Brilliant. Now if only that would also solve my unemployment and concomitant lack of funds. :(

SF Bay Area Goons:

I'm selling my Scorpion Commander touring jacket for 160 bucks on CL, but I've had no interest. 150 to a goon, if y'all want a sweet all-weather jacket. I paid 200 a couple months ago, and though it's a totally rad jacket, I have lost weight, and it no longer fits well. Go me, I guess?

The jacket looks like this:


I liked it because the straps at the waist and on the arms mean that it fits better than a lot of textile jackets do, and I imagine it'd slide around less if you took a tumble.

I also have a pair of Alpinestar gauntlet gloves that I'm getting rid of. They were hand-me-downs when I started riding, and since I got new gloves for Christmas, I'd like to pass 'em along again. They're size XL, very similar to the current SP2 glove. These are free to a good home.

Finally, I have a size large Teknic Chicane in blue and white perforated leather. It's got a couple of grimy spots, but it's otherwise in great condition. 75 bucks.

I'm free to meet anywhere in the greater Bay Area, pretty much any time. Unemployment rocks, I guess.

Buy my poo poo!
edit: PM me

What size is the commander jacket, and would you ship it?

It's a size large, and I'd be willing to ship it for a bit more money (enough to cover the shipping -- my time isn't worth much these days).

Anybody looking to unload a jacket? Looking for a L most likely. I've been striking out on CL so I thought I'd come here and see what you fellas had.

I'm trying to unload a Scorpion XDR Commander in size Large, if you're interested.

Hey, sorry, I totally forgot I posted this. I'll take pics tomorrow when the lighting is decent. I'm looking for $150 or so. I only wore it a few times, never in especially inclement weather, so it's basically brand new.

It's a great jacket with a bunch of neat features. The double liner is especially nice when it comes to personal climate control. It's a good, 4-season jacket that just doesn't fit me anymore. To reiterate: I'm looking for $150 shipped to CONUS.

Here are some photos of the jacket, if you'd like the full-size originals I can email them to you.

If other Scorpion gear is an indication, their sizes are more "American" in fit.

It's a slightly trimmer fit than that, I think, mostly because of the side adjusters. I'm 5'10", 180lbs, and pretty trim--I wear a medium jacket/tee shirt and this jacket is a bit too big for me. With the liner in and a hoody under that, it fits all right, but I'd like something a bit snugger.

Wish I could, but I need the money to get started out there, and I'm having a hell of a hard time selling it in the first place. :(

Honestly, its not worth more than about 2k. You might get lucky and find a buyer for more, but gen ones just aren't that desireable in the general market. :(

For reals? I priced it where I did based on what has been popping up on the SFBay craigslist, but with no bites yet, I guess I'll have to drop it quite a bit. I'm bummed, I bought it a year ago for 2800, but I guess it wasn't as good a deal as I thought.

Thanks for the advice, guys. I've painted myself into a corner here: I'm moving on Saturday and need to sell it by then. I only held onto it this long because it's my only mode of transportation. I'll do what I can to wash it today, and I'll repost at 2400. No time or funds to replace the signal, but I can grab a new lever from cycle gear and swap that out today.

edit: push comes to shove, I'll be calling a couple of local dealerships today to see what they can offer for it.

That's a beautiful SV, and I'll be ready to start shopping for my first bike this summer (after June)! I'm also already planning a trip up to Richmond in my truck to see my brother in mid-July. I'm not asking you to hold it until then, just expressing my sincere interest. PM me if you want to discuss. :cool:

Oh good! Here's hoping! I'm moving across town, and got hit with a $1000 dollar expense I wasn't expecting, so it'd be very timely.
