Tracking down gear to match my bike

    Ladies and gentlemen,

    I'm trying to source a leather jacket to match my bike. It's a Suzuki GSX-R 600 K1 (picture linked below). It's not strictly Telefonica Movistar livery, but it's definitely using the Movistar colours (dark blue with day-glo yellow). All jackets I've found on the web so far have Honda emblazened on them ... which would look a bit silly. Other GSX-R jackets have large amounts of white in them, wich again wouldn't really suit my bike.

    Do any of you good people know a shop I could go to, to help me source such a thing (if it indeed exists).

    Suzuki GSX-R

    Thanks in advance,
    Al.

    They seem to have a colour combo similar to your bike already

    Nothing looks sillier to me than the lads whose gear matches their bike!

    Each to their own I suppose. :)
