DrEvil3264 Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Well i just got back from iron pony looking for some riding pants. I found exactly what i wanted but it was in a two piece suit. I just want the pants, i already have a jacket. The size is 44 and color is blue. If neone wants a nice textile jacket for the summer, ill sell it to them separately. But in the mean time im not gonna buy it if no one will buy the jacket. They wouldint sel it separately, just hoping someone wants the jacket but not the pants, thanks guys.

DrEvil3264 Posted April 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 yeah the jacket is blue also http://www.mineolamoto.com/eshopprod_cat_1051-3749_product_88388.RAZOR_2_PIECE_SUIT_.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragknee66 Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Youre better off with a good leather coat instead. Those textile pants could tear/melt in a crash easily as well. Youde never catch me dragging a knee wearing textile pants with knee pucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragknee66 Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Nah, just the alpinestar track pants for 300. Do you already have a nice leather jacket? Trust me dude, after being down myself 1 time, textile does NOT hold up well at all. I melted the elbow rite off that green coat of mine. I will post pics if I still have them. Besides you shouldnt be worrying about knee pucks on the street! crazy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragknee66 Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Ya here ya go. Textile jacket at 30mph or so.

dragknee66 Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 I was fine actually.. I just had a TINY little rug burn type thing on my elbow heh. Little skin buffed off. Thats why Im a gear Nazi I dont enjoy seeing people doing dumb things without gear.. stunting.. speeding.. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little skin buffed off. Sounds like the textile jacket did its job then. graemlins/thumb.gif It's not supposed to be re-usable like leather often can be. The main purpose of the outer shell (as I understand it) is to hold the armor in and help slide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragknee66 Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 To a point yes. But at any higher of a speed, I might have been S.O.L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazinjr Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Originally posted by 04636Ninja: The size is 44 and color is blue. What size would the 44 be close to? Large, Xlarge or xx Large The different jackets I looked at were sized that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrEvil3264 Posted May 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 it would be like a large, im pretty sure...., im 6 ft 4, weigh 185 lbs and it fits me perfect to give u an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinHawk1647545499 Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 heck when i went down in deals gap last year, i got road rash through my leather. the leather didnt even wear through and that was only at about 30mph too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owndjoo Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 a 44 would be quite small actually. if it's euro sizing, which i know Rocket suits are, then there's no way a 6'4" guy could wear that. i'm 6'2" and a 52 is about as small as i can go. ofcourse that's more to do with torso and leg lengths. But a 44 is smaller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrEvil3264 Posted May 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 well i tried on the pants, they fit perfectly, didnt try the jacket though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
