Pilot 22.5, Mid 65 , Mains 147.5, Mixture screw 3.5 turns out

Even if the voices aren't real they have some good ideas.

Nice.

I've crash tested Icon gear and they have my personal  :thumb:

I can't say i care too much for most of their jackets looks wise (I got mine on sale LOL) but protection wise they are awesome.
Rich, RIP.

I'm hoping I'll never have to find out...  But, that's part of why I got a leather...  I only have a textile right now...   :dunno_white:

I'm also hoping it won't be quite as susceptible to HOT and COLD as mine is...  I know leather isn't all that cool, but neither is my BLACK textile jacket. :cookoo:

The yellow lightening bolts look cool.

it has kind of a retro look... i like it alot do they come in diff colors???  :thumb:

Mandres

I like it too, very cool style. 

RVertigo

Yeah...  They have the retro ones and the neo ones...  The different colors are different designs...

Check it:  Retro:  http://www.newenough.com/icon_retro_daytona_jacket_page.htm

You can get more pics on Icon's site, but it's slow to load...

And...  You can get about $100-$150 less than retail from sandhills_powersports on ebay...  I got my wife's jacket from them...  They're pretty cool.  (Look for a "Best Offer" auction).

there all pretty bad a$$ but i like the yellow one with the bolts the best and the price isnt bad  :thumb:

RVertigo

I got it for $315 shipped...  Which is more than I wanted to spend...  But, I can't be too upset, since the damn thing usually costs $450. :o

Nydus666

damn $450 but if it will save your life its well worth it

RVertigo

I wouldn't have ordered it at $450.  :o  My limit was $300 and I'm already over...   :oops:

CirclesCenter says they crash well...  CE armor...  1.1-1.2mm leather...

I'd say about 5x as protective as my current jacket...  It has a Denier of 400 or something... :icon_confused:  But, it's waterproof.  :thumb:

Totally...  The guy REALLY has to move it...  He dropped the price from $2500 to $1200.   :o

I've been trying to figure out where-the-hell I could keep it...   :icon_confused:
