    Morning,

    Just a thought, has anyone suggested a forum soft shell fleece. Like the bsb team fleeces. Maybe have the forum traders advertise on them.

    And any others that sponsor the forum.
    I've several including TT legends, tosland,Castrol Honda. Some for wearing casual and some over my one piece. There's hundreds of ideas, I for one would def purchase a soft shell fleece that was forum derived.
    It's only a thought, would anyone else like to add to the idea, feel free

    Some ideas: Clinton Enterprises Honda Racing TT Legends

    One thought on this having just arranged some custom soft shell fleece is the potential cost of setting up logos for embroidery.

    You also need permission to use the logos.

    Also garment sizing - there is nothing worse than buying xl with plan to go over leathers say then finding it does not fit but its way too big if you normally wear a large.

    I think its a great idea but needs to be costed carefully.

    Can put you in contact with a place near me in city centre manchester, or the company I just used.

    Like I said " some for wearing casual "

    If the traders want to put there logo on fleeces maybe they could throw some money in for the set up. Great advertisement for them aswell. Last time I got stuff done I think the set up was £50ish.

    This jacket is the same as the one whit and hadyon use on British Eurosport for bsb cover.

    Like the style. Would definitely be in for one like that, as long as the trader logos fit in with it nicely.

    Quick Poll:

    Are you a knobber that wears a fleece over your leathers, when it's cold?

    Yes:

    I'm trying but I'm still not getting it. The penetrative power of a 50 mph headwind is going to go through a fleece like shit through a goose and because the thermal capacity of the fleece is based on body heat filling the voids between the threads, I just don't get how they can work on the outside.

    Great as a secondary hugger or a fly swat, but to keep you warmer? I'm not seeing it guys.

    I don't think you're knobbers though.
