The puzzle

It takes time to create the perfect "I´m just riding to the corner shop" look. It´s not easy when the Swedish motorcycleshops seem to think that all bikers wear black Gore Tex together with their v-twins. Here is my recipe for a good Yamaha sr suit:

Davida brittish racing green helmet - keeps all the exhaust noice on the outside of your head. Harolds Gear gloves from Japan will show all the beautifull oil stains from the roadside tinkering. 


Boots form Vitesse. It took me a long time to find a "not black" racing boot. Realy good craftmanship, and the size chart on their web is good and accurate. Vitesse knows how to care for their customers. If you order from them you will get a unik level och packaging, textil wrappings and personal wellcome letters. A total joy.


Vintage leather in funny colors rather than hi-viz vest. A friend of mine has grown in a way that is not compatible with his jacket. Fortunately he asked me if I wanted to buy his vintage Manx leather, hand made on Isle of Man in 1980´s? Don´t mail me, I´m not selling..:)


Oh - and of course Dragin Jeans.
