Well been to BKS made to measure today in Exmouth. 3 hr chat and measure up with Brian ( nice bloke, really knows his stuff ) Now waiting for finally design & price to be emailed ( need to be sitting for that ) know I've got carried away with extras ! But really great place, and amazing what they can offer .......if you get chance to visit. Watch this space for update
Brian is a lovely chap and when your dealing with a company that can do pretty much what you want you do get a good service. I have had my BKS made to measure leathers for 5 years now. Fit perfect still and have been the only leathers I have owned that fit and feel amazing even the first time you put them on. IE no need to loosen them up. I went for 1 peice as I wanted something for summer and TD's. Unless your using them all year I would suggest lots of air vents. I have them on the body, legs and they feel great when it's hot. I upgraded the leather from cow to Roo. Better abrasive properties and lighters. but this comes at a cost. I also upgraded the armor. So have flexible armor so this never digs into your body when moving about on the bike yes the cost is more than your run of the mill leathers. As far as the wife know's they cost me £900 but add 1k onto this and thats how much I paid. but would I use them again. hell yea. I don't clean them much but they have never failed me. No issues with zips failing or parts falling off. you should be very happy with what you get and looking forward to seeing your new leathers
You can get off the peg leathers that cost more. I could have saved over £500 without the roo or uprated amor so so are not all that price
Well the design is here, delighted with it , will go with the HP4 great I think . Like Remal has said, amazing what this company can offer, and it's up to you what upgrades you go for....but hey ho..sod it Upgraded Full body vented Leather,armour, sliders, titanium joint patches,personal lettering, etc, etc you name it I upgraded it.. Also new liner called outlast ( have a look online at it) looks the nuts Ordered today for January delivery Now £2216.98 lighter in the pocket....but can't wait to get em Ps..don't tell the wife .she thinks £1600 rest coming out of the man cave stash
We seem to all have the actual price and the wife price. Then there is the she will never notice I have it option, that is very popular in my house !
Woooo getting excited, had an email..leathers are in final finish production phase, should be ready this week, Brian says leathers look good .. Watch this space Or as my wife keeps calling it ...leather onesie
If you look after them they'll last forever. When I get home I will upload a photo of my other BKS suit, it' 19 years old!
