OK I am guilty of this also with a jacket that matches the color of my bike. I did this after I saw Dan wearing one at last years central rally. In my case it is ironic because I usually don't give a crap how I look. My cold weather riding gear last year was brown carhart bibs and hooded jacket.  Dave
A pistol is like a parachute, if you need one and don't have one you will never need one again.

Self incrimination.....

Unfortunately the White Power Ranger suit no longer fits me. The Leather shrunk... :pardon: The suit is in California looking to be donated to a new owner that is willing to take on the White Power Ranger Role.

You can retain your power ranger status with a quick call.

Barnacle Bill does fantastic work at reasonable prices. He can easily alter that suit to fit you. I take all of my repair and alteration work to him (3 hour drive for me each way...) I have an odd body type and he does a great job getting rack suits pants and jackets to fit. He has modified old one piece suits for a few friends of mine to recycle old track leathers. It sounds odd, but it makes a very cool 'retro' jacket and conversation piece.

We're not a club. Clubs have rules. Pay dues. Wear hats and shit.

We rode through Black Canyon to get to Telluride. Stopped at Blue Mesa Reservoir for a short break on the way back to Gunnison.

I tried to fit in the suit and will agree, the leather seems to have shrunk. So I will hold on to it till a smaller member can claim it...
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.
