I collected the XJR1300 last Saturday and haven't stopped grinning since .

Now my 9 year old daughter wants to come out on it, so I'm looking for advice on where I can get leathers/helmet/goves/boots etc. for a child, (ideally somewhere in the south east).

Cheers.

Thanks for the info.

I did a search for the Baby Biker place and found two or three others as well.

I get the feeling we may be paying them a visit over the weekend.

By the way, have any of you tried the 'love-handle' belt thingy with kids on the back of a bike? They look as though they may be easier for a child to hold on to, rather than trying to get their arms round the rider.

where abouts are you?


We're in Ashford, between Staines/Heathrow Airport. If you've got one you don't use any more, I'd happily give you a few quid for it.
