New Cortech armored jean jacket with zip-out liner and Icon Pursuit gloves.
$25 And $40, respectively!

Any tips on breaking in/stretching leather gloves? They're a touch snug (but if I went to 2xl the pinky finger flops around like a beaver's tail) and I've been wearing them to bed to stretch them out

Nice. do you have the Flatty that goes under them?

They are going on an 8BA that is being set up to look like an earlier flathead. That will then get bolted to a 1938 trans and go into a 1931 Model A chassis with a 1927 Model T roadster body. It's pretty early in the project but most of the major parts are in hand at this point.
 
Sourced a kick start CB250N engine, some father/son teardown and learning this winter and maybe it'll end up in place of the CD175 engine by spring.

I'm looking forward to seeing this!

Network storage and gpu upgrades. Everything at home and in my shop depends on pc's and the network. My big storage is at least ten years old. It's time for something more serious. This helps that and snaps up my CAD/CAM operations to boot.

You'll love those. Ive got 2 seasons on a set on my cx 500 and their still going strong
Good to know man. First set I've put on anything. They have good reviews and were a tick less than $100 to my door step. Figured they were worth a try

Kiley's got them on half his bikes too and many other folks here use them. They have great bang for the buck for sure. I run the 230's on the GL and those are great too, but I tend to only get 1 season on that bike due to miles.

Yeah Kiley is the one that recommended him to me in the first place. I was going to go with Avon Road Riders just because I like them so much, but for the sizes I needed they were over double the price.

The best price I seem to get is either Motorcycle superstore or bikebandit. although last time I got them from fort9 in Canada as the exchange was too high to get them stateside.

Mine was just from chaparral motorsports on ebay. The rear was the same price.
