Re: knee sliders

Hi Deano, knee sliders go under the kneejoint at the top outer bit of your shin.

Is this thread in preparation for our ride out ?

Re: knee sliders

Re: knee sliders

I have to say that those Arlen Ness leathers are by far the best (and most expensive) I've ever owned. They're ultra comfortable and coped well with the amount of weight (due to being on the sick) I put on over the back end of last year . They're suprisingly waterproof compared with some that I've owned too, even though they're vented on the chest and legs. If you have the funds, I'm sure you'd get a set that fit as they do them in smaller sizes too.

Re: knee sliders

I,ve got the same problem, cant get 38inch waist and dumpy leg size anywhere. So got made to measure 2 piece from Scott Leathers at Barnard Castle. Fit is excellent and so comfortable I can wear them for bed !
