Well, firstly Fox, We don't all have fancy pants cameras and roommates with pretty bikes and all kinds of beautiful scenery. And we all can't offer enriching, valuable motorcycle content to this site with our extensive knowledge of HID's and soforth. So why don't you cut me a little slack, lest I go take some dramatic pictures of my roommates Hyundai Accent with the bumper torn off. So that means everybody will just have to settle for my mediocrity.

Pace, as far as I know these jackets aren't made anymore. I don't know when Lucky Strike stopped sponsoring a race team but, if my wiki-foo serves me right, Lucky Strikes ceased to be a North American brand as of 2006. So I really don't think there's much to advertise or take kickbacks for.

Kudos to those who get the homestarrunner.net reference. I feel even more among my own kind.

Yes, that is my current bike, except the upper fairing is completely white instead of spray-bombed black and there isn't a big dent in the gas tank.
lol............fancy pants camera. (I'm using that now.)

Great jacket though, how much did it set you back.

I like it and it's not something everyone is going to have at bike night.

In my collegiate poverty, I was fortunate enough to find this jacket on my local craigslist and bought it for $200. The guy I bought it from said he paid $350 for it and he had gotten it shortly before he decided he needed a different Ducati that was a different color. So yeah, its just about broke in and feels pretty nice. This is replacing my A* textile jacket. I'll probably still wear the A* when it gets extremely hot during the summer, but otherwise I'll prefer the leather for its more protective qualities.

Already have a bottle of Meguiars leather cleaner. I like the Joe Rocket jacket too. Something just B. A. about a leather jacket.
