Got me a New Jacket

[BigBSBusa]

Posted a few days ago about a FirstGear Rocker Leather jacket wondering if anyone knew anything about them. Well, KS-Waterbug was the only person that replied, but it was enough to convince me to go ahead. I have a couple of FirstGear mesh jackets already that I am happy with but hadn't really seen their leather stuff. Anyway, I'm glad I bought it and can't wait to try it on when I get back. Don't think I need anymore jackets since I have the casual (FirstGear Rocker), sport (AGV Suzuki Hayabusa) and a mesh (FirstGear Mesh-Tex2) jackets. Boots and pants are next to complete the ensemble. Oh yeah, I got it from <a href="http://www.motorcyclecloseouts.com">MotorcycleCloseouts<a> for $206 TYD (regular price is about $370). NewEnough had the same jacket, but not in my size and I would have had to pay Texas sales tax. Here's the jacket for those that haven't seen it.

Thanks, DJ. I should be back in just a couple months now. It will definitely be nice to be back home. KS gave the link first and I'm glad he did. NewEnough may have a better deal on armor for the jacket, but I bought it from M/C Closeout again because of the tax.

Nice jacket.

I bought a couple new jackets myself this week,a Joe Rocket Mercury and a Teknic Lightning,  $169 and $125 from New Enough. Both of these are over $300 jackets. I got both in black.

Hey are the gloves you were looking for close-outs?
They are not listed in the '05 AGV catalog??

Not as far as I know, Ted. I have seen them at other dealerships. All I know is that it is a Suzuki specific item and only available through a dealer. Thanks for checking.

Sounds like you got a couple great deals! If I didn't already have a racing-type jacket I might have tried the Tecknic.
