Thanks! I am thinking I am looking for a different *look* than I currently have, in addition to durability, rash resistance, year around use and visibility. I have been riding the street for many years now and have all the leather stuff I need, some going back to my parents riding days of the 50's. Great stuff, but not KLR approved, if you know what I mean. Leather is great against rash and wind, but not worth a penny in wet-muddy or dusty stuff. Black leather is also hard to see at night and hotter than the bad place in the Sacramento summer (can you say 110F?). --- Rev.
