To me, riding a Pani is a bit like a one night stand with a girl who is out of my league....

Self control is the key to a repeat !

Are those the inner boots?

I've heard really good things about Kangaroo skin suits, especially that they're very light.

And they are durable

Yeah, they're the Axial Pro In boots (these boots and suit are way better than my riding justifies, but I like them anyway). Very comfortable. And I can use them even if I don't wear the full suit (i.e. with textile pants or even jeans). I just ordered the super speed textile jacket that some of the other guys have been talking about on another thread here in the gear section, and the drake air textile pants (the old style without the flaps over the vents). The boots should work fine with that combo also, for really hot, less aggressive riding days.

The Kangaroo skin suit is pretty damn nice. It's my first set of leathers, so I can't compare them directly to cowhide while riding. But I can tell you on the hanger it felt pounds (or in your world, kilos) lighter than the regular leather. Of course there's a premium to pay, to the tune a couple/few hundred bucks. It's fully perforated, and I wear this light underwear suit underneath. It was about 90 F here today, and the heat was no problem. Highly recommended.
Both the boots and the leathers (it's the Dainese Trickster Evo suit).

To an extent, I suppose, otherwise defeats the purpose....

FFS....I don't understand it when people ride around on a 30,000 and can't afford a few hundred bucks for some gear.

By the way my foot would have been ripped right off my ankle had I not been wearing proper boots.

I totally appreciate your concern, Frosty, and I share it too.
However that particular day I had taken the bike to work, and was on my way back from getting my 600 mi. service. (See the temp plates?). No way I wanted to sit around at the dealership in full leathers for a couple hours
I knew what I was in, and rode likewise.
