    From the Site blurb:

    'Available in both Shadow Trooper black or the classic Stormtrooper imperial white, each suit comes complete with built-in CE-approved body armor to fully protect the motorcycle rider. If you want to ride in true STAR WARS™ style, have no doubts...this IS the suit you’re looking for! "


    What do you think, if you wore these riding would you look cool, lame, lame and cool ?

    If I saw someone riding in those, I'd laugh until I crossed the median and was killed by on coming traffic

    I would totally wear those. (As part of a charity ride day.) They are way less dorky than the X-Men/Batman suits available on eBay.

    When I was about 13 I totally would have (Although I would've been too young to ride an MC on the street). I think I'll wait for the fairing kits that make the bike look like a Forrest Speeder. That way there's a proper context for the outfit.

    You have to wonder how many of these they sell...

    If I saw someone wearing that I'd talk shit until they took the first swing... Anyone who buys (let alone WEARS) that shit likely lives in thier parents basement, contributes little (or most likely NOTHING) to society, and probably watches the neighbors kids and pets with an unhealthy interest....

    Don't get me wrong- Star Wars was cool. But this is even worse than your usual trekkie or comic convention dork.

    Wow, here I am joking about wearing them on a mocked up speeder and the actual damn thing exist! Still, they're 32 years too late for me! I'll be on the lookout at the MC show this weekend for any sightings

    Hmmm..........not a whole lot of color to those Stormtrooper leathers John but yeah I guess I'd prolly wear them just for a coupla laughs.
    Of course I'd hafta install one of my Orange mohawks on the helmet to kinda dress them up a bit though. :heh:

    Hey ya know now that we're on the topic of custom leather riding suits John I wonder what it would cost me to have the gal down at the leatherworks sew me up a set of custom leathers like this.

    Or better yet maybe one of these designs because I soooooo want a pair of those riding boots with the curly toes. :wacko: :lol:

    You'd certainly get noticed on the road in those mad Jester outfits thereby increasing safety, perhaps run it past the insurance company for a discount ? Then again those oversized neck ruffs might make you look a bit like a bird that's swallowed a plate*. :wink:
