Toseland's new leathers.

"They call the new BKS leathers the Saville Row suit of MotoGP and I'm proud to be representing a British manufacturer in the world championship," said Toseland. "I want to stand alongside Valentino Rossi at the [upcoming] Sepang test and for him to ask me who made such fantastic leathers."

Toseland has so far appeared in red and white during winter testing with the satellite Yamaha team, but the colours and design could presumably change by the time the season starts - particularly if Tech 3 secures a title sponsor.

Toseland previously raced with Arlen Ness leathers.
