It was amazing that in the '80's we all thought that a polyester paddock jacket would protect us in an accident, still got a couple of Kawasaki 'team green' jackets in the wardrobe that I wore on my Kr-1 back in the day and embarrasingly they still fit me! I suppose that when you're young you feel indestructible, used to wear said paddock jacket with white trainers and tatty blue jeans and no gloves!, now i'm twice the age I wear kevlar jeans, textile jacket with full armour and proper motorcycle ankle boots and carbon fibre reinforced gloves, we've become a bunch of wimps

Standard 80's bike gear, Nolan helmet, Kett leather jacket, Lee jeans and random trainers.
Not sure why the photo has attached side on, click on it and it's fine.
