Johnsons Leathers on Polk St. in SF. Great leather tailors - they do alot of work on motorcycle gear. I've only used them once to sew in a back protector to a dainese jacket, but they do tons of custom work and alterations. I have only heard great testimonials.

J. Lindo at Zooni Leathers (http://www.jlindoleatherwear.com/indexi.html) can do the work for you. Very experienced and knows what he's doing.

yeah the jacket looks very fine, been wearing that with my regular leather overpants or the new first gear pants( but can't zip it togather) . I am 6'4" and 210lbs so i got the 58 Euro. I really wanted a 2pc suit for long trips and the GTS looked classic.
