as long as my gear matches i'm good.

can't really knock on a guy for wearing mis-matched color helmet, jacket, and gloves when most of the squids around here don't even wear any gear at all.

Not anymore....I still rock my Red / black shoei that matched the F4i, even though the gixxer is blue / black. My jacket is black, and gray though.

My gear matches my bike, but only because I got a good deal on it.

My next bike will be black or silver so I don't really care.

I think matching gear sometimes looks ridiculous. I see a dood around here on a blue R1 with a bright blue Yamaha jacket on with a blue helmet and blue gloves. Atleast he doesn't have blue shoes.

I apologize if I offended anyone.

my gear matches itself, my bikes are usually black or white so it generally matches.

seeing guys in all team green on a team green bike is a little much though

lol i had those exact same gloves down to the color

those gloves were fantastic for about a month and a half until they tore on me. I cant even imagine what would have happened if i crashed in them.

Now its phantoms all the time no exceptions. These things hold up like no other and take some serious abuse.

Hmmm...I have been thinking of picking up the Violator gloves to go with the suit, since the SP2's don't match any of my gear or my bike, lol.
