BMW does an Aerostich copy!

[Deleted Member I]

Anybody see this at the NEC? I didn't

CoverAll suit
An innovative new suit for BMW Motorrad, the CoverAll combines simplicity of use and safety in a light, one-piece suit. The suit is tailored for a wide fit, enabling the motorcyclist to wear the suit over existing clothing, for example, a business suit. Easily adjustable, the suit has full length zips on the front and on both legs making it quick and easy to get into and out of.
• The suit is made from a 3-layer laminate consisting of Condura® 500, climate membrane and liner with taped seams and waterproofed zips, all of which ensure that the suit remains waterproof, windproof, UV resistant and breathable. In addition, there is a waterproof inside pocket to keep valuables protected.
• The suit contains built-in light SC protectors, while a retrofittable back protector is also available. The suit features 3M reflective prints to ensure high visibility.

No mention that is is a knock off

being available to try on in the uk would be a very big advantage over the aerostich IMO.

Not to mention the all important (for some ) MBW logo

Yes I saw it at the NEC, didn't look as nice as the 'Stich, seemed priced OK to discourage people from shopping for the original.

But also like Stich they are a bit cock when it comes to meeting the needs of the sump'ler GS'er

It looked like Black only as well

I had a look at it at the show- much lighter construction than the Aerostich except the zips which were pretty chunky- didn't look like waterproof zips but the bloke on the stand claimed they were.. He also reconed the suit would be around the £475 mark when available end of February.
I think their blurb sums it up - You can wear an office suit underneath it...(so buy one of our other suits if your going any distance)

It will be interesting to see a production one but doubt I'd be tempted.

-I don't work in an office



(much)

not fussed about the logo, no really but the 2 year warranty would be nice.

cheaper: good

black: sounds good.

didn't look as nice: worrying as the original has something of a "home made" look about it

the real problem is, i don't need one

It'll be perfect for ya cos in seven years I've known you to be an office jockey who always wears a two piece from Burtons every day to the office

So that's one sold then

What's that got to do with buying toys

... when available end of February.

Why do BMW do this? Last November I couldn't find the gloves I wanted for the winter (oddly enough) because they were running stocks down for the new range in February!!
