Although the publicity shots of the 'Race to Dakar' team shows them all in the new Rallye 2 suits, in reality Charley wore one of the blue versions of the suit, whilst Si and Matt sported well-worn grey versions of the Rallye 1 suit.

Why was this? I asked Si in Morocco and he said he was unhappy with the amount of black on the suit and feared they would be too hot in the sun.

I saw the new blue suit at the NEC and thought it looked great. I'll possibly buy one when funds allow unless Dianese brings out something like it in blue too.
 
I fancy the black one myself, but a good point over the colour, then again will it ever get that hot in the UK :D
 
Here's a clear pic if that's any help :)

Smeggy - have you seen the new Gator jacket from Dainese? Bit pricy @ £340.00 mind
 
Nope, havn't seen that one yet. However, with the Rally2 jacket being in the region of £400, £340 seems a bargin. :D
 
i'm sorry but why when it comes to buying bike clothes people have a style by-pass?

Bmw Rallye suits look shite, shite, shite

They may be practical but they look like Shite.. and so do a lot of the other jackets too :D that Dainese jacket is a bit off too :confused:

Company's must just get a plain jacket and hand it to a kid along with a set of crayons and say... start colouring

Worse still people then go out and buy them :D

now thats a nice bit of kit :thumb the old one i mean not the new :ymca one.
The old one is subtle not garish.. only problem is there isn't too many other jackets that nice.. so you end up with a lot of people with the same outfit.

but Kev you can accessorise yours with that Pink Feather Boa that you love so much :)
