Took the IH out on a shake down ride today. I have a few multi day rides planned over the summer and anything that’s a little annoying on an hour long ride is pull your hair out after 8 hours. It did great. Side gussets are awesome. First time on the bike in this jacket and there was zero push up or ballooning in the chest with them open. I was curious how the non snap down collar would behave at speed. I can attest it’s fine to 90.

Great Jacket, great boots, and an even nicer Triumph! Huge fan of these classic, yet modern Cafe Racers and your entire outfit goes great with it. May just have to look into one someday... :)

My GW Bronco took a trip this winter to the mainland to get a new snap for a pocket flap, and only just returned. If I did that I would have to quarantine for 2 weeks.
Dressed for Father's Day Brunch on my Lanai. A leather jacket and fur felt hat are just the thing I needed to round out my tropical attire.

wow lots of leg twisting on that, lefthand twill?
On righthand twill, the selvedge seam would twist to the back, with your jeans, it's twisted to the front. This is common after washing unsanforized jeans. However, nowadays you can buy a pair of brand-new lvc jeans with one leg twisted, as a ' period correct feature'

That's the coolest jacket you got, @dudewuttheheck !

Switched to Speed Demon later on. Using the most of this day as it might be my last chance in a long to wear leather. Back to t-shirts, shabby jeans and sneakers tomorrow...

Whenever in doubt, I put this jacket on and it reminds me why it's my favorite. I guess I'm stuck with it, for better or for worse. And when I try to think of any other jacket I'd rather have, I can't. I guess this'll do.
