Title: childrens leathers???
Post by: Court Jester on January 24, 2007, 09:16:38 PM
i'm looking for a set of children's leathers.
my oldest is 7 years old. he's picking up the pocket rocket and getting damn good at it so i want something to protect him if he goes down.
along with that, he's been dying to ride on the street with me. i told him he could ride with me when he could sit up right and his feet could touch the pegs. well, as much as i hate to say it, he's freaken growing and i regret telling him i would take him out on the back of the bike. so i need something that will save his ass if something really out of the norm comes up. lord knows i'll be tip-toeing with him on the back.

anybody know of any leathers out there with knee sliders and the whole nine yards???

spyderchic??? hook a botha up...

800-214-RACE.  Talk to Audrey, tell her I sent you from here (MotoLiberty).

She can get leathers that will fit kids...

And you would be WRONG!  I was taking toys apart and putting them back together before I could walk or talk.  If it had wheels and I could ride it, full speed was the only speed.  Sometimes things got in the way.  If emergency room visits then were scrutinized the way they are today, the cops never would have believed that it wasn't my parents doing all that bodily harm to me. :ahhh:

We're still deciding whether we want to get into kid's leathers.

On another note, what size are the boots he'll be needing? Rhiannon has a set of Alpinestars that are too small and they're up for sale, size 36 euro. Let me know.

i think 6 in US numbers. not sure what that converts into in euro.
if i got you the measurements; could you make a good solid custom set for him???

Check out the new "Pedrosa" line from Alpinestars, basically a Disalvo edition in Repsol colors.

I think Alpinestars size 36 euro converts to a US 3 1/2  or a women's 5 1/2.

I was looking at the Kart suits but couldn't find any that were leather. Nice suits that Alexa could fix them for sliders. They would also need some armour added.
