I've got a Thunderbird 1600 and have just over 10,500 miles on the set the stock metz that came with the bike. That seems pretty good based on what I've been reading. Back tire just about ready for replacement.

Small
True to Size

I'm 5'10" 180lbs and a large fits well. I had origially ordered a medium, but it didn't have the length in the sleeves I needed, especailly when my arm were stretched out in the riding position. Not exactly riding weather in the mid west right now, so I haven't had a chance to ride with it. I love the way it looks and the uniqueness of the material. Only wish the liner went into the sleeves for added warmth.

Are these the "Drift" jeans I see on the Drayko website?

You've got them listed as "Drifter." Not sure if this is an older product from Drayko or if you guys just have the name wrong.

Sizing for the Joe Rocket Hemp Jacket.

I see from the size chart that size small has chest of 38-40 and waist of 28-31. I have a size 32 waist, will the small still fit me or do I need to move up to size medium.
It's just tough buying clothing on-line when you can't try it on. I bought a medium based on comments about the jacket running large. I had to return it for a large because I needed more length in the sleeves. I'd suggest the medium, this jacket does not run large in my opinion.
