Perfect holiday gift
It's a POLICE (reflector) jacket. Too bad it's all black...but it'd be
fun to wear in traffic and watch the reactions. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MEWA:IT --Karen M. |

What would happen if a real cop sees you wearing that? I have one and so far on a bike I have gotten a few waves accompanied by strange looks but nothing more. It is a real CHP jacket since my friends father gave it to me before he died of lung failure. (Macho cop + cigs). -- Bill (?) Baka |

I took the little badge thingies off. -- Bill (?) Baka |

In Chicago you can buy used leather cop jackets which are great for motorbikes, but if you leave the insignia on you WILL get hassled or ticketed. A warning would be fair enough in my book. :P |

I don't know and don't care since it is one hell of a good jacket, thick, but warm and eats bristle bushes for lunch. I have never even managed a tear in it after 15 years. I think the fact that they are being worn by California Highway Patrol with bikes and bike riding books kind of makes it obvious they are cops. -- Bill (?) Baka |
