New gear

Jetbdude · 11-18-2007, 01:58 PM

Well, it's not really a review since I did not have the chance of trying everything for real, but I've played tourist trophy last night and I'm pleased

I had to get new leather and helmet after my crash. I got all new gear while down in the US. Teknic Xcelerator suit, SIDI boots and new shoei helmet. Can't wait to try it out on the track!

Looking fast, buddy. Now all you need is a bike...

Hammer · 11-18-2007, 02:19 PM

Looks too clean, go roll in a mud puddle and break it in.

CBRVFR · 11-18-2007, 02:22 PM

No, you don't want to "try it out".. that's why you had to get new stuff in the first place. Looks pretty snazzy, though.

I've got some used knee sliders I could sell you to make you look like you can drag a knee...

And what about the "other" leathers.?

Really looking forward to get a bike!!!! Can't wait, even though I'm not going to ride for a while (stupid winter) I really miss having a bike

I'll take the belt sander out later

And I really don't know what you're talking about, what other leather

NorthernRR · 11-18-2007, 03:03 PM

You know the pics that you showed me of you in your new pink coat... and your socks. You should REALLY post it up.

Depo is giving me a hard time as it is, I'm not posting that picture

From now on you'll be known as ORCA. The killer fast Canadian.

You're gonna have to sooner or later.

You may as well get it over with.

ConqSoft · 11-18-2007, 04:48 PM

Is that a new style suit? Has a hump on the back AND the front.

Heavy-Dee · 11-18-2007, 04:49 PM

Now send it to Alexa at Spyder Leather Works for some bling.

SheepOfBlue · 11-18-2007, 06:45 PM

Did it improve your times in tourist trophy? Oh and I just got back from riding despite the frozen temps of winter being here.

phobe · 11-18-2007, 09:40 PM

You look like a phag.

Last time I got a pretty new suit I promptly broke my shoulder blade the first time I rode in it. But that hardly ever happens, so I'm sure you'll be fine.

Shenders1 · 11-19-2007, 01:42 PM

Those are some fine looking duds. As H-D suggested, you should send 'em out to get 'JBD' plastered across the back in gold chrome.

I didn't realize you'd whacked your helmet

.

With no petrol-bike to provide an excuse, you better be logging some miles on that Cannondale in the background.

Jetbdude · 11-19-2007, 02:08 PM

Yeah, whacked pretty much everything. The jacket was not that bad but it was too big for me, I bought it for street use with tick clothe underneath. I think that if the fit had been better my elbow would be in better shape. The new suit feels much better.

I went down at Calabogie.....

The-Undertaker · 11-19-2007, 02:38 PM

Looks sharp

CBR929RE · 11-19-2007, 04:06 PM

nice suit. looks like really good fit too.

Have you put on a few pounds?

I think that you should put on about 45 and that would signifigantly even out the playing field.
