I wanted black as well, but had to settle for the silver/black. I figure I can paint/dye it if the color bugs me too much. I'm not sure if they still have any left, but I'm 5'8, 145lbs and the small fits me fine. I got my wife, 5'4ish an XS and it fit her. I tried hers on and probably could've fit that size as well if I wanted, and she could've possibly fit one size smaller, so they definitely run small, but I think the motorcycle crowd also tends to run large. I've had issues in the past of finding stuff that actually fits. Ooh, I ordered the jackets on a sunday, and they showed up at my house on Tuesday as well, not bad for $6 shipping.

I still shed a tear when I remember that my old Triumph vented raptor jacket sold on ebay for only $35. That was the nicest mesh jacket I've ever seen, and unlike other companies gear, it only had a subtle embroidered "T" on the back, it didn't have the companies logo plastered all over it in bright colors, so I could've kept that jacket for life no matter what bike I had.

Oh, and yes, all the pads are removable. They're not great, but they're not awful either, I don't know if they're CE. I just tried it on and hung it up in the closet, but I can always just stick my winter jacket pads in it when summer comes.
