Cheap jackets/pants at Action Motorcycles (Canberra)

If you're on the lookout for some extra pillion gear,
ActionMotorcycles in Canberra (and probably everywhere else) has some
stuff on sale this week.

They're "Joe Rocket Razor", Jackets and pants in sizes 40-42-44-46-52,
$99 for jackets and $49 for pants. They're summer-weight stuff, and
available in any colour you like so long as it's black. It has an all-
the-way-around zip for joining the jacket to the pants.

I managed to find a couple of links about them, the quality seems OK
but not spectacular (but probably still better than draggin' jeans in
a crash):

I'm 180cm(5'11")/ 80kg, and the size 44 jacket was a good fit. Size 46
pants were a bit too snug of a fit over my trousers, but would
probably be OK if going commando.

They still had plenty of all sizes today, if your local Action store
hasn't got any and you really have your heart set on some then let me
know and I'll see what I can do.

Only $160? Crikey, I thought it was a bit more special of a special
than that! Still, good value for the price.

The only pricing I could find on the net said that they were charging
US$399 for the suit when it was first produced in 2003...
