I lost 54 pounds since January, so I'm swimming in my gear. Current model Olympia AST Jacket, Hi-Vis yellow, excellent shape and only hand washed (twice) with powdered Ivory soap and line-dried to maintain the waterproof membrane's integrity. It could use a wash again and I'll do that before I ship it, or you can do it. Comes with nice zip-in insulated liner that is also a casual jacket in itself. Size XXL $165.00 shipped anywhere in the lower 48. First Gear Hypertex Overpants with temperfoam hip and knee protection. These have been crashed in and repaired. they also lost their waterproofness (they sucked anyway when new). Still good beater pants for hacking around in the brush, and I'm currently wearing them on my daily commute. Size XXL $35.00 shipped anywhere in the lower 48. Add $15 and I'll include the Marsee CE-approved knee armor that I added to them. Thanks, Mark

Oooops... I miss-typed the price on the jacket. I meant $185.00 shipped. Mark

WOW! Losing 54 lbs is like adding 6-7 HP to the KLR. How can you possibly handle all that extra power! Good on you! Hats Off. Cudo's. revmaaatin.

Fuel starvation comes to mind-- and A bike that dies after you roll off the throttle is often indicative of tight valves. = need to have the valves clnc reset to a larger clearance. How long has it been since your last valve lash check? revmaaatin.
