I just put a down payment on a 2002 silver and black One. And I am so excited about it. The dealer said that it won't be in until March or April. I am waiting, however, in the process I am driving my wife insane.
I am not going to make any mods until I see the bike in person but I do want a new jacket. Vanson seems like a good company? What do you guys think?

Oh I don't know about jackets but the Joe Rocket ones are nice.

And WELCOME aboard matey! :hellobye
Glad to see another R1 bro being born (pre-maturely though hehehehe).

Guys.. where can I find the Joe Racket alone to order? Can I later on buy a pair of pants that will fit the Joe Rocket jacket?

 

[[email protected]@alltimes]

Swedie, u mean u wanna buy the Joe Rocket jacket first, then b able 2 buy the pants that connect 2 it right, I think that's what u want, well lemme know when u find it cuz everywhere i go they sell it 2gether....

 

[Swedie]

Exactly what I mean [email protected]@alltimes.

I have a Joe Rocket Phoenix jacket. The mesh one with the armor. Its great when its really hot out. I have friends with Joe Rocket leathers and they really like them. I bought a Vanson two years ago and I think that they are the best made. Heavy and built to take multiple falls. Heirloom quality. Dainese are great too. The trick to buying leathers is the same as with helmets. Buy one that you will wear.

Oh man! I found this jacket:

That is the BEST match I could probably possible get to my custom painted R1.

Anyone here got $449.99 extra this month that you can send my way?

I bought this jacket for non track use...I live in a warmer place than you guys do, so LeatherTex jackets work here! This model came out about two years ago, but they are still so awesome in fit and finish.

Got Hein Gericke more serious riding

I just ordered a Joe Rocket Blaster jacket from www.imotorcyclestore.com for $265.00 plus shipping. They have a decent selection and rock bottom prices on a lot of stuff.

Kobe leathers are the lastest and greatest I hear. You can get a full set for $800 (US). I was at Daytona and they were selling them like mad.
