Does your gear match your bike?

tached1000rr · 03-30-2009, 12:16 AM

Just wondering if you try to match your gear to your bike? I actually try to match it all with the helmet but I do have a set that matches the bike too.

Jacket does not match...wanted a red one but got the blue for $80.

$300 less than if I had bought a new red one.

I didn't match my bike for years. I usually ended up buying green gear because it would be on sale. finally got a green bike 3 years ago.

I don't care if I match, mater of fact, I'd rather be an eyesore of mismatched colors so people will notice me more.

Nope, my bike changes colors too much

I bought my gear before the bike, but I think it turned out pretty well. My bike only has basic colors though, so pretty much anything will go with it.

I prefer black/grey/white gear... so yeah, that kinda goes with anything, especially since i ride a black bike.

Helmet should be loud though...

Same for me. I try to keep my gear to be black grey/silver or white.

*I had mostly black red and white gear which worked with my tl and even my track bike (tl is red and gsxr was all white) but my priller is dark blue. Now I have a blue perfed jacket and just ordered the A* gloves in blue, but my helmets are still red, and my slayer helmet is more black but its slayer so thats ok
