Can anyone identify this jacket?
« on: September 06, 2007, 09:34:53 AM »
So an older friend who had this in highschool and got it from his older brother is making me a deal on this jacket. I am just looking for info. I can't seem to find any on this "internet". I figure some of the more experienced riders here might have a clue. Looks a bit like a Langlitz. Tag says PETERS. that's it aside from the road race motorcycle pic above it. He had it in the early seventies and it was around a while before that. Thanks for any info if anyone has any.

On an aside, anyone here going to the Bonneville vintage GP this weekend?

I've got a similar "Mars Leathers" motorcycle jacket that I bought new in 1980 hanging up in my closet, it's a standard style of the period. Sadly I've outgrown it, so if you send me a gallon of JD RM, it's yours! ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"
