You have to turn faster. You're eyes won't focus that quickly any more.

If I turn to fast I'll get dizzy, fall and I'll land where my butt use to be :'(

Even though I am still sick, I went on a ride today with the Phoenix Motorcycle Riders Group. I figured I could be sick at home or sick on the ride, either way I'm still sick. I decided to try out my new Powertrip Mojave mesh jacket I received the other day. Temps were in the high 70's (when I left home at 06:45) to around 105 (the ride back home). It seems to vent really well, and the only place that became excessively hot was under the spine pad. Even during the hottest parts of the ride, I can't say I was uncomfortably hot wearing the jacket. I'm happy with it.

Hi
I've been keeping an eye on this posting and thought that when the day came that I bought a "warm weather jacket" I'd drop a link to what I found. Well that day is here.
I just purchased the "B100 Bohn SuperMoto Air Armored Shirt" from

http://www.actionstation.com/catalog...cts.php?cat=18

I can just throw a shirt or light jacket over it IF I WANT. OR ride with just the armored shirt. {not likely though} It can also go under my leather jacket or rain jacket of course. Check out the site and have a look. The company, Bohn , suggested either the "crusader" or "SuperMoto Air" armored shirt. and at $185.00 all in with expedited shipping, I thought it was a reasonable price. On-line orders also offered knee guards free and incl. if the buyer wants them. Looking fwd. to hearing what others have to say about these products. I'm also thinking about the Kevlar jeans from another site.
I've had the misfortune of being hit and knocked down by a deer a few yrs. ago and thought I owed it to myself to try and protect myself without sweating to death. I should get it in a few days and will let everyone know how it is.

I picked up a silver Joe Rocket Phoenix 4.0 from Heater_Guy here this afternoon in a parking lot for $50. I'm real happy. Now I have some kind of protection.

Be sure you watch out for those guys selling high-end stereo speakers out of vans in parking lots, though. Those aren't such a good deal.
