vintage riding gear

[aeronca]

im getting ready to start a board track racer replica using an old bicycle and a 2 stroke engine. so as im cruising through the bike forum i came across this thread http://motorbicycling.com/f38/vintage-b ... 11507.html i find it kind of neat to see some of this old motorcycle gear, so here's the question to all of you, is there a place that has vintage replica/real  "britt" ridding gear??? 8)

You mean for a bike like this!

Just got this registered last week, now I have to wait for the ice to disappear and a number plate to turn up!
