Just curious if anyone has the Buell mesh jacket and/or knows how they fit. I am 5'10" 190 athletic 41" chest. |

You need Large, I am 6' 195lbs, had the XL and was just huge, sold it and got the L, this one is still baggy on the sides, but I guess they make all jackets for fat people only. |

but I guess they make all jackets for fat people only. Large fits me well. I'm 210,5'7". I would guess large for you. |

I wish I could try one on but every place I've been to doesn't have them. They also tell me that if I order it from them so that I can try it on, then I have to buy it. Kind of ridiculous if you ask me. If anyone knows a place in Northern NJ or Eastern PA that has them in, or if you have one that I could try on, I'd really appreciate it. |

Somewhere, somebody said that some of Buell jackets are made by Joe Rocket. Try their Pheonix model and see how it feels. Can anybody confirm this? |

what about the arm length of Medium compared to Large? I like it more form fitting, but not if the sleeves will be short... |

I tried a Buell mesh jacket but thought for a mesh jacket it was kind of heavy. I live in south Texas where heat is a big issue and I wear bare minimum protection in the hot months (June, July and August). Down here riding year around is no problem. I have a leather jacket and a mesh jacket both have removable liners so I can pick my comfort level easily. |
