Not sure who made it...perhaps it came across on the Mayflower. There is a strong possibilty this outstanding garment was made by Michio Suzuki himself on his loom in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka , Japan in 1903. (before Suzuki turned to making motorcycles in 1953) Suzuki was of course a forward thinker.
Irregardless of all that, this fine piece of history is being offered up here today.It's got style and class,but most importantly of all...functionality. Actually,it's just plain cool.Its thick and heavy and has some "not seen so much anymore" features. Check out the cooling vents on top of the shoulders. Today's modern racer wouldn't have such a thing.Too much wind drag.
Anyway,check it,like it,own it. You'd be responsible for shipping,I normally would cover that but can't right now.
It's a piece of GSXR history.

WOW...you are so right. What a match.

It just makes sense. (but if another member really want's it...bribes can always be sent by way of PM)

Definition of irregardless


nonstandard

: regardless I told them that irregardless of what you read in books, they's some members of the theatrical profession that occasionally visits the place where they sleep.— Ring Lardner

Is irregardless a word?: Usage Guide
Irregardless was popularized in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its increasingly widespread spoken use called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that "there is no such word." There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.

Beats me, I only googled the Webster's dictionary for "irregardless" even spellcheck doesn't recognise it but it's in Webster's….

I've used it before in a sentence while talking to people...it sounds better when spoken then when written.
