Shed Your Heavy Winter Jacket – Leather Vests Now Available
It’s time to start thinking about shedding the heavy layers of winter riding gear! Leather vests are available now! These leather vests lace up the side to allow you to “let it out” or “hold it in”! The side lacing also works great to wear over your leather jacket or favorite sweatshirt, allowing you to layer your gear. These vests come with no original patches or designs so you have a blank canvas to showcase your own patches and emblems. This means you can have your favorite patches sewn on to your vest but wear them no matter how hot or how cold it gets. Not to mention, with two pockets you can store your valuables or things you need easy access to while out on a ride. These vests retail for $69.95 and with that great pricing you know they’ll be hard to keep in stock!

Holiday Gift Buying Guide: Give the Best
When considering what gifts to give the riders in your life, why not consider giving the best that money can buy? When it comes to Harley-Davidson gear, the best is the Harley-Davidson FXRG High-Performance Gear. Here are some features of the H-D FXRG collection that will keep you comfortable in virtually all weather conditions.
Schoeller c_change™ waterproof/windproof system – This is the liner in the men’s and women’s textile and leather jackets and pants. It actually reacts to changing temperatures and moisture levels to make sure you stay comfortable. If it senses heat, the structure of teh c_change™ membrane opens up so excess heat can escape to the outside air. If it senses cold, the structure of the membrane closes to retain body heat and keep you warm.
Cool-Max® fixed, breathable liners – Keeps you dry and confortable. This liner actually moves perspiration away from the body to the fabric’s outer surface, where it evaporates quickly. It’s soft, lightweight and breathable.
Airguard™ Fabric – This is the fabric used for the textile FXRG Jackets. It is 20% lighter than nylon and 52% lighter than polyester. This means you still get the wind and waterproof protection that is abrasion and tear-resistant without all of the bulk. It is constructed to regulate body temperature in both warm and cold conditions.
Heat/Sun Deflecting Leather – Black leather typically is much warmer than white leather. With the leather used to make the FXRG Leather Jackets and Pants, the sun’s rays are reflected off the jacket as if it was white, even though it’s black. This helps to reduce your core body temperature when it is sunny.
Pre-curved arms and knees with an “action back” – Designed to fit you best when you are actually sitting on a motorcycle in the riding position. This means when you are standing next to your bike, the gear will feel weird and slightly uncomfortable. The gear feels best because it is designed to match your riding position.
Lightweight, removable body armor – Special little pockets inside the shoulders, elbows, spine, hips and knees hold the body armor pieces. They can each be adjusted to conform to your individual shape.
3M™ Scotchlite™ reflective piping – This feature is all about visibility. This reflective material is visible from at least 500 feet, which makes you as a motorcyclist more visible to other motorists. This is high-tech stuff in that it uses “retro-reflection” which helps the human eye perceive light even in low-light conditions. The material then reflects the light directly back towards teh light source. This material is found on all items in the FXRG Collection to make you more visible to others on the road.
5-Year Warranty – This warranty covers all of the leather and textile jackets and pants. There is a similar 1 year warranty on all the helmets and gloves.
Will you be giving your loved ones the best in riding technology, performance, and comfort this holiday season?
Need More Riding Time? Extend it with H-D® Heated Clothing
Everyone wants to spend more time out on the road each day and each season. With Harley-Davidson® Heated Gear you can do just that. But with the advances in technology there are so many options and combinations of heated gear and accessories that we want to make sure you know the whats and the hows so you can make an informed decision.
Heated gear is not just for those riders that insist on riding when it’s below zero and snowing. Heated gear is all about COMFORT AND SAFETY. If you are the slightest bit uncomfortable, it dramatically impacts the ride. If you are concentrating on how cold you are or how best to keep your fingers warm, you aren’t concentrating on the road or drivers around you. This can be a safety issue. Another safety issue is that as your joints and muscles get colder, your awareness, reflexes and body movement suffers. The H-D® Heated Gear works with your body by supplementing the body’s natural ability to generate heat.
The gear is designed for motorcyclists so it can be comfortably warn with other gear options. It also incorporates new Microwire® heat TECHNOLOGY to provide the thinnist, lightest, strongest and fastest heating system ever. That means that heat is going to be dispersed throught the gear quickly but evenly without making the gear bulky and difficult to move in.
Most people are concerned with HOW the gear is hooked up to the motorcycle. The gear can either be connected to the battery of the bike or to a separate battery that is placed in the pocket of the pants or jacket. The best resource for hooking up the heated gear to your bike is to check with the heated gear manual that comes with the gear. This will also give you vital information about how much voltage is used and how that affects your bike’s performance.
Another key to finding appropriate heated gear is making sure the gear FITS PROPERLY. The H-D® Heated Gear works best when it is worn close to the body however, a base layer is recommended to prevent direct contact of the skin with the heating elements. It’s also important to think about wearing outerwear, typically a jacket, chaps or rain gear, over the top of your Heated Gear to protect you from the wind, rain and other elements. Gloves that are too tight or two small may feel too hot. Gloves that are too loose or too big may not provide optimal heat. Also, if gloves do not fit appropriately, they might not allow you to comfortably or consistently operate the controls of the bike. The best thing you can do is to try try the Heated Gear on under your outerwear and sit on a bike in the dealership before you buy anything.
Here’s one last thing to consider when buying Heated Gear. There is a one yaer WARRANTY on all Harley-Davidson® garments. There is a three year warranty on all thermostats, connecting harness, three-prong harness, power switch, Y-plug Splitter, and adapter plugs. There is a lifetime warranty on all electrical components within the garment.
Harley-Davidson® Heated Gear allows you to ride longer and safer, extending your riding time into seasons with colder temperatures. It also allows you more opportunities to create memorable riding experiences.
So how do you plan on extending your riding time?
