I mostly wear a Halvarsson Seventy Classic Jacket on my CB1100EX. It is a marvelous goat skin jacket, witch is perfect in wearing comfortably and it matches perfect to the bike. See the Image. An other jacket for my bike is my Old School Barbour International waxed jacket.

Nice jacket

I'm 6'1" and about 250lbs I have the Tourmaster Intake 3.0 in XXL 50 and I love it. It has a rain liner and a quilted liner. In the winter I ran with both liners in and it was plenty warm with appropriate clothing on underneath. I've been run without the liners now with just the mesh jacket. Its a little warm if you are sitting still, but once you are moving its fine. I have run with the zipper down a little on the couple of 90deg days we had latterly. Note: On me it is snug fitting with the liners in, with its a little loose which I like anyway.

It is a little lacking for a collar, but I wear a Gore bikewear mask in the winter so not really an issue.

Been real happy with my vented bomber from Fox Creek. They got some nice stuff.

The biggest recommendation is to find something comfortable that you'll actually wear.
During the occasional summer heat wave I'll wear my [url=http://www.cyclegear.com/CycleGear/Street/Jackets/Textile/brand/ALPINESTARS/T-AST-Air-Mesh-Motorcycle-Jacket/p/44067_200897_2]Alpinestars Mesh jacket — black with hi-viz accents. (After buying the jacket, I picked up some matching mesh overpants that I now wear almost all the time.) The rest of the time I wear my custom jacket made by our local motorcycle leathers company, Langlitz Leathers. The Langlitz is a true piece of craftsmanship, but these days I cover it up with a hi-viz vest. ![]() When the weather is really nasty wet, I've got a one piece REV'IT rainsuit to toss on top.

An other jacket for my bike is my Old School Barbour International waxed jacket. I love Dianese apparel, BUT it's not made for my body type...most of their jackets don't even come in my size. I'm saving my pennies for either a fox creek or a vanson leather jacket. One bad thing about having a spouse who also rides is that you have to save for two of everything .... "If you're getting a new jacket, then I'm getting one, too".

Yeah, why is that, it's like they are mad you spent money on yourself, but then they are willing to double that and get one themselves? AND I found if you try to go cheaper, they will eventually realize you have the pricier gear and want the same too! We di that with Gore-Tex jackets, I had Arcteryx, she had LL bean, guess who has a top of the line now too! dang |
