I was at a shop yesterday and seen some of the new 2006 JR stuff.

A few things have changed...

They have became Honda's exclusive gear line. That will be effecting their product line alot. Even in the sport touring line with the Gold Wing and such.

Also, Michael Jordan, has signed with them. And you can and will see more of his influence. Alot more of the powder blue and white color. And they have some gear coming out with the classic Jordan air logo. Click here for more info.

Furthermore, they have really come out with some cool new features on their jackets in 2006.

One of them being a waterproof pocket on the inside of the jacket, on the left side, over your chest area. Storage for your Ipod, FM radio or other MP3 player. It also comes with this neat rubber grament in the collar where you will run your headphone cord from that pocket to the outside of your jacket to your head.

The other really cool feature will be the face shield visor pocket. It is on right side of the jacket. It allows you to slide a extra shield into the jacket. The shield will curve around your side.

These features, the MP3 stuff, and the visor pocket will be found on nearly all of the 2006 JR line. I seen alot of it yesterday and it looks AWESOME.

I checked the JR site and don't see anything about it yet.

I like some of the JR gear but I still like the ICON gear alot better. My first jacket was a JR Corona jacket (what can I say, I like Corona) and I bought my wife the JR Phoenix 3.0 jacket - just to turn around and buy The ICON motorhead and tuscadero leather jackets.......... :scratch: OH to each their own.

That's why they make so many different styles.
