Rothmans racing gear

Sat Jun 07, 2008 3:48 pm » Post: #1 » Download Post

Hi again,

I'm now building my -90 MC21 to Luca Cadalora replica, based on this picture


I got this on ebay for 25$ ^^ Rothmans colors, not the same as Cadalora, but still in rothmans colors.


The seller still have this AGV in rothmans

Admin edit: eBay link removed. No eBay links outside of the eBay thread in Classifieds please. (No commercial eBay links without joining the Supporting Vendors system.)

So, is 1-piece racing leather suit in rothmans colors impossible to find? I've only found rothmans jacket, but nothing like I could use at race track. Anyone knows similar colored suit, so I could custom make the patches to it? The suit in the picture looks like a dainese?

Thanks!

Think you'll be looking for Nankai or Kushuitani for the proper race suits.



I once went to a place in Bristol which was cram full of Nankai seconds, in all the proper GP colours.

Sadly I couldn't afford one at the time!

Was looking in google images looking for a pic to use as a avatar to use on this forum and found these pics......Thought it might help you.


Honda has made some wicked looking 250 GP bikes over the years, Although i must admit i like the look of the 90's bikes the best

Fast Freddie's 1985 is a replica of my MC16! Laughing

Every time I see a picture of it though, I think I have to go on a quest for a set of NS400 rims and VF1000R rear to make some wheels for it! I do like my white 6-spokes though.

Great choice Xamor, Luca Cadalora & NSR250 Rothmans - Iconic Cool
Are you going to give your bike Green coloured number plates?

I have the later version Cadalora Rep Arai Helmet

But I'm thinking about getting a plain white Arai and having it sprayed in the original Cadalora colour scheme, as in your pic. Retro cool.
Good luck on finding some Rothmans leathers.

It can be done! I found a set of Nankai Gardner Leathers, just like the ones in the pic (sorry not for sale). Just keep looking, a set came up on ebay from Japan about 3 months ago, went for 1400.00 US!

Dave, Nankai seems to be just what I'm looking for. That was helpful, thanks!

Rob, the second bike is lovely. Very nice picture from the bike itself. Thanks for the url.

RichG, I will give it green number plates, but not the number 3 on them.

In Finland, 250 class has very different skilled riders so with NSR it would be possible to place somewhere in the middle. Thought the placement is not mainthing, NSR is so much fun to ride at track!

E: Oh yeah and I have already found 2 Nankai Rothmans suits, both sold already Sad Other one was in US and sold to highest offer and other one was in Spain and was sold for 400euros! It was only 2 weeks old ad.

A guy is now working with the paintjob and I need a very high resolution picture of the -91 Luca Cadalora bike. Anyone knows good one?

Thanks
