Both of those combinations look awesome!!
I prefer the white helmet with the blue & the silver helmet with the pink
I think I like the mariner blue better than the powder blue with the St. Tropez, nice contrast.

Hey Ryder, can you match me up a nice leather jacket/glove combo for a Gothic (gray and black) Honda Metro?

What colors are you considering?
I like lighter colors for visibility; but what colors do you prefer?

Wow! This is like some of the cooking shows... 'yeah, this is what I have in my cupboard...' and these chefs come up with something fantastic...
OK, dear Ryder, I am fashion inept. My scooter is the SYMHD200 in blue and my helmet is a Shoei Flutter (blue).
..........
....
I need a new jacket. The Olympia is a fine jacket - but it is black! I want something stunning - bright - eye catching! The corazzo white with red stripe (very patriotic)? A Lime green? pink with vanilla stripe? What ch'a think? Help!

The new corazzo "orange" is more vibrant, but I don't have a photo of just the jacket.
Note: photo below with the actual "new orange" Corazzo 5.0
Sorry the orange jacket below will not get any larger,and the olive green will not shrink.

Silver helmet with marine blue corazzo 5.0 compared with The pastel blue/stone Corazzo 5.0. The pastel blue is difficult to capture the true color in the photo. The blue of the St Tropez is also difficult to capture the true color.

There is also a FirstGear Allure mesh jacket that is also good for riding in rain. Someone on the forum has one.

The Orange helmet in previous post is a Shoei; find the brand helmet that fits your size head (I wear HJC..seems to fit alot of people).
The helmet below is a Scorpion $170
http://www.newenough.com/helmets_eyewea ... elmet.html
Orange mesh jacket from Bike Emporioum (have not ordered from them)
The Dr Martens are a popular boot (Classic)

Scorpion (ballsitic nylon-tuff stuff) jacket and HJC Eve (purple)helmet.
Dr Marten Classic boot
..................  ...
............  .....
You could always add a GIVI 370 White top lid topcase to your scooter.
...........
Other GIVI 370 "various colors" top lid also available at the link.
Scorpion Nip & Tuck purple & white jacket
Motorcycle Superstore $150.00
http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/ ... acket.aspx
A NOTE on this jacket, it does not state CE approved armor...so not sure it is or not. But if you like the jacket and it fits well, then order CE armor separtely and switch out the armor. (I LOVE this purple combo--another color we don't see too often so should be eye catching). It's a Mesh jacket with an inside wind liner so might not be warm enough for 45 degree weather unless you wear a light fleece under it. Or you may not live where the weather gets cold.
There's always the size to consider because jackets are cut so differently. If you want a snug fit so you are comfy, yet the jacket won't ride up on your back if you were to take fall. You can order two jackets exactly the same and one might be a cut a little bigger or a little smaller and could fit differently.
Purple/White helmet is HJC Eve $170.99 @
http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/ ... elmet.aspx
Special Pricing at New Enough $140.00 (Don't snooze on this price)

Dr Martens Classic Boot 1460 Purple $120.00
