Haha, armour, what was that, a couple of plastic kneecaps. Knee sliders consisted of multiple layers of duct tape. Notice the dinky little gloves, leather only, no knuckle protection.

Spondon Engineering, Derbyshire, still in existence, make custom motorcycle frames. The name comes from the village where it is located. My bike was a Yamaha engine in one of their frames, similar geometry to the stock item but much lighter and stronger. http://www.spondonengineering.co.uk/
