What riding gear do you use?
I got some kevlar jeans with knee protection, riding boots, richa leather jacket with protection for shoulders, elbows. Also use level 3 back protection, gloves and a Simpson carbon fibre modular helmet.

Any pros/cons of buying a leather riding suit?

I have a Fieldsheer armored leather jacket and armored pants. I have several fully lined and armored Cortech/Tourmaster jackets for cold and medium weather and one pair of lined overpants for really cold weather. For summer riding I wear an armored Joe Rocket ballistic double mesh jacket and Levis. Under the jeans I wear MotoX style hard shell knee and shin protectors. I wear mesh gloves in summer and gauntlet style gloves when its cooler. I also have Tourmaster heated gloves for really cold riding. As always, leather m/c boots. My helmets are Scorpion and Shoei, full face, not modular.

Can't beat leathers for cold weather, high speed riding.
Fieldsheer
Of course, in Southern California, not too often - the cold, I mean.
If it weren't for the busa, I'd look like a poser wearing leathers
In love with the Shoei RF SR and the A-Star SMX-1's
And a pair of regular jeans, the older the better

Remember that jeans shred like tissue on pavement. MotoX hard shell knee and shin protectors are quite inexpensive around $20 and fit nicely under jeans. If you ever hit the pavement, impact protection is what you want.
