      Mechanic's ofcourse. Simple maintenance stuff on the bike...but more on the car.
      Opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one. And most of them are full of shit.

          I thought it looked familiar! Even the description was JR specs!

          He was referring to the same ForceField armor.

            Had I known this earlier, I would've avoided. Now everyone'll start calling me a fanboy

            What's your take on it? It seems to be quite VFM especially with those ABS packs

                Finally bought DSG Maze Black & Cramster saddle bags SUPER HAPPY!!

                If any of the Delhi guys are interested, then you can contact Rajeev 9810168402, Meandering India, D4/B Masoodpur, Near harijan Basti, opposite Sec B, Pocket 8, Vasant Kunj. He has some good range at his store & very friendly. I guess it's a boon for South Delhi people.

                    Hey RG, I've been using the Powertrip VTX jacket for about 6-7 months now. Pretty good jacket. Nice protectors as well. I'm not using the mesh one, I use the regular one. I've had a crash while wearing it as well and nothing much happened to it, the product is good.
                    A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                      • Fox brand is pretty good and reputable, I imagine these are fakes though, email fox the link and ask if it's genuine, they will respond quickly, I don't mind placing a wager on this, maybe?
                        Beware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!
                        More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread eaters !
                        Statistics show that more than 75 % of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread !
                        Bread is known to be extremely addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water, actually begged for bread after just two days !
                        Bread has been proven to kill. Scientists have now uncovered alarming evidence that 100% of the people who eat bread will eventually die !

                          Tks Amit The problem with MC is that, these guys need US CC without which these guys are not willing to do the business. These guys won't budge even for an international CC or Paypal attached to international CC.

                            Hows the mesh? is it really airy? My jacket is quite warm even without the liner. Can't wear it in summers without sweating like a pig. It's good that you got a mesh jacket if you're intending it for summer use.

                            • ^^^ Yes this will become a primary Jacket for everyday use no matter Summer or Winter as I'm tired of washing my other Jacket. This one should be simple ; simply remove the protection & put in washing machine
