I am in the process of making a new under suit as I lost 100lbs and mine is HUGE now. So this was a good refresher on how to do it. I just cut out my patches again for the inner thighs... Thank god I made templates when I did mine the last time.

Advance Recon Team (ART) discussion
DesertScout replied to BikerScout007's topic in Advance Recon Teams
Ok we finally have a name Condor Dragon Cavalry Condor Dragons come from Endor and on occasion eat Ewoks. Cavalry as a nod to mounted Cavalry (biker scouts the horseback riding of SW) Dragon or Dragoon has been used in relationship to Scouts in military application in both England and Canada. Condor Dragons because their coloration is Blue & Gold which would give a subtle nod to he Blues on the St. Louis side and the Royals on the Kansas City side. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk -

Belt Problems Please Help
DesertScout replied to Zarth'Tarell's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
I also used a washer to back mine, but something else I did on both my kit and my wife's was make the belt one piece. The webbing wraps inside the plastic and I used a zip tie on the inside to attach the webbing of the main belt to the webbing from the drop straps on the inside so it did not sag. Basically this way it keeps all the stress off the plastic belt because the inner belt holds all of the load. Of I think about it later I will post a pic. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk -

Ok I believe I have your list fixed. Hopefully everything looks good to go. I am excited! New Front with Pouches brought in about 1/2in (keeping a gap to the ribs on the bund) and moved up about an inch so there is a gap to the belt. Drop straps fixed on the belt, biceps brought up about an inch, cod adjusted to not bunch. Belt line fixed not to droop in the back, also fixed the TD so it did not droop. I did notice the original was drooped after I had submitted and was a few weeks in. IT bothered me too. I think this is much better. Back adjustments, you can see the bund is right over left, belt is higher, and I took a good shot of the mud flap, I feel that much wider it will look weird as I don't have much of a butt to begin with.

I will have the updated pics for you tonight or tomorrow. The bund does infact close Right over Left. I did post a close up of the mud flap but I can see how it's hard to see. It's about 14in across basically covers from pocket to pocket outside edge on normal pants. I have a troop tomorrow anyway, so all easy fixes. Thanks again. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk -

It's ok, it was just going on a month and I saw the guy who applied an hour before me and some that applied after got feedback already so I didn't want to get lost in the shuffle. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk -

Gmrhodes13 - I know you guys are swamped crazy. But I was checking in to see if there where any updates. I was really hoping to have an answer (if even feasible at this point) before I ordered my Racing Shirt as they are quite the investment as well and they don't do runs that often. If you need any updated pictures I will be happy to make adjustments and get them back up ASAP! Thank you again for your consideration. I hope my pre-app post helped.

Thanks! I actually just turned it in today. Lots of work, but I really think the adjustments that people pointed out I should make in this post really helped. Fingers crossed it is good enough.

I also did a Lancer Pre Application post to ask for help and make your guys job easier hopefully catching issues before I submitted. You can see it here http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=18265 and I have made all the corrections that others have already pointed out such as taking in the legs and arms several inches, adjusting the cod and pouches and so on.
