Getting mine and @Black Orchid's one piece leathers ready by feeding the leather in preparation for spring summer 2015 on the ZX10R Ninja

[Black Orchid]

Yayyy! One piece feels so much better than winter twos

Sam, our part time model, photographer and just generally nice guy to have around, popped in yesterday to show us his new toy.  I made him try on a J100…..

Wicked Harley!

[injunjack]

short in sleeves….suitable for sidewalk commandoes

[Giles]

He knew that, that's why he will get one made to his exact needs….

[injunjack]

longarmed or jacket made that way??

[Giles]

He's tall and long armed, but it is not his jacket.  It was just a standard size 40 I had lying around, he put it on and sat on his bike  so we could work out what size to make his….

Ok, seems also a bit restrictive in the shoulders as well, but that's how non bi-swings are.  Also chest seems a bit loose.. a full custom might be in order

[madmonday]

best way to get fitted is to get on the damn bike & get measured proper like.

freakin' @injunjack , good to read ONE of your posts.  hope all is well & please let's see your 461s & other goodies you been beating up the past couple of years.

[Giles]

Exactly.  That is what we were determining and what we will do….

Thanks @monday , I'm glad you understood what I was doing….

MM, all fine here, been "busy" with al kind of things. Slight changes in life etc.

G-man, I suppose it's going to be strictly riding jacket?

[Giles]

I have no idea, it's for Sam.  What he does with it is up to him….

[johnathon]

What is that Harley. I'm not really up on the latest model Harleys. That one looks not too bad though, is it some type of sporty model ?

[Giles]

Forty-Eight

[johnathon]

Forty eight… that's a sportster model isn't it. It actually looks pretty nice. I went off new bikes many years ago but this one looks like it's based on old school Harleys.
I actually might go and take a look at that bike but it wouldn't surprise me if its not available here. I gotta get something with an electric start, my main rider still gotta be kick started and my knee doesnt like it sometimes. Not really a fan of the sports bikes with all the crap on them but this bike looks good.

Harley has done a great job with their Sportster models. The 48, The 72 and 883 Iron are all really nice retro looking bikes. I am planning on customizing an 883 in the next year as a project to keep me busy during the off season. While sportsters are a little small for me, I really like the look and they are great for the city. My son would love one, but I told him he can be like me and wait until he's in his 40's and has grown kids before getting a bike!

You need to get him a bike pronto if he's old enough and wants one. To long to wait till 40's. When I came home from getting my license my dad surprised me with a brand new commando. That same bike today is probably my main rider.
There's something special when a father and son share a love for bikes.
We got this one to do together a few years ago but he got too old and I just cant get enough enthusiasm going to do it on my own. Maybe oneday.
