Default New Gear

So it was someones B.O.D. today, and I got some new gear. Nothing really great, just better than what I am currently using. I am very thankful for every little bit of protection I can get.

Some DC moto street boots. Kinda bulky, but good for the street.




Some Olympia gloves with Kevlar in them. I wanted some hard knucklers, but these are fine.



Shot of the gloves with my helmet. Helmet is not new though.

Hey I have a pair of those gloves!!!

I found em in the street one day. They were tucked inside a helmet that smelt like cigarettes and cheeze whiz.

They are not my size so I keep em for the occasional passenger.

The length from my peg to my shift lever is a tad longer than supersports. They work fine for my bike, but I tried the boots out on my buddies 636, and I could barely get them under the lever. They'll make due until I upgrade to a better bike.

Awesome, did you find the wad of $100 bills I lost inside too?

Seriously that was a crappy day, I lost teh helmet, gloves, an ipod, and aq gps all in one stupid mistake. I took a call after I had gotten off my bike and was getting in the truck, put the helmet with all my stuff tucked in it on the bed cover and got in the truck and drove off. I got home and tore my truck and garage up looking for the helmet. I actually think that it just rolled across the street and some local kid picked it up and decided he liked my stuff
