White and black two tone is difficult to achieve but this is clearly a success!

WOW. The second one, two tone cross zip black/brown is the BOMB.

That's a RMNZ.

..But sadly the collar shape ( lapels ) are awful. Too Japanese fantasy appearing for me.

I'd love to know if that was an original option back in the day. The only B/W two tones I've seen as original vintage were 70s jackets, Perfecto-style; they were a popular enough option on the London punk scene where leathers were often rather more decorated than was common in the CBGBs crowd. Perhaps unsurprising, given how many UK punks sought out second hand Lewises and ended up wearing old rocker jackets. As memory serves, Bernie Rhodes, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard_Rhodes was well steeped in youth culture including the rocker scene, and it was him who turned members of the Clash (Simonon, if I recall correctly, came from a motorcycling family and had a strong affiliation with the rockers already) and the SexPistols to Lewis Leathers, which in turn made them totemic for a lot of UK punks.

I'd totally wear that black and white one, though I think preferably without the BRMC logo. I do have an old Perfecto copy with it on it that I've used as a costume piece in the past, but I'm wary of wearing it out of context. I don't think I live in Outlaw territory (the Outlaws MC originally copied their skull 'n' pistons logo, now somewhat changed, from the film), but I'd hate for a genuine MC to think I was playing fancy dress colours.

Poor guy has been trying to sell that for close to 3 years....he did knock $300 off since last I saw it. Slow and steady wins the race

No kidding? Hmm, it is way too small for me but perhaps a low-ball offer would get it done? Or is he married to his idea of the "worth" of the jacket? Three years is hella long time.

Harley Davidson one? Real McCoy. That one's from... Uh, some years ago. Don't know the details actually but yeah, it's RMC.

Ya. Just saw one on ebay for 3k USD. Sweet, but not that sweet.

Losing half the purchase price, likely more is a hard square pill to swallow!

I would have sold it for the $850 he'll be lucky to get.
I mean it's white AND it's a small size...
