| Re: Which Leather Suit? Thanks for asking - I actually was offered a deal on a full custom suit, referred by one of the members here. Ordered earlier today from dvx leathers. Should be ready in about 5 weeks, and I can't wait!  |

| Re: Which Leather Suit? Nice design bwhip, and of course, I like the colors.
Not to rain on your parade though, 5 weeks from now in Idaho would be like 5 weeks from now in Minnesota.
Sooooo... I guess you will be wearing the new leathers in front of the TV, playing PS2 or X box motorcycle games just like me???
Of course, you gotta break those leathers in,... yeah, that's what I keep telling my wife.  |

| Re: Which Leather Suit? I, too think that's a pretty neat design. I might suggest swapping the black and silvery gray, just because the darker the leathers the hotter they are. But that's just me. |
