That makes two of us, I'm looking for a new rainsuit as well. I would prefer a 2-piece. Any suggestions? Devon -- "It's a troublesome world, all the people who are in it, are troubled with troubles almost every minute" Dr. Seuss

I'm pretty happy with my First Gear rainsuit, but it will leak in the neck in a heavy storm, that's when I'll wear my paddle jacket under it. However, I don't like the absence of body armor with the rain suit. For warm weather, I wear a paddle jacket under my Phoenix jacket. Eventually, I want to get a paddle pants and Phoenix pants combo for the bottom half. Mark

Neighbor kid, 18 years old. Typical youngster. Plays boom boom music too loud, especially when try'n to impress someone. Not always respectful to his parents but always respectful to me and most adults. Had a CR125 dirt bike for a while but sold it when he got near car driving age. Guy I know is trying to get rid of (junk out) an old toyota camry, Neighbor kid also has a camry so I mentioned it to him and he wanted to take a look at it. I say, well grab a bike and we'll ride over there. I clear it with 'es mother first. She knows I'm a safety weinner so agrees. I loan him the KLR650. We ride back roads over to look at the toyota. By the time we get there he is drooling motorcycle, not the least bit interested in the toyota. Wants to know what he can get for his toyota and thinking down payment on a bike..... We talk about different options and he is really chomp'n at the bit. I offer to see what I can do. He wanted to trade me a pool table for a bike. (nice pool table if anyone is interested) A bunch of us are headed to WNF this weekend to do some trail riding and I offered to take him with us. I'm loaning the KLR250 this time. So I think he is officially hooked. If someone knows of a good deal on a beater dual sport in the Ohio area, I might be interested. Especially if you'd consider a trade for an antique pool table.
