Anyone here into motorcycles?

Everything that is outdoors and not hunting or shooting. Talk about fishing, 4wd, archery, camping, motorbike riding etc etc.

Anyone here into motorcycles?

Post by The Raven »

I recently re-discovered my old motorcycle leathers and surprisingly found that while they are in great condition they won't fit me anymore. No idea why they won't fit after 20 years....

Before deciding to sell I thought someone here may be more up to date on bike gear and able to help me with realistic pricing. Do we have any bike riders here?

I know what the gear is worth new today (they still make it), but if there's no market in 'used' gear I'll keep them as a memory of my youth.

So before Keith jumps on me: This isn't an advert! If I do decide to sell I'll put a proper ad in the For Sale section with a price :poke:

What I've found:

1. MARS (of Elizabeth St, Victoria) 'Brando' jacket. Size 42 Long. As new.
2. MARS leather pants, padded knees. Size 34 Long. As new.
3. Thomas Cook "Johnny Reb" boots. I can't find the size but it's probably 9 or 10, noting my size 11 feet won't fit. Near new.
4. ATSA gloves. Fair condition. Size L.

No pics, because this isn't an ad. PM to suggest fair pricing BUT please no offers (to be fair).

If there's interest here, I'll post it in the For Sale section in the next few days.
