White jackets look like **** after a few thousand mile. Bugs will destroy the color and only so much can be cleaned out at the cleaners. I also learned the hard way.

Meh, spray it with that gor-tex proofing stuff they make for shoes / hats. Put a few layers on. Will do wonders.

I had a white Icon Timax II textile jacket. looked almost as good as the day I bought it the day I sold it. About two years later.

White is tougher to keep clean obviously, but just don't let any bugs / smudge sit on it you'll be fine.

congrats bud.

im like 5'4'' and about 125-130 and i couldnt find anything for the longest time. the chest sizes and arm sizes were off alot on some of the smalls. but i managed. i wanted a suit but the only thing ive found that fits is like $2,000 for a dainese suit and im not spending that kind of cash on it.
