And younger people will probably take even more chances..theyd rather ride the bike they want without gear, than to ride something they dont want with full gear.

I have the perf version of that jacket and it comes in a size 38 minimum. I'm barely a size 36 and I would say it's pushing the limit. My GMX motion jacket fits better than the 824/826. I heard Rev'it and might have some stuff could fit with you, I'd check.
