Suzi Perry designs BKS motorcycle riding gear

BBC MotoGP presenter Suzi Perry is set to design a range of ladies motorcycle riding kit for leathers manufacturer BKS, as part of a push by the firm to promote British-made clothing.

Suzi Perry is due to focus on producing fashionable and practical kit for female riders. The riding gear is due to be distributed by the Frank Thomas Group, which recently bought BKS, later in 2008.

BKS is best known for sponsoring MotoGP rider James Toseland, and the firm plans to include his feedback in the design of all its future riding kit.
