Hey Guy's, I think I have the record, so far. My leather jacket is 44 years old and in perfect condition. I am 62 years old and when I bought my first motorcycle, in 1962, my Mother bought me a leather motorcycle jacket so I would "be safe". I have used the jacket all these years, but I admit, I have had long periods of no riding followed by a few years of riding. In the early years I remember using saddle soap on the jacket, but other than that I have done nothing to in the last 30 years.
Now I use it all the time, and love it. I remember it was made by a company in Ventura California, maybe "Ventura Leather"? My Mother bought it in Pasadena Calif. What's fun is to look at the scars on the leather and remember those crashes, WOW!! Thanks Mom!
Should I be treating the leather with something to preserve it?
