| Another leather question. As I stated in my last post I'm looking at buying a two piece suit probably the Teknic Chicane from the response in my last post...My new quandry(and then I will order)I hate the blk/red...too garish...I'm not too fond of the grey/black either but am concerned that the all black(best looking) will just be too damned hot(the 2pc suits have no ventilation). Average temps here range 65-90 with a couple of weeks in the high 90s. I'm asking for your experience and opinions to help me finalize my choice. Thanks. Suits here |

| Re: Another leather question. You can get them ventilated or do it yourself. All black will be hot and not as visable too. |

| Re: Another leather question. The visability is an issue. As for the temp, just go faster  |

| Re: Another leather question. I don't know how much more visable the grey/black would be than black, and the red/black is so.....  |

| Re: Another leather question. I like the red/black combo. Black is too hot.  |

| Re: Another leather question. I like the red and black together...just not the pattern...plus I'm not sure I want to match the bike SO much... |
