Holy Crap! Shocked Roll Eyes
The Next Syd OzMo ride will be embarrassing  Embarrassed Embarrassed Embarrassed Way too much Ducati Branded stuff to bare.
This would really give the Jap Crap boys spmething to laugh about!  vomit
Haha, tell me about it, works fine as cupcake attire or spare jacket though ;o)
Anyone know how many letters I've got to pull off before it becomes acceptable for me to wear!? Maybe I can leave the D for Dainese.
In an attempt to make the two piece acceptable I'm going to find a way to connect my 'normal' jacket to the pants of the two piece. (Courser zipper on the two piece, though I thought they were meant to be standard).

Hi there Wells, sounds like you got the deal of the century on those leathers.  chug
Here are a few tips for you:
Careful not to overdry it. You will ruin the leather. As long as you don't make a habit of getting your leathers wet too often, they should be OK. Once they are dry, if they look a bit dehydrated, use the leather conditioner supplied with the suit to condition the leather (if it is infact conditioner??).
Don't rub in one place too much to avoid discolouration. (Wow, that didn't sound quite right, did it?)
Only condition the leather once it is completely dry. Buy yourself some light weight wet weather gear from a bike shop. Something that folds away quite compact for just in case. Don't buy a cheap and nasty one because they leak at the seams. Complete waste of time. Another option is to go to a tradies uniform supplier to buy it. They have nice compact ones that fold up really small.
Hope this helps.  waytogo

Thanks for the tips on the leather care  waytogo .. was curious about that.

RE Wets, I've got a set which work fine but I just can't find anywhere on the bike to stow them.. Complete lack of storage  Sad

Hi. I’m Troy McClure. You may remember me from such self-help tapes as “Smoke Yourself Thin” and “Get Some Confidence, Stupid!”

Yes, I feel your pain in regards to the lack of storage. Seriously considering a "Virgin Seat".  Grin

...so you've got the cupcakes sorted - they can carry the wets for you!

or a tank bag maybe ? i prefer that to a backpack. Usually just try to make the call re. wets/dry before a ride. If you get caught out, then hopefully it ain't a long ride.

Maybe someone could have bought up big time and did a road trip over to South OZ and set up shop for a week or two.

Betty, you and Jukie would be allowed here anytime I'm sure.
