Default Great Price on New GF Gear

Well, I got a new girlfriend and "unfortunately" she is a lot taller than my last gf (5'3"-5'11"). So it's a gear shopping we go! I stumbled onto this deal at New Enough and thought that I would share.

A leather Joe Rocket leather jacket for $139 ?!?!?!? Holy shit! After MUCH debate, we ended up with the textile jacket for $55. My girlfriend is definitely a "squid" type. If it were left up to her she'd wear short shorts and a tank top on the bike.

Speaking of Team Jordan, did you notice Michael was in the paddock with Ben Spies? I wonder if he in contemplating switching to Yamaha for his team. The R1 is doing pretty well in AMA. Not as good as Mladin or Hayden but better than the Jordan Suzuki guys.

I did notice that... I doubt that Jordan would jump ship considering that he's been with Suzuki since day one. Of course you never know. Besides, I think that statement is a little unfair considering that the Yamaha success is pretty recent and depended on failures on the part of Mlladin, May and Yates.

The podium has been dominated by Suzuki this year and frankly, every year for about a decade! You'd have to be nuts to change at this point unless these AMA retards decide to allow Yamaha/other teams to add 500cc to try and make it "more fair" for the other teams.

Jordan stuff is so awesome I love it so much. I think it looks great and I totally don't understand how someone could have a different point of view on the look of gear. That's a sweet ass deal for a leather jacket.

Is the Jordan stuff just big patches? I could always get it taken off the back.

Is it subtle when everything within 10 feet of your bike or on your bike must be decked out in Jordan gear?

Okay, now I got her a helmet... personally, I found a "girly" Shark helmet for $100 but she likes this one better... Scorpion EXO-400 for $59! Plus I fould it at Motorcycle Superstore for $49 if you gf has a rather large nugget( x-large and XXL-large only)... New Enough matched their price anyway and gave me free shipping because my first order had already gone out the door from this morning!!!
