Favorite Leather Jacket

Joe rocket king cruiser has served me very well.....could use a little more ventilation though.
 
Yeh it's still black though isn't it? maybe just high vis' vest will do it.
 
Thanks for reminding me, ive been meaning to buy a Belstaff Jacket for the past 12 months
 
Bought a 1960's leather jacket at a garage sale for $10. Was lined with rabbit fur .. every time I wore it my tee shirt ended up rolled up .. like a boob tube , serious. Couldn't take the f#ckin jacket off till I was home. Just had it re-lined at Kazzmaz in Perth. Now I had been told it was "boob tubing" me because the rabbit fur was put in upside down. I thought hahahaha , yeh right. Chick at Kazzmaz thought the same thing.
Moral to the story .. just go buy a Joe Rocket etc.
 
For god's sake - don't get the new stuff - It's an Italian Fashion garment - NOT a robust bit of kit.
Is that true ? Damm it i had a Bellstaff jacket back in the early 90's and it was a great bit of kit.
 
Personally I don't really like it - but if you WANT TO BE SEEN - DAYGLO with REFLECTIVE PATCHES.
I'd suggest an over-vest - if only for the night runs. This one for example http://olympiamotosports.com/product/blaze-safety-vest/
Hahaha that just reminded me of the bloke on the Pakrats ride i went on with @Evil Mitch last Sunday this fella busted out a full one piece hivis green rain suit at the 1st sign of rain and promptly told everyone he was pack leader lol.
