Seeing as I'm now going by bike to Le Mans and beyond, my little lady has no choice but to overcome her fear (she broke her kneecap in a bike accident a few years back) and get on the back of my bike.

She needs leathers but obviously being a lass she wants to be stylish too. Apart from JS and Hein Gericke does anybody know any good places in Yorkshire where she can get some 2 piece stuff. There was a place in Hudds where I got mine but I'll be damned if I can remember the name or where it is.

Womens leathers seem to be hard to come by for a good fit so any recommendations for make would be helpful.

There are 2 places in Huddersfield this might have been:

Earnshaws, Manchester Road, (Just off the Ring Road on the A62 towards Manchester)

DC Motorcycles, Fartown (Out of Huddersfield on the Bradford Road, then on a side-street)

Hope this helps.

Earnshaws was the one I was thinking of in Hudds. Could do Sheffield aswell.

I'll give her some links to browse through and hope she doesn't have her really expensive head on.

Yep, that's what I've got myself. I was in two minds as I've heard differing stories about looking good rather than being functional but it seems decent to me (never had the need to test it yet though!!!)

Blatant sales pitch here.....

I have a set of Dainese 2pce ladies leathers (black trousers and orange white retro jacket) and 1pce Axo leathers (new black/chrome) for sale...

OK I'm nowhere near Leeds but that could be worked around if you're looking for good kit at a bargain price before it goes back on eBay.

Anna.
