dyeclan - please check the materials tag on your Shift Torque jeans... there's been reports that the lined material in Shift jeans is actually a mixture that only contains 5% kevlar. Other forum users have said the jeans blow on impact and provides almost no resistance. Just tryin' to look out for ya so you don't develop a false sense of security - something to check.

SpyderGirl - so is that Alpinestars armor-thing a substitute for a riding jacket? The mesh material won't fall apart in a crash (thereby rendering the armor useless since it won't stay in place)? if so, that looks awesome and i may pick one up as well
