It finally showed up yesterday and it was worth the wait. Well built, YKK main zippers, nice warm zip out lining, and the day glo yellow is nice and bright. I put my electric jacket on since it was 24 degrees this morning. Only thing now I need are the hippomuffs to show up. Even with heated grips my tips of my fingers still freeze.


Now you would think that in this bright ass jacket I could be seen but nope. For the first time in months a mini van pulled out and over right into me. The sun may have been in her eyes but if she had concentrated a bit harder on driving she would have seen me.

The suit is from Teiz Motorsports Online Store (http://www.teizms.com/) and was $319. These are not my pics but the same suit. I took the knee pucks off and put the patches on it they send with it.

Nice suit. Wish I had one like that when I drove though a snow storm - long time ago.
What is with Mini Vans? Almost all drive like they are pissed off that they have to drive one. Never seen one class of cars with so many idiots behind the wheel. They race, speed and drive like they want to get rid of the van before somebody sees them driving it.

The CE armor in it his hardly noticeable too. For warmer weather it has all kinds of vents for airflow too.

Nice :yay: I've felt invisible sing I had to give up the fluorescent yellow mesh jacket for the winter

Just ordered a pair of First Gear TGP cold weather gloves (http://www.newenough.com/gloves/insulated_and_or_waterproof/first_gear/tpg_cold_weather_motorcycle_gloves.html).
Insulation on the backs, not on the palms for use with the heated grips.

UPS has had them for "internal activity" in LA since the 15 th :ohwell:

I looked at those and may still get them. Im getting some hippo hands (http://www.hippohands.com/Hippo%20Hands.htm) hopefully for Christmas. If I need more warmth then I will give them a try.

A guy unfortunatly got to test the suit low side at 40mph. He was fine except for a few bruises. Glad I have this suit.
