    Gentlemen

    Many thanks indeed for a top day's fettlement yesterday.

    I am pleased to report that with Mr Hagon's finest springs now at both
    ends, the old barge felt almost sprightly on the way home. Mind you,
    having both bars at the same height / angle was a definite plus.

    Pity about the comedy leathers Loz, they were so you...

    If anyone else reading this is after a set of good quality, but
    ultimately gay leathers then let me know. I reckon they would fit
    someone about 5'10" ish, around 11-12 Stone.

    All good then, another happy visitor.
    Yeah, isn't it just. Did that sound a bit unconvincing?
    I'd have said someone 6 foot and 13-14 stone myself - I'm 5' 8" and 11
    stone.

    Very happy indeed. Now thinking of some subtle form of repayment
    (watch this space).
    Indeed. For anyone wondering, adjustable Jota bars are great, but
    please, do set them up on with the bike on the centre stand, not the
    side stand. Mine were nice and level with the bike on the side stand,
    but oddly pissed when the bike was upright.
    Hmm, I was sort of going by my boy's size, at they fit him rather well.

    Whilst I can get into them, I can't get out without mechanical
    assistance, and I'm 5'11" and 14st.

    All a bit odd really, having read Dan White's thread, his gay leathers
    are a smaller size than mine, and he's a fat fucker.

    I reckon your theory of made (or possibly altered) to fit may be
    correct.

    You are not the first to do that. I got mine to one 'click'. They looked OK
    with the bike on the side stand, indeed they looked OK when seated on the
    bike. An hour of riding, one aching shoulder later and a mate, whose house
    I'd just arrived at saying 'your bars are on the piss' convinced me
    otherwise.

    Do you have to do the flappy armed spaz dance too?. I can get in to my one
    piece leathers in about, ooh, 30 seconds. Much hilarity ensues when it
    comes to removing them. Imagine drunken 'Dad dancing' at a wedding
    reception and you are about there.

    Oddly, it takes longer to remove them the earlier in the year it is. Hmm,
    maybe there is a thesis in how leathers shrink over winter when not worn...

    Twas a nice warm day.
    To complete the picture he should have rode my bike.
    More like 14 stone.

    Nice meeting you.
