I'm currently in the process of ordering a J106 through Insurrection. I want to make this my ultimate D-pocket motorcycle jacket, that removes any desire for another jacket in this style because it'd be perfect. Now, I recently got my eyes on the two tone in black & brown FQHH, and I have to say it looks spectacular... I was hoping that someone who owns the two tone J106 could post some pics of the jacket and of themselves wearing it in different poses/styles... This would really help me in deciding which color(s) I want to go with.

Thanks in advance!

I'm planning to order one of these, myself, in the two-tone. I'll choose all-brass hardware, but I have become aware of two different styles of this jacket: full bi-swing, and something much less, and haven't decided which way to go on this. Thoughts, anyone?

I like a bi-swing, it has a neatness to it and I like the 'deco' feel, though it does add to the weight a bit.

I prefer the look of a shoulder gussets, but I ride so I would have to go with full action back... Though yes, now that you've mentioned it Sloan, full action back version does possess a certain Deco beauty!

Did you take a look at the two tone King of the Road? http://www.aeroleatherclothing.com/product-detail.php?id=1520 It is a very similar jacket and Aero has updated the photos so it may help you out a bit.
Anyway, I absolutely love the two tone and would probably go with it if I knew how to wear it. :)

Thanks for the link! Those pics do help a bit. I am strongly opting for the two tone... It'd look supreme. I think I can pull it off :)

I have decided to go two tone with brown contrast stitching & shoulder gussets! I've already got two classic, all-black MC jackets (Perfecto & Langlitz Columbia) so it was time for somerhing else. I'm 100% sure it'll look great on me, and that I'll be abe to pull it off. Thanks everybody for the comments and advice. I'll post pics in 2 months when I receive it-- making a deposit next week!

Very envious mate. Great choice, I look forward to seeing it.

I too think you've made a great choice, especially seeing how you already have several black Perfecto styled MC jackets. Every two tone I've seen here so far looked killer and I'm sure yours won't be an exception.
