What was the weight like on the Navy Cafe Racer? The size 42 one she still has on their site?
Yes that's the one, the most recent navy 42. I'd say it's maybe a pound heavier than the halfbelt? Maybe the feeling was because it hasn't been broken in, but it was a good amount stiffer and heavier feeling for sure.

Natal Leathers arrived yesterday! What an incredible jacket! Thick, heavy leather. Comfortable, soft & mobile. Fitment I believe is spot on! Honesty I couldn’t ask for a better jacket. Especially at a very reasonable price tag! I would like to thank @Monitor for talking about how he loved Natal Leather jackets, @ton312 for making this jacket look good in his pics & @Hh121 for moving this jacket along to me.

Vanson Sturgis today for the Saturday Harley ride. 7C when we set off. This jacket has 4 zipper vents for airflow when it heats up on the way home. Elasticated waist , not my favourite look but as a motorcycle specific jacket it stops "ballooning"
Buildings in the shot are late 1800's. Fremantle is a "preservation" city so is low rise for the most part.

Best cross zip I have so far, the horsehide is insanely beautiful (and robust as well!), the grain is consistently distribute to entire jacket, never had anything like this before, definitely eye opening experience, I start to understand why some people are obsessed with Japanese hide and maker.
It does cover my belt.

Bro, it looks great. Sounds like everybody worked together in unison to execute an elaborate play that marvelously ended with a SCORE!

It doesn't stay flat, so has to be removed.

I just really liked them. Shaped, not just straight cut and the curve made them actually be there. They were spectacular, like anything else on the jacket. But, it's your jacket. :)
