drats.... SOLD OUT!
well, I got all Summer to find another deal. Maybe even get a chance to take a short trip to try some on for size first.
Did you check Motorcycle Superstore? They are having massive sales right now!
yeah, I looked everywhere. Lot's of places had "them" just not in my size....
Hoping to find a shop that actually carries more than one or two brands so I can try them on for fit.
So, at $115 and what I think is 1 size larger than I want (room to grow)... I ordered the Stinger today from New enough.
I got a chance to try on the Scorpion Burnout Textile and the LG was still a bit tight in the shoulders and gut and the XL was good (not loose at all, just right), so if they are true size across Textile to Leathers... I think I'll be fine. If not, gotta love the no hassle return policy and then I'll know for sure what size I need.
Damn, you're making out like I did when I first got my bike. A friend of mine worked in the industry and used to get all kinds of stuff free. He hooked me up with my Shift textile jacket, Joe Rocket mesh jacket, Alpinestars One-O-One boots, Held Phantom gloves, Komodo Dragon gloves, all for $50 and some equipment we use for RC car racing that I had (that I didn't pay for since I got it from my sponsors) and he needed. Isn't free stuff just that much cooler than stuff you paid for? :thumbup:
I have the stinger and i am happy with it. It is heavy leather and the armor stay in the right places as I move. (I am 5'9" ~155 avg build got size M) It is especially comfortable now that it is broken in. There are two extra pockets that a lot of the descriptions dont mention on the interior. It is warm with the liner and good for warm days with out it. The perforation in the leather does a great job of vinting it out.
Well, to answer your question kevcoop... check with dtrey.... he has it, or, wait until Thursday and mine will be here. Now, mine, it's a hit/miss, I ordered an XL, think I need a LG according to there size guide, but when trying on some textiles, LG was too tight, leather=want it tighter, it'll break in, but dang it was unbreathable tight.
If you decide to go full textile, motorcycle superstore has the S&S twist of fate, or other mesh jackets for $99... I love mine, but I was looking for leather for the cooler days.
Just keep in mind... that "waterproof" liner... is, well, waterproof.... anytime I use it, I have sweat build-up around my elbows like crazy....
I'm going to put it to rest and going to sew my frogtog into a "pull-over" rain jacket.... not even 6 months and the frogtog jacket zipper is hideous.
edit... my waterproof liner is getting put to rest, not the jacket!
Wife likes the way it looks (don't ask why this is important unless you've met my wife) , but I do love the way it feels.
so dart, do you think that the jacket has enough air flow to be comfortable in hot weather (90+)?
And what is the weight of the jacket? Is it to heavy to wear off the bike?
Thanks...
