Toseland's new leathers. (http://www.crash.net/motorsport/motogp/news/158578-0/toseland's_new_leathers.html)

Friday, 11th January 2008

Reigning double World Superbike champion James Toseland will wear British-made BKS leathers during his rookie 2008 MotoGP season with Yamaha Tech 3.

"They call the new BKS leathers the Saville Row suit of MotoGP and I'm proud to be representing a British manufacturer in the world championship," said Toseland. "I want to stand alongside Valentino Rossi at the [upcoming] Sepang test and for him to ask me who made such fantastic leathers." :hung :lol

Toseland has so far appeared in red and white during winter testing with the satellite Yamaha team, but the colours and design could presumably change by the time the season starts - particularly if Tech 3 secures a title sponsor.

Toseland previously raced with Arlen Ness leathers.

BKS are incredable leathers & gloves, its too bad they're not sold in the US, they are top notch kit, David Jeffries wore them and a host of other BSB riders :bow
