Cruizin Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 The same as my cold weather jacket... although I've been looking to change that and get something better for winter. Probably wouldn't be bad to get something better for summer, either. Icon Brawnson Sidewinder Thread rules clearly stated, please post a link so others can buy one too!

faffi Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 We do not have hot weather. Yesterday, we made a 250 mile ride with the highest temp 28C / 83F, and had I known it would get that high, I would have worn my vented leather jacket. I think I have worn it 4 or 5 times since I bought it in 2011. No link, but this is how it looks It is size 3XL because it's narrow over the shoulders and for the arms, but of course, and unfortunately, wide around the belly. I'm just 5'11'' and 200 lb.

hamfist33 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 My getup: https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-viper-air-textile-jacket Flows a ton of air, and absolutely worthless for cold weather. the removable windbreaker vest is great but my arms get cold when it's in the 60's.

USMCFieldMP Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 We do not have hot weather. Yesterday, we made a 250 mile ride with the highest temp 28C / 83F. Lucky. I'm in Texas. High today was 100°F/38°C. It's not too bad if you're moving... gets pretty bad when stopped or in thick traffic though. The advantage is that I can ride just about year round, as it's generally not that bad in the winter months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guylee Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 A tour master I got from craigslist http://www.jafrum.com/shop-by-brand/tourmaster/tour-master-jackets-tour-master-jett-series-3-jacket-mens?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIlZX0z_am1QIVkrfACh1zmA1kEAYYBCABEgLV__D_BwE I like it because it has removable liners so I can go from warm and waterproof to just mesh.

The advantage is that I can ride just about year round, as it's generally not that bad in the winter months.Define lucky. We have about 250 days a year with rain or snow, leaving on average 1.2 meters of wetness annually (Bergen gets twice as much! and the average temperature over a year is 7.4C / 45.3F, with a typical high of 28C / 82.4F and low of -10C / 14F. Records are 33.5C / 92.3 and -16.1C / 3F where I live. In all of Norway, the absolute records are 35.6C / 96.1F and -51.4C / -60.2F. Still, I'd rather live here than in Texas for several reasons and definitely for the weather - it is much easier to do something to stay reasonable in the wet and chill than the hot and dry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMCFieldMP Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 I'm aware. I lived in England for 2 years, so I know what it can be like in that part of the world. Moderate temps, but rain, rain, rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paypurcup Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 http://m.ebay.com/itm/NEW-DAINESE-G-HYDRA-FLUX-D-DRY-JACKET-BLACK-DARK-GULL-GRAY-YELLOW-EU-50-US-40-/262433654418?txnId=2042660476016 Just received this Dainese D Dry jacket a couple weeks ago from this seller. Great price compared to other vendors, but shipping took a couple weeks as it came from Germany. I am 6' at 160 pounds and got the size eu50. Fitment at the chest and arm length are near perfect. I do wish that the length was just a touch longer though. As for the jacket in use, it has been pleasant under the sun with a lot of mesh to flow air flow through. It is usually 80-90F where I live.

rider Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I have the AGV Sport Solare (I'm not the only one in thus thread) in hi viz. Being in south Texas, it's pretty much my year round jacket. Really like it, but the zipper has the slide on the wrong side for some reason - no big deal once I got used to it. The rubber patches on the sleeves came unstitched, so I took them all the way off. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/agv-sport-solare-jacket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motorazr Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Joe Rocket UFO 2.0 I'm in Atlanta. The jacket is nice quality, lots of features, pretty high-viz in this color, and it's NOT black (which defeats the purpose of wearing a mesh jacket in the first place). At 6'1", 205 lbs with a 46-inch chest, I wear a size-XL. I tried a large and, while not TOO snug, the sleeves were a little short. In my experience, some extra room in a warm-weather jacket allows air flow. In cooler weather, some extra room makes it possible to add layers for warmth. I was tortured by the Japanese during the war, Jack. Not a pretty story. Strange thing is they make such bloody good cameras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweeps Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 I ride in 36c degree heat blasting at me in Thailand and I swear by my Olympia Air glide jacket. Flows more air than anything and has great fit and functionality. I have looked for better but haven't found it. Certainly not at such a great price. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/olympia-airglide-5-jacket?gclid=Cj0KCQjw8b_MBRDcARIsAKJE7ln82Qetaf2fRsXKHptjL6g9XZ4CWrAnuTaWp45rXGlx7Y1Gf93rCKUaAlVeEALw_wcB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Mr.Puss Posted August 16, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted August 16, 2017 In the mail! Dainese Super Speed D-Dry. Christmas in August. https://gpbikes.com/street/jackets/dainese-super-speed-d-dry-jacket.html [attachment id=2537" thumbnail="1][attachment id=2538" thumbnail="1] DAMN IT....NOT in the mail. Why do these shops always list this stuff as IN stock and then inform me its out of stock?! Appears to be OoS everywhere except the overpriced places of course. First-world problems. Might just have to go with the MIG instead. Oh Oh...found it from the U.S. ! In the mail ...now lets hope they sent the right colour. Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women. Fuss Life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWulf Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Scorpion Influx. Removable liner for cooler days, CE2 protection all around (shoulders, elbows, back). Rode in 35C weather with no issues until you get stuck in traffic, then it doesn't matter what you wear, it's hot. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/scorpion-influx-jacket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinyribs Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 This jacket is not top of the line ( the nylon could be thicker) but I've got about 30,000 miles on mine and it has held up very well to a 55mph low side and several lowespeed offs on dual sport rides. Found mine on clearance local for $40. The removeable liner wads up so small it will fit in the trunk of an 07. It's good for temps as low as 45-50fIMO. I absolutely love this jacket. I did add some additional ventilation the the back pad. This jacket is nearly 100% mesh. Just enough nylon to hold the armor in place, which it does well. I have regularly ridden on 100f+ temps in complete comfort. It's actually cooler than NOT wearing a jacket. It's basically like carrying your own shade, but it has CE armor attached. Very comfortable collar and it has held up through probably a dozen machine washes. It's just now starting to do that weird purple fade thing. Highly recommended. Since it is River Road brand, I found it at my local Harley shop. The sport bike guys won't wear that brand, and the HD guys didn't think it was HD enough ( no eagles or orange stripes, I guess). Lucky me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
