4C start today , max 16 at 3pm. Don't let the sun fool ya !

9C at 10am when we all met at Scarboro beach

Dozen of us down to Fremantle port for coffee and focaccia. 100 K's round trip.

Photo taken thru' the bollards parked on the pier. All the motorbikes do it.

Some classic Beemers there today , one a 1954 that the guy bought in 1961 and still owns

Bloke in his late 70's , good on 'im ! ( forgot to get a photo sorry !)

This Schott 441PP steerhide jacket I am wearing has a zip out faux fur liner , often too hot here ( NOT TODAY !)

I’m generally a big fan of the Simmons Bilt version of the J100 you have but I think this Schott is your best fitting jacket.

Cheers and nice bikes!

Thanks fellas. As far as WD motorcycle jackets go, this is my favorite style of theirs.
They (He) made really interesting jackets in the 60s too but they're scarce and usually too small.

Ahh I just stumbled across this thread....
My two favourite motorcycle jackets are made by a Melbourne company called Stagg leather
When I'm home from work in the morning I'll do some pictures
One is a 1960's "Brando" style with a single side popper my father owned
The other is a later 90's made "Perfecto" style with the Schott lapels and side lacing
