I'm still itching to pull the pin on a Belstaff Trialmaster but can't quite muster the courage to drop $500 on one yet.

I got mine (60's jacket) in excellent condition for $300 shipped. Of course, I'm a small guy, so I get lucky when it comes to vintage jackets.

I love mine but was only $65 new circa 1967.

Mine was 5 quid IIRC back in 70, used but it was seriously the best bike jacket I ever owned.

Picked this up on ebay for $50usd Had the HONDA patch sewn on. The rest of the patches were on it. And as an added bonus it matches my bucket.

Heres my oldy & newy........... The old one is beat to hell, its survived 2 laydowns.... And yes thats a Woody patch.. (she's gonna live in the closet now :() An yes I painted Betty Page as Shiva on the back circa 1997... She's has served me well......

But I love when a friend kicks you down his old stuff (thank you Randy Huwett of British & American in Doraville GA)... Not bad for a 10 plus yr old jacket...... NOW it needs patches...... (looking to get my DTT patch soon)

The paint on this one is awesome that is some real talent there.

Fits really well and love the colors
 
I'm not a black leather kind of guy. Here's my old leather.... It's a Kawasaki Z-1 jacket. I wanna say its '79. Ive only found one other for sale in the 15 years I've had since I've purchased it at the thrift store for $17.00.

I'm the same- love the old distressed brown jackets, and that one is awesome... I'll give you $18 for it!

Thanks Wahoo, but I think i'll pass on your offer ..... for now :)
 
Ok, so I said I'm not a black leather kind of guy, but look at what I just scored at the local goodwill as I was trolling around killing time. I found an old cafe racer like leather "Californian" by California sportswear. I think its 50-60's as the label shows. At least that what I think. Before I bought it I picked it up and put it down before I decided to purchase it. I mean 19.99 is hard to part with sometimes ;)
I attached some pics, could you guys help me figure out the era of production? Thanks

That jacket was a score, definitely 60s. Worth considerably more than what you paid.
 
If I lived a little closer to Chicago this might be a problem. Picked it up at the Barber swap meet a while back.
