Default Shwing! new gear.

I picked up a new jacket and helmet this week, Bought the jacket from a shop ( it was actually the same price as online) but I had to order my helmet after trying one on in the shop, they only had matt black though and it was 60 bucks cheaper from helmetcity.com The helmet is a shoei rf-1000 and the jacket is a joe rocket.

yeh, it has pretty stiff foam in the shoulders and elbows as well as covering the entire back, the fabric is pretty sturdy as well.

I got a great deal on a black Joe R 3.0 leather jacket. Love it. See it at dealer/stores for 299-320. I got it for 179.00 no shipping. I will try to find the site and its worth a look.
