Need feedback on this jacket!!
 Im in the market for a new jacket and i came across this one. It is the scorpion ExoWear stinger. It is perf. leather and i have heard a lot of people like it. The jacket retails for $370 but they have it in the black/red (like the one in the pic) and the black/blue colors on sale on sportbiketrackgear.com for $163. It is an amazing deal but im not so excited about the black/red color. I want to get your guys opinion on the color combo before i make my decision. I ride a 05 gsxr 600 that is red and black if you didn't know. Here is a link to the website so you can check it out a little better if you want ... Scorpion ExoWear Stinger Perforated Leather Jacket from SportbikeTrackGear.com

I like it, but are you only going to own red bikes for the rest of your life? Im always afraid to buy expensive stuff that wouldnt look good with a lot of different colors since i know ill own several ones over the years for sure.

Go for it, the jacket looks sick. And if you get a different color bike anytime soon, I doubt you'll have any trouble moving the jacket to help fund a new one.

You know I've never understood the whole all black leathers thing. Seems to me the more color the better. To me it helps you stand out to drivers. My first set of leathers were all red. Jarv owns them now and he has a yellow bike.
However, I do like the jacket. If it doesn't fit sportbiketrackgear is very easy to deal with. Just call them up tell them you want to exchange it. They are very friendly and work hard to make you happy. I've never had any problems with them and I bought all my gear through them and had to exchange a few things for different sizes.
