Brown or Black leather jacket

Is there any significance behind choosing one over the other?

Just looks!

Since you're in MA, check out MotoMarket in Acton. They have a great selection of gear, and given your price range, so nice euro stuff that you won't see in your regular bike shop. They certainly aren't the cheapest, I'll tell you that right out front, but they stand by the products they sell.

Yeah i wasn't sure if there was any historical significance. I noticed they have a brown seat too. I was about 90% sure it was just looks but started wondering if it symbolized certain years or European vs. American etc. You never know, figured this was a good place to ask.
