What kind of jacket do you sport?

What kind of jacket do you sport riding the Multi? Of course weather is a factor, I know.

I had a Langlitz made a few years back.

I have several due to conditions in north Texas. Vanson mesh jacket for those 90+ days,An Olympia for the possibility of rain. My most recent is an Aerostitch 2 piece suit for all conditions though it's way too warm for the hot part of the summer. The "stitch is my favorite one and I wear it the most. I have a Ducati textile jacket too but don't wear it as much 'cause it fits a tad too tight (too much junk food!).

I have a MotoPort custom two piece to accomodate my a-typical roundness

made to order means perfect fit.

I mostly wear either my Revit CR, or my Olympia Airglide 3.

I have a Ducati Corse leather jacket, which I don't really wear because its too big. Its a 54, so if anyone has a new condition 50 or 52 and are interested in trading, let me know.

Cheers.

FG Kilimanjaro in the winter/fall or if I'm expecting rain; regular mesh jacket or a set of Spartan leathers in the summer.

Wish I could fit into most gear; the Kili is baggy and the mesh sleeves are ... a little short. Looking at a Teiz suit (if only it was waterproof) or some of the BMW gear. Hard to find something that'll work in the range of temps we have in NM and be sufficiently protective

I usually wear a Rev'It Sand jacket. If it's really hot I'll wear an old Olympia Airglide II that is better-ventilated.

MotoPort : air mesh kevlar jacket (and pants)

Outstanding for hot days. With the pants, I can ride in shorts and be safe.

Keith Code allowed the combo on the track in his school. It's the real deal.

Really nice for a tall skinny guy to get a jacket fit right - no more sunburned wrists. Plus, I started thinking about just how much my jeans protect my lower half, and what I wanted to be wearing when I hit the deck.

So it's fully monkey suit outfit all the time now, and no excuses about it being too hot.
