I picked up a set of MotoGP leathers from TPM at the NYC Bike Show. After returning home, I saw some posts about the Kangaroo suits coming apart at the shoulders {thanks Cakes} and I sent the suit to Barnacle Bill for reinforcement stitching. I also had some things installed while it was there.

No, they are beneath the liner. I can feel the leather strip he sewed into the shoulder seams, but the nylon suit liner covers them pretty good.

Thats a nice suit. I tried them on when I was looking around. They fit me perfect until just above the knees. They were too loose. But they were comfortable and light as hell.

Looking good Ken. BB is definitely the man to have working on your leathers.

yeah, that's true, but Spyder Leatherworks is the woman to have working on your leathers... Spyderchic does all the warranty work for the MotoGP suits, by the way.
