Am I asking for trouble? Sorta contemplating a white leather jacket here as I think white would be easier to see, (I know, most cagers only see their phone) and cooler in the high temps.

Am I asking for unending cleaning and eventual heartache?

I may go with the black one tho...

You can only get away with wearing a white leather jacket if you are an Elvis impersonator. Anybody else wearing this will never hear the end of it.

White leather might look a little too Miami Vice.

I have a friend who has white race leathers he races in.................um they err................ aren't white and they will never be white once you start riding in all weathers in them!

I just saw a video review of this in white and the guy looked like 1/2 a storm trooper!!!!

White leathers will make you faster!!!

And WTH is wrong with stormtrooper outfits??...those guys looked cool...granted, they never hit anything with their blasters, but they still looked cool.

Well, except for that one guy who clobbered the door with his head...that guy was funny!

^THIS!!

But if you're going to go white, I'd say go all the way:
Jacket, pants, boots, gloves, & helmet...then change your name your middle name to Stig.

If you like the jacket it white, go for it!

That's all there is to it.

...and then I see pix of Agostini in a white leather jacket, and it invalidates all the fashionista's arguments against it...

I thought white was retired when Evil Knievel passed.

actually... I just "retired" my white gloves as they wore out on me.
