Nice fit!
On my bucket-list as well ...
Very early PikeBrothers jacket had problems with the knittings. I ordered a B10 and the elasticity of the knitting around the stomach was actually not existent.
The jacket was returned without any hassle (customer service ++++) so no problem at all.
1962 OG-107 pants
i own them since 2013 and they still hold up very nice
they got some interesting character during the time with nice fading
fabric is sturdy but not stiff and doesn't shrink in the washer (no tumbling / no dryer for sure)
they also have a version in MITCHELL-camo which is...
PIKE BROTHERS BiBs - i like the cut and the quality of both fabric and hardware ...
Back when i bought them about 10 yrs ago they still have been available in lenght 36 which is no longer the case
Highly recommended and worth every penny
@MrProper the jacket looks good to me - i like the 37J1 model in particular because it is pretty comfy in summer-evenings. The cut 'n shape looks authentic kind of even though PIKE BROTHERS is not that famous for doing accurate reproductions but "look alikes" with a lill' tweak here in there to...
At some point i owned 7 motorcycles at once. 3 of them where registered - the other 4 have just been sitting in my workshop to be moved once in a while.

1968 THE MARTIN LANE G1 in size 46 - came fully patched and is one of the highlights of my G1 collection
- pants are FILSON double knees
- boots are REDWING Spirit Lake
- waistcoat is CAPT SANTORS (Italy)
I'm not that into the actual regulations.
I have some patched G1 in my collection and from what i see is most guys did obviously not 100% stick to standards ...
Having that in mind i would either follow the recommendation of @BernieH or loosely place 'em as it would match your preference
Same here:
i like them G1 jackets over the A2s because of the pleated back ...
I own 2 IMPERIALS which are both cow - much thicker and much more "noisy" than the ones made in goat
Good luck with the sale!
I would not give any thought about an issue like yours.
Yeah it is true there is specific styles especially meant to be used for motorcycling, but what makes a leather-jacket practical for use on a motorbike for me is the protection against the weather and - in case of a crash - protection...
I'd vote for the A2:
- i work in the automotive industry since 40 yrs and wear an A2 no matter for meetings with my managers or hangin' on the shopfloor and discuss with the blue-collar people or engineers. The only difference is the accessories but it works fine all the way
