I have a new w/o tags Vanson ladies jacket for sale. I bought this for my wife when she first got her license. It's a great jacket but she didn't like the "sport bike" cut. I bought her a nice Harley jacket instead.

This is a Vanson prototype jacket. As stated above, it is a new jacket. It's only been worn a few times to try on the fit. It's never been used for riding.

Size is medium.

Asking price: $250 obo

It's the jacket on the left in both pictures. The color on the picture isn't the best. It's really just like the color of other Vanson Buell jackets you've seen in the past.

Okay...I'll drop the price to $225 obo plus shipping. That is still well below retail on a great jacket.

My girl is 5'2 and weighs about 100 lbs.

Do you think it will be too big?

I was going to ask the same thing (well... almost) about sizing.

Can you tell us your wife's approximate size and height/weight so that we'll have an idea of how it fits?

I'd love to have it but I am scared it might be too small for me. I've owned lots of leathers before but, believe it or not, never a Vanson so I'm somewhat unsure of fit.

My wife is 5'6" (she'd kill me if I put her weight, even if it isn't bad: )) She wears a size 8 dress.

The sleeves were a good fit. The jacket may have been very slightly too short. But it's hard to determine with a sport riding cut jacket. The waist is adjustable with velcro straps.

If you have any type of a sportbike jacket, this jacket should run within those sizes also.

FYI...The same jacket (w/o the Buell logos) is $599 retail. It's on sale at Vanson.com for $479.

How about $200 plus shipping? I'm guessing around $15 for priority shipping to MA. I could get it out tomorrow and you should have it in time for Christmas.

hmmm...... The only issue I have is I don't know if this is going to fit her that well. If not then it will be on here again but with me selling it.

Was it small/tight on your wife when zippered up?

Back to selling this jacket...

Not too tight. It was tad too short. The jacket has adjustable velcro straps for the waist.

In all fairness, it's a close call on 5'2" and 100#. I know the small in this jacket is VERY small. Spidey won a small Vanson at homecoming a few years ago.

OK here's what I'll do.

I was going to give this to her as one of her Christmas presents. Let me ask her if she likes it or not. If so, I'll take it. If not, then I'll pass.

Sound good?


I'll let you know tonight/tomorrow what she says.


Thanks,
Jim

Hey noobie...how long have you been around Buells? Oh yeah...maybe 6 months. I've been riding Buells almost as long as you've been alive. Now read the original post about the colors being off in the photos.
