Toseland to wear BKS in MotoGP

Two-time WSB Champion James Toseland has signed to wear British-made BKS leathers in MotoGP this year.

BKS has been bought by Frank Thomas and was relaunched today, with Toseland carrying the torch for the new company.

These are the world’s first pictures of Toseland’s new leather suit which he’ll be wearing in MotoGP this year. The suit has been designed by BKS founder Brian Sansom in collaboration with Toseland.

Toseland said: “I’m delighted to be carrying the flag for Britain in MotoGP and I’m really happy to be wearing BKS leathers. I’ve been testing and developing them for the past 14 months and they are the best-fitting race suit I’ve ever worn.”

Replica suits will be available for sale from May.
