Looks awesome! Can't wait for the fit pics. I am surprised it came out shorter than expected after the cloth mock up. Hope it rocks on the bike!
Well overall it is 1/2 inch longer in the body, but I was thinking a little off like 1 inch flattening the low back panel and not totally flat. Back is 23.5. Glad I added the 1/2 inch. On the bike I dont think I would want the front any longer and the back to be level with the front must need to be 23.5 where it is.
I am real pleased with the fit. Short body, long sleeves, great range of motion for the bike. Leather is great 3.5 oz cow. Looking forward to the trip. I wish my aero chips had this range of motion. May need to add some shoulder gussets... wore light levi 501 so u can see the length better than my usual black jeans

Perfect. This jacket should be nice and comfortable for the road. Enjoy the ride.
Thanks man. Curious on your aero chips when you reach forward does it pinch at the front upper arm and shoulders pop up?

I’ve yet to ride in it, but will do so this weekend. It now has a strong, 2-way zip.
That said, the answer is yes. The shoulders pinch up right before the seam with the arm. I wouldn’t go for a long ride in it, but I like to wear all my jackets on rides to fast-track break-in.
Feels real good. Pants probably pulled up and higher than would normally fall

It will. JL is spot on. How’s the Road Glide treating you? I sometimes miss my 10 speaker multi-amp monster sound system. It used to piss off many a neighbor lol.

So far, So good. I have the stock stereo and it is super loud. I couldn't imagine what your system sounded like. Must have been crazy awesome. I'm hoping to get a stage 2 sometime soon(within a year). Kickin around a ride to Cali next year and catchin a sunset on the Pacific. I might have to start working more O.T. lol.

Yeah man, definitely worth a run to Cali. One of America’s best rides. Stop off in Denver, it will change you man. Greatest place to ride imo.

If you make the ride JMAX, you are invited to my place down the peninsula for a barbeque. I can show you some nice roads through the Santa Cruz mountains and along the coast south of San Francisco Bay. From there a nice ride down HWY 1 to Ventura and Cal Leathers

Will do, and much appreciated. There is a small chance I end up in San Francisco, depends on the job. If it does, you can expect me to take you up on the invite.
