odd looking things arent they S1000RRs ? ,I had a good look at the Gen4 and it didnt float my boat except the the dash which is awesome.
The big but is though the problems owners are having with build quality is absolutely shocking they seem to just fall to bits ,very un Germanic

Had my Oxford riding jeans on Tuesday. Since worn them twice for commuting.

These have come a long way, they feel like a quality pair of normal jeans ( quite thick) but single layer and perfect for some of my work places. I'm hard to please when moving away from leather but these are good.

I do fancy a pair.

I don't know much but apparently some new tech out that is much better and I think it gets rid of a liner underneath the denim.

Are you Oxford ones this type of tech? I assume they are from what you say. I do like real world opinons so interested in yours and which specific Jean you have.

Yes the strength is in the weave rather than a separate liner.

They are AA rated for safety and come with knee and hip armour.

Wow they seem incredibly cheap and a bargain (y) Do you go for the same size as regular jeans or go a bit longer in the leg to compensate for the riding position?

Cheers Duke (y)

I went for my normal size. Plenty of length in the leg I found.

Carpro PERL
3x Autoglym Spray Bottles
Lilly Pet Hair Removal Brush - I've seen videos of this thing used and it's incredible! Seems expensive at £14 for a piece of rubber but some professional detailers say it's the most valuable tool they have.

Main tap/valve for my mains water supply, spent sometime yesterday digging around in the front garden trying to find, mains tap as this will all need to be off when I replace the valve in the house.
