Default Mesh Jackets

Need some advice on a good mesh jacket. Starting to get pretty warm here and am thinking I better start looking for something a tad bit cooler than leathers

I'll be watching this thread, too. I'm leaving for a 9 week stay in Tucson soon, and want to pick up a good mesh jacket to wear while I'm there.

I bought a couple of these for me and my wife yesterday. Lots of features in one jacket. Will be great for Summer touring.

That would be great, but why does HD have to put their logo on it in foot high letters?

I agree. But the touring features were too good to pass up.

Yeah..kinda looking for something without HD on it. Love the bikes but I don't like walking around like a billboard for them.

Check out some of the Metric shops.
They have some nice mesh jackets
without big logo's. You might find
one you like. I have last years HD
mesh, small logo, very comfy in
the summer.And it has armor.
