[01F4izzy]

im selling my Shift Avenger SS textile riding jacket. last year when i bought it it was a $260 jacket. asking $150 ive only put maybe 100-150 miles if that on it.

[01F4izzy]

oh yea and to add its never been down.

[Nickels]

[01F4izzy]

[jaceface]

[01F4izzy]

[jaceface]

does it have any padding/protection in the elbows and shoulders?

[jaceface]

plus let me know sometime when i can come check it out to see if it fits

[95gsx]

its a nice jacket i wore it once or twice when i rode.

[01F4izzy]

yes jace it has padding on the elbows and shoulders. and a little on the back also. if it fit me well it would be very comfortable. due to the shift i work it will be difficult for you to check it out, maybe sometime if we go riding i will bring it or something.

[jaceface]

just let me know..... 560-8310

[01F4izzy]

alright

[jaceface]

how tall are you and how much you weigh?

[01F4izzy]

5'7 or 5'8 idk, and bout 150 its to big for me tho.

[Nickels]

Jace is like 6'3 and 90 lbs..

[01F4izzy]

it actually might fit him...

[jaceface]

im 6'2 and 190. but..... i went and got a jacket from omaha today.....

[01F4izzy]

thats cool i might not sell it now, i want one when i start learning how to stunt, i think i will either keep this one or sell it and get a different one that fits me good. maybe the A* T-stunt 2 jacket i like that one alot

[Nickels]

I think ima go to scm and get the shift jacket i like there. But i need a medium, i think. anywho, i want a jacket to ride with in the summer, leather probably isnt the greatest idea huh?

[triumph955i]

might get a little warm Nickels, especially if you are riding in town and you are sitting in traffic. Some leather jackets though have some vents that help keep you cool. I would go for textile for a summer jacket though.

[01F4izzy]

even in textile you will get a little warm, but not as bad as leather

[Nickels]

I guess after a while i will probably stop wearing a jacket.. But for now since i have only been fully riding since october, with my experience and seeing my brother with road rash all over his body, i wanna wear a jacket. lol

[triumph955i]

road rash blows. You can still get shit like road rash wearing jeans and a jacket though. Jackets and jeans just reduce the amount you will get.

[01F4izzy]

when i crashed i was wearing a hoodie, jeans and skate shoes. the hoodie has holes in it and my arm had some rash on it, but my legs were pretty much un touched, but the jeans are tore up. and my shoes actually stayed on! ive herd that most of the time skate shoes fall off when you crash i guess i just got lucky! the funny thing is that at my house i had something to protect my body (jacket) and my bike (frame sliders) but i didnt have either of them on. lol

[jaceface]

i had my jacket on but was just wearing jeans, got rash all over my knees, its left them pretty fucked up......

[01F4izzy]

yea i guess i had just a little on one of my knees but nothin too special.

[jaceface]

yea, knees suck..... if i sit with my legs bent for awhile when i walk it kills my knees... if i walk for awhile my knees will start to kill.... its pretty much the gayest thing ever

[Nickels]

My brother lost both his shoes, and one sock. was wearing shorts and a t shirt and went sliding across the interstate at 70 mph on his back.. his clothes were destroyed and had to be cut off.

[triumph955i]

yea, knees suck..... if i sit with my legs bent for awhile when i walk it kills my knees... if i walk for awhile my knees will start to kill.... its pretty much the gayest thing ever

damn i got that too. When I went down last time I banged up my knees pretty good. Thats what mine was from.

[01F4izzy]

we should start some clubs. the people who have crashed club (badasses) and the people who are gonna crash club. i dont know what to call them lol

[triumph955i]

Future badasses?

[01F4izzy]

haha i suppose that would work. people always say im a bad rider because i have crashed and they havent. i just tell them to fuck off because im more badass. lol

[triumph955i]

or just tell um they are too much of a puss to push their bike to the limit. I mean sometimes crashes are because of inexperience and stupidity, but other times its not always your fault. Just like car accidents they are not always your fault. Sometimes a dumb fuck causes it. Example: my crash. :lol:

[01F4izzy]

haha, ya... i dont like the people who think that they are never gonna crash.

[triumph955i]

haha I know. Then I usually hear back a month or so later, that they crashed and are selling the bike cause of it. :lol:

[01F4izzy]

yep, thats usually how it goes.

[Nickels]

Thank god, i havent crashed yet.

[triumph955i]

You can always hope you wont crash. But realistically I would hope for a low speed crash, so not much damage to you or the bike.

[01F4izzy]

werd. mine was at a decent speed but it wasnt unbelievably fast...

[Nickels]

Yea, i just hope mine wont be anything like my brothers, or at least till after i get my license..

[triumph955i]

Mine was going prob 40-50mph. But after a couple weeks the knees healed up cept for the aches sometimes. But its all good

[Nickels]

My mom freaks out everytime she sees me ride, or hears about me riding. She hates the fact i have a bike, and like ride and race.

[triumph955i]

yea my mom was pissed at my dad when he got me my first dirt bike at 14. But I think she has eventually gotten used to it.

[Nickels]

I got my first bike at age 21.. last october, lol. So its still new to her. But she also kinda freaks out sometimes when i drive.. ive been driving for like 7 years now. I have no wrecks, but she just knows that someday i will wreck and it will be a really bad accident, lol.

[triumph955i]

haha yea mothers will always worry. My mom gets mad when i got 2 over the speed limit.

[Nickels]

lol, my dad says theres no point to even go the speed limit.. might as well go 5 under everywhere you go, lol

[triumph955i]

haha then I feel like a granny driving.

[01F4izzy]

haha i told my mom that i was gonna get a sportbike, and that im set on getting it, and i already had one picked out. the next thing we talked about was insurance. lol she was pretty cool about it actually

[95gsx]

i never told my mom and one day i walked in and was like
"I'm selling my jeep"
and she says. "I see, so where do you keep your bike"

stupid insurance papers.

[Nickels]

^ ownd!

The first time i lost my license, I had to get everything on my own. so currently my parents dont help me with anything, so everything is entirely in my name.. easier to hide things, lol. Although i tell my mom everything..

[95gsx]

oh its all in my name but she did my laundry that day for some reason (fate i guess) and oops...

[Nickels]

oh, OWNED AGAIN!!

Glad i live on my own, with my own washer and dryer, lol.
