Got some river road "distressed" brown ones from the bay of E for 30 bucks. For as much as I have worn them, Sturgis and back, they are worth it. Wouldn't give as much for chaps or jacket as I did my pipes. That's tarded.

I wouldn't buy them because of the $20 shipping even if they were cheap.

Remember guys, the reason they are such a deal is they are used:

NEVER TRIMMED AND ONLY WORN ONCE

Imagine what this idiot would want for them if they were NEW!

I must be missing something too. Although he does have a matching "billings"
vest for $425. So...that's a cool grand for stuff that's worth maybe $300.00 combined!!

What PT Barnum said is correct "There's a sucker born every minute"

Heheheh!

Anybody wanna buy a pair of Jen-U-Wine cow-hide (reeley thik) Azzless chaps? Only been worn since 1994, every ride. Well broken in, look like brand new (this part is true)...never touched the ground..x-cept when rollin' round with the OL at parties. Shipping free, but you must send $1,999.99 and wait fer about a month...or maybe more...b4 I get time to mail them in a plain brown wrapper.
