Many of my customers, including vikingwarhorse have beards and love what the vest does to keep the beard-up-the-nose in check----jack

Re:JACK'S FLAPS 3 Years, 4 Months ago  
You are correct Phils99Silverado1602. How many of you ride along with your left arm blocking the wind that is coming up the front of your body? I just built something so you could put your left arm back on the bars. Simple but effective, and it cuts the wind noise in half, which was just a positive by-product of the original intent to stop my glasses from buffeting---jack

Re:JACK'S FLAPS 3 Years, 4 Months ago  
Interesting observation. The fact is I have no vested (pun intended) interest in promoting any product! However I do call a spade a spade. If I find a product or a mechanic or a plumber or whatever that is not up to snuff, I don't hesitate to spread the word. If I find someone or something that delivers what they promise and have a good product or good service, it's only fair that I spread that around too. Funny how some people rush to judgement without knowing the persons or product involved. I quess it's a sign of the times that skepticism reigns sumpreme. I quess that skepticism before investigation is the result of the tons of 'snake oil salesmen' that constantly bombard us on TV, radio and the dreaded junk mail.

Re:JACK'S FLAPS 3 Years, 4 Months ago  
jaxdawg, 6'-2" here, 280 lb. What size would you recomend? I was playing around on the bike with airflow and noted I could stop the buffeting by either the arm on the chest or moving my face about 8" closer and 4" lower to the windshield. Both of which are not comfortable positions to ride..... Thanks!

at 6'2" and 280 I think a 50 should be pretty close. Remember that the side laces will let out to fit over your warm clothes ----cheers----jack
