Jacket question

OK, this is what we bought. We went to our local Kawasaki dealer and I got the K-82026-526 in silver/white and black. It is their mesh sport jacket. I removed the liner and it fits great. It will be better if we take a spill.
Donna got the womans jacket K-82026-355. It too is silver/white and black, but is cut different.
Each jacket is $99.00 too!!!!

Dealer sold them to us for 15% off and was here in 3 days. Nice.

We love them and recommend them for all to consider.
Sorry, I don't know how to put the picture on here. I wanted to. I tried the right click for the 'copy - paste' system, but it didn't work.
Trip, Nico, BlownDodge, how do I add pictures?
See you all on the road.....

Jacket question

Yes thats it, Groundhog!!!!! Thats mine and the wifes is the womans version but no Kawasaki emblems. :(
Comfy, breezy but has the added padding where its needed; shoulders, elbows, and back.
Some said I need to stick with the leather; the mesh will tear in crashes.
I said, if I go down, I replace helmet and gloves and jacket anyway. I don't care if I get one accident out of it. I will gladly replace it if it does it's job just once.

And in no way am I insinuating it is a cheaply made garmet. The wife checked it out and said it seems to be made very well. I like it!

Jacket question

Ok, since cooler/cold weather riding is coming up, I'm dragging out all my leathers. Just a plug for Fox creek leathers if any of you guys are thinking about good American made leathers with a lifetime warranty. They are all well made items and heavy. And no I am not getting any kick backs,lol

Jacket question

Whenever I buy a piece of apparel I check ... http://www.newenough.com/
They used to sell used gear, hence the name, but now it's all new stuff. Check out the closeout section...I got a nice Hein Gericke mesh jacket for $69 and they have the Power Trip Women's San Jose Mesh Jacket on sale now $39.
I've owned 3 leather jackets and currently wear an awesome FirstGear Scout III Leather Jacket for 3 seasons, and my mesh the other times. I also have a Firstgear Textile Jacket thats nice but it's really bulky with the armor and all.
