  1. It gets to a point where comfort and airflow equal no real protection and just ends up adding to shit I have to scrub out of your wounds. Not knocking mesh, I still wear one when I ride street. I wear Icon though. Yes I know it adds to the price and you're paying for the name to a point but Icons come with CE back, elbow, forearm and chest protection. I currently have the Merc 3

    Had Merc and Merc 2, went down stupid hard in the Merc 2, it shredded as you would expect mesh to but the CE guards stayed on and did their job. I wear that with Icon riding pants over EVS knee pads and Astar boots when I'm on street. Walked away with no road rash, that's not going to happen with many mesh jackets.

  2. Blue book is nice I guess but, just like cars, it's never accurate. Anything is only worth what someone will pay. That being said, what Dale and I do as well as most any other FFL that buys guns does is look each up on Armslist, Gunbroker and one other local site of your choosing, which ever site is appropriate to the gun. Then average the 3 prices.

    Armslist gets you the going asking price, Gunbroker gets you the final selling price. Gets you real prices that people are actually paying, not what a book suggests one might pay.

  3. Fail regularly? I've had them on every fuel injected bike I've ever had, most everyone I ride with has. I'm with Brian regularly who tunes them daily. I've yet to hear of one fail let alone regularly. PC problems are with the programmer. If you say forget it and ride then you've never had a properly tuned one. Put it on and have Brian tune it, night and day difference.

  4. Say no to the Two Bros slip on. Nothing but noise. They provide no added benefit what so ever and are loud as shit. Get a quality unit, theirs is not. Proven time and time again on the dyno
