    Yo ucan get those or you can get the body armor pants and put those under your jeans. May be cheaper. Go look at http://www.bohnarmor.com/bohnarmor/index.asps
    I think they have what I am talking about. Just remeber any protection is better than none .

    Also keep an eye out on ebay for leathers. I went and looked at a pair a guy was selling for $200 on ebay. Just so happened he lived near me. They didn't fit. The sold on ebay for $208 they were worht at leat $600. Mint condition. so you can get a deal on ebay if you look. also go look at www.newenough.com they always have some on clearance. Go to a shop try some on get a good fit and then look on line.

        if you are in a warmer climate the ballistic can be uhh warm..mainly from the water proof liner in them. i wore them in the summer and about died from the heat.

          Newenough has leather pants on close out, $85 US.
          http://www.newenough.com/firstgear_h...pants_page.htm . I'm thinking of getting a pair for colder months, my current leather pants are perforated and while awesome most of the year are a little chilly in the early spring and late Fall.

          As far as I know $85 is close to what the Ballistic pants go for. You could easily have a zipper aded to your jacket so you could connect your pants to it.

          Ebay is also awesome, I scored my JR speedmaster pants for less than half of what they go for locally, I just won a used matching jacket for less half of the local cost.

          You can usually get some cheap leathers on ebay, AGV, HJC, Teknic, and Fieldsheer are always on Ebay, There is a Ton of Joe Rocket stuff on there all the time.
