Hey guys, who has any places to recommend getting leathers modified? im hoping to get a little more room around the knee and the shoulders, is this at all possible?

not impossible but highly unlikely me thinks. For the cost you could be up for you could almost get a new set.

Megan does good work - she did my jacket for me but get a quote as it may just be cheaper for new leathers :)
I don't like the term insane - I prefer mentally hilarious!

You should've talked to him out at the BSFOS on the weekend Pinchy, he was out there.
