QuoteAll I want is a kick-butt set of leathers for SERIOUS riding

so why are you looking at joe rocket crap?

if you want some riding gear designed for riding then find a real company that cares about the product and dosn't try to market to the mainstream. the only reason that they even make "girl leathers" is because it has become fashionable for girls to be a accessory on the back.

cheep leathers

although they don't offer them in pink, If they fit you right, even with the full CE upgrade kit they are cheeper than the JR crap. (never mind that the trixie crap isn't track leagel due to the lack of a 360* zipper at the waist)


please ignore the negitive tone, that's just me being a ass.

For one-piece leathers, you either have to go custom or get the Dainese Yoyo (the only current production one-piece for women).  I did the latter.  Teknic does make a 'serious' two-piece for women, but the men who read bike mags aren't interested in looking at something so utilitarian.   :roll:

Vanson will make you a suit, too.  But the pic on their women's site shows a woman in jeans and a little bitty yarmulke helmet, and I ding them for that.

I wasn't actually - it was just an ad that had chicks and leather - there are so few women's leather options out there as it is I have to check all new things thoroughly!

I have absolutely no problem with the girls OR the pants in that ad. Call me crazy. Or hetero, whatever you prefer.

Let me see... 2005 GSX-R 1000.  One gal in jeans.  All in flared pants that will ride up instantly in a crash.  All in heels, which fook with your ability to use the controls.  Not a helmet in sight.

Do you have a rash fetish?  Or a brain damage fetish?

i actually found these awesome ones "on&off" leathers that I'd buy in a heartbeat, but they don't distribute anywhere! - very cool stuff though

I don't have a problem with their gear, either. I think those girls in the ad looks HOT.  :thumb:  :kiss:

Of course, those girls in the ad are MODELS, who probably are not motorcycle riders. They look good for what they are; models. And they are dressed better than many riders (male or female) that I've seen, with the exception of not having any helmets.

2005-GS500-PDX - Don't let Roadstergal try to intimidate you. You didn't say anything wrong :lol:  :roll:
Richard died in a motorcycle accident that was at no fault of his own.  We lost a good friend and good member of this board.  Though Rich may be gone, his legacy will live on here.

Hey... At least it's something.  It may not be the best gear in the world, but crappy gear is better than no gear...

Would you rather see them wearing Daisy Dukes and a tube top?

I bet those JoRok Grrl leather pants would give more protection than the pants I ride in. :dunno:

Dig their hair.

Those pants are for the Starbucks posers.

Ooooh, someone's jealous!



Phaedrus, I know. No sweat. I'm just a quarter-lifed dirtbag. Excuse me for only caring that they're hot.  ;)
