I Ride: Aprilia Tuono 07; KLX 300R 07
The photo was taken in England, London probably.
Having the freedom to mix and match without being categorized is a trait associated with free thinking which is what we (most of us at least) would like to be a part of - I think.
There is lot to be learned of our friends from across the pond
You like your leathers, you're into the retro look badges and the skull face gives you the internal giggles. Open face helmet makes it easy to have a quick smoke or sandwich on the go and doing it on a GS makes lots of sense as it is considered by many as the perfect tool (and is great in handling these greasy, wet and cluttered roads the capital throws on its riders).
Let's all mix and match as we please, and change the look the day after when we feel different.

Love and peace (and human understanding).
