Default Vanson Vent Max 3 Mesh Jacket

Vanson Vent Max 3 Mesh Jacket

Put this jacket on layaway last Saturday at MotoLiberty. I am really impressed with the Cordura mesh fabric and the comfortable fit despite the armor. Usually, I feel like a Power Ranger when I put on an armored jacket

Anyone else have one? What is it like when you're riding in the heat?

I've worn one since April. Works great in the heat.

Heat still sux, Humidity still sux. It's (now) August in South Florida for gosh sakes - the assfault capital of the world.

But once in motion it's just fine.

I haven't - ahem - tested it yet if you know what I mean.

Wish it had a poket though.

I have a simular jacket by Joe Rocket (who also makes the HD mesh jacket) and find that it is comfortable in warm weather but all get hot sitting in traffic. Bugs simply bounce off vs stinging which is nice. Clench the wrist openings although.

It's a Vanson, what did you expect? Out of all my racing suits, leather jackets, mesh, perforated and full leather, my Vanson is the best.

Good choice.

And this is all I have to say about that....

Get 'Em From The Peanut Man (Hot Nuts) (Version 1)

by probably Georgia White
recording of July 16 1935
from , copyright notice

Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, anybody here want to buy my nuts?
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, I've got nuts for sale
One for five, two for ten,
If you buy 'em once, you'll buy 'em again
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, you buy 'em from the peanut man

Nuts, hot nuts, anybody here want to buy my nuts?
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, I've got nuts for sale
You tell me your nuts is mighty fine,
But I bet your nuts isn't hot as mine
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, you buy 'em from the peanut man

Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, anybody here want to buy my nuts?
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, I've got nuts for sale
You tell me that man's nuts is mighty small,
Best to have small nuts than have no nuts at all;
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, you buy 'em from the peanut man

(spoken: Hot nuts? Peanuts! Nutsies? Nuts!)

Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, anybody here want to buy some nuts?
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, I've got nuts for sale
You see that man all dressed in brown,
He's got the hottest nuts in town
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, you buy 'em from the peanut man

Nuts, hot nuts, anybody here want to buy my nuts?
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, I've got nuts for sale
When a hog gets hungry, he begins to grunt,
When a man gets hungry, he begins to hunt,
For nuts, hot nuts, you buy 'em from the peanut man

Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, I've got nuts for sale
Now they tell me your nuts is mighty small,
Best to have small nuts than have no nuts at all;
Sellin' nuts, hot nuts, you buy 'em from the peanut man

Only five cents, boys!
Nice and brown, too!
Everyone's crazy 'bout my nuts!)

You buy 'em from the peanut man!
