Santa really came through with the goods this year ...

The CB gets some new suspension and I got a new pair of boots (for the other bike).

Now all I hope for is that Mrs Flyer doesn't find this stuff until it looks old and well used Blush

New "Speed and Strength" padded riding jeans, and a wind breaker coat that fits in the little bag and can be stored under my seat. I can wear it under my Joe Rocket mesh jacket in case I do have a liner with me.

Those are great things to get. Let me know how you like the jeans.

RE: Speed and Strength “Dog of War” riding pants.
https://www.cyclegear.com/gear/speed-and...-war-pants

I have been wearing these paints all morning, very comfortable without the knee armor installed. Actually with the knee armor installed, these pants are much more comfortable than my First Gear mesh pants.

I like the knee and waist stretch panels which makes it easier to get my leg over my CB’s saddle, an area I need all the help I can get.

I also like the cargo pants packets.

Keep in mind that I do not have much riding gear experience for comparing products. Before my accident last spring, my idea for riding gear constisted of jeans, lace-up work boots, and (at least) a Wilson leather coat. But after Good Samaritans help me get my CB off my leg and foot (tangled-up boot lace, parts of the bike caught in my ripped jeans), I have been gearing up for safety since!

Dear old Santa bought me a copy of the Australia Motorcycle Atlas and 200 top rides— https://shop.hemamaps.com/10000029-97819...top-rides. Very generous and much appreciated.

All small but useful stuff: Motul chain cleaner, Tyrox chain wax, and Plexu$ plastic cleaner and polish.

I may do better on my birthday in early May: engine guards, rear rack, and saddlebag brackets are on my wish list.
