Title: Biker Jacket Post by: EJ on February 16, 2010, 01:11:32 PM Child had this in her mid-teens - not worn much as I think she found it rather heavy as it's hide leather.
Fastens from male side. Name inside is "Bishar" - never come across that anywhere. Size simply says 40 - but I don't know what country sizing it is as it is about 34 - 36 inch chest. Any offers? Title: Re: Biker Jacket Post by: Michelle on February 16, 2010, 11:15:18 PM Can we have a piccie Elaine?

Hubby used to have a Harley it looked lovely, but never plucked up courage to go on one Title: Re: Biker Jacket Post by: Eva on February 17, 2010, 11:23:21 AM When my rich uncle gets out of the poor house I will get one. I have a MC drivers license.
Haven't had one since mid -80s. It was a BMW R100 (was my brothers), had it for a year and a half but it was too big and too heavy. One day it laid down in the garage and I had to ask the neighbor for muscle power to help. :mwaha: Title: Re: Biker Jacket Post by: Michelle on February 17, 2010, 10:34:50 PM When my rich uncle gets out of the poor house I will get one.

when I first saw the heading of the topic , I thought it was your leather jacket !!!! The more adventurist side may be!! :buttrf: Title: Re: Biker Jacket Post by: EJ on February 18, 2010, 09:32:12 PM I was frequently on the back of Jones' bike - he didn't take his test in a car until he'd turned 40!
Title: Re: Biker Jacket Post by: Eva on February 18, 2010, 11:55:14 PM I knew it! :D
Title: Re: Biker Jacket Post by: EJ on February 19, 2010, 12:07:06 AM Quote I knew it! I was 16weeks pregnant and at the antenatal clinic when Sister Tutor bustled up as I was waiting to see the consultant (in the late '70s 32 was consider "old" to be having a first baby).In the course of chatting I said that we were going to the Isle of Man on the bike the next week to see the TT - then the consultant arrived "Mr A, Mr. A, Mrs Jones is going to the Isle of Man - on a motor bike!" "Oh - very nice, have a good time" On the first day there we went up to a goodly viewing place to watch the practice runs. Jones nudged me "What would Sister Tutor say to that??" An obviously pregnant lady was just lifting her Gold Wing onto its stand.

Title: Re: Biker Jacket Post by: Michelle on February 19, 2010, 01:06:45 AM Sorry Elaine. It is a lovely jacket Im sure it would whizz out of ebay
Title: Re: Biker Jacket Post by: EJ on February 19, 2010, 01:21:15 AM Don't have an ebay account - and I don't like ebay in general.
I did think that possibly someone here might know of someone who'd be interested. Title: Re: Biker Jacket Post by: Eva on February 19, 2010, 11:29:21 AM What a lovely story Elaine!
I always wanted to go to the Isle of man races (with the bike and friends) but we never got around to it. It was sort of "the ultimate thing" to do in my days. This was before I was 20. There was also another ultimate thing in mid winter to Germany (?) which I can't remember the name of, maybe Jones knows. A friend went once. Usually we had the bikes in the garage during winter, rebuilding and repainting and stuff. Anyway, sorry for sidetracking the thread. :::hide:: |
