    New Aero leather jacker...or not?

    I think the first post nailed it... trying to get anything to work but a jacket with design specifics for motorcycle riding is a compromise. You will be a lot more comfortable in both scenarios with a different type jacket.

    I was 15 and just got my dirt bike back from the shop (it was Hodaka)... it was in the shop for a repair to the brakes... I thought just taking it for a brief test ride up in the apple orchards would let me know if the brakes were in the good condition... uniform of the day was cut-off shorts...

    lol... most adventure bikes make the trip to starbucks... maybe... but for a giant pig of a bike, the new water boxer hauls ass and handles surprising well. Off road, it is a bit mixed bag. with two up, we are talking about 1000 pounds (w/ gear) so I stick to the double track. A 10 gallon tank...
