a lot, quite a good "do it all" jacket. You got a great deal, congrats!

My one and only so far, one month old 2021 Kawasaki z900rs. Rides as sweet as it looks. A modern day UJM in my opinion. Not as revolutionary as the Z1 900 though.

Never liked coffee, I'm a tea and diet coke guys so I can't help you on this topic. But since you mentioned having had a lot of bad coffee I think I never had a (really) bad cup of tea... Aren't there as big quality differences with tea than with coffee?

@Edward gonna get my Kawasaki Z900RS on wednesday next week but I've been riding my dad's BMW RnineT lately so I did spent some time on the bike. All in all I'm quite pleased with the Daytona boots and I do think they suit a retro bike like the Z900RS well. No doubt there are prettier boots and...

you would blend in just fine! :cool:

hell of a jacket, suits you very well! kind of makes you look like a villian from the second season of the Cohen Brothers' fargo series haha. Which is of course a good thing!

just wanted to keep you guys posted: I returned the Red Wings and opted for the Daytona Road Star GTX boots. I do trust the quality and sturdiness of the RWs but the design is outdated from todays point of view. There's no protections besides the sturdiness of the leather. There is just no...

If you want a classic looking helmet with modern features the Arai Concept-X HA ist the way to go imho https://www.araihelmet.eu/de/collection/detail/concept-x

Do you have issues with wind coming through the front zipper causing a „balloon effect“ when riding fast on the highway?

Very cool jacket, ageing nicely and perfect fit imo. It‘s some kind of a sheene, isn‘t it? Regarding the use on a motorcycle, do you wear just the jacket or can you fit an amored shirt underneath? If you were buying the jacket again, would you opt for a windflap? I‘m kind of in the same...
