I ain't even mad, underseat exhaust is like heated seats in a luxo Euro while I'm making my way to the front of the lights.

Leigh and I were actually discussing the other night how hot riding gear can get...I don't even use my jacket's winter lining.

true dat.. I've got my winter vest insert thingy in my closet.. hasn't had to come out yet

Birds/Lee, you got leather jackets?

If so, perforated or not?

If perforated, do you get cold riding in cooler weather, or does a hoodie underneath do the job?

If not perforated, how hot does it get riding on a warm day?

Yeah I've got an alpinestar one I think it was close to 500 bucks from memory.. got it kinda as a package with bike.

It is perforated and also has a little vest thing which you can unzip out of the jacket, I keep mine out and don't get cold. And on a warm day only time you really notice it being a little warm is sitting at lights but I just unzip it a little bit / wear singlet underneath if its really hot. I'd say go something similar to what I've got it's quite a good setup with a few options.

edit: when I say its perforated i mean on the inside lining, not the outside leather

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
