We bought new jackets.
It appears that the armor has sorta disintegrated in this seven-year-old Joe Rocket jacket. They replied to my email query with "this is common on older riding gear", and recommended that I replace the jacket.
So yes, we bought new jackets. Meh, the zippers were getting testy, anyway.

For Christmas to myself I replaced my very favorite first motorcycle jacket from decades ago, which my wife has worn since we got married, with a nearly new (and larger…) identical brand jacket. I’ve been watching for one for at least a decade.

My SoCal gloves gave out, so went to the local Cycle Gear. They had a 3 foot cube of close out, discontinued, etc. gloves. Rummaged around in there and finally found a pair of Sedici "race" gloves just like I paid big bucks for a few years ago, and have held up *really* well. Just my size. White. That's probably why they didn't sell and I don't care what color they are. :smiley: :thumb: Some days you get the bear.

Bought these
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HPLCKA4?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
I strapped them onto my C-bow mounts and they look good. No picture yet.
Cut a piece of 1/8 inch plywood to square up the bottom.
Not as functional or water resistant as my hepco-becker, but hold everything for local riding.

I like the ole school angle zip, Marlon Brando type jackets. I’ve got a 1984 model Schott that I bought new in 84. It still wears great and fits like it did then.

Thanks, Danny. This jacket is a Dallas Leathers by Chrome Specialties, nice leather with all brass hardware. Probably mid 80’s, not certain. I got my old jacket at a pawn shop about 5-6 miles from here a long time ago, back when the pawn shops weren’t all franchised. I know it’s not the armored ATGATT-approved version, but I’m still happy to have it. I love the way old brass looks and it sure feels good to wear.
it’s all waxed up and ready to ride, whenever the clouds et all finally clear. Someday…

The Cycle World dyno says 17.7 horsepower. Your bike is modified, and so I make it to be at least 20 horsepower. Be should be especially careful of whiplash....

Bought this last night, it was delivered today. Yanmar YM1401 with Bush Hog front end loader. I've wanted a small tractor with loader for years and this came up for sale local and at a very reasonable price. No motorcycles were sacrificed to buy it, sold my Mercedes instead. :grin:

I bought a real nice hollow punch sharpening tool on line recently, came in the mail Friday,
https://madeonjupiterleatherlab.com/products/punch-sharpener
(https://i.postimg.cc/7ZjMzwNh/Jupitor.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/zySgZm6Y)
I put the sharpener in my lathe chuck and sharpened all my hollow punches, flipped the sharpener around and did the outside of the punch circumference, punching gasket paper is a breeze now.
It works great!
