I wear an Icon textile jacket...looking to get a leather....all black....doesnt really match my bike per say...I dont thinkg gear has to necessarily match your bike but I guess to each his own...some people match it up others dont.

yea, gear matching ur bike looks better. I wear a joe rocket rasp (textile) was thinking about getting leather, but gonna be too hot for me and i'll only use it for colder days. But i can just put another sweath shirt underneath and prob be the same. But i think that the jacket def has to match the helmet. unless its like a suomy that has crazy graphics and such

I have a motoport cordura with kevlar at any of the joints and a back protector (not a normal one but it seems pretty solid)... and yes, it matches the bike, or at least it did when it was clean.

Yup. Totally comfortable. I can't grab off the shelf so I had to have a custome fitment. Buddy of mine whos a Vanson dealer(doesn't stock but can get whatever) took the measurments. Expensive though, $800 and change for the jacket, $600 and change for the pants.
