RE: Chaps?
Never had a pair, but I was recommended to this company for their saddle bags:

Might be worth a look.

RE: Chaps?
I was sitting around thinking, you know what would be good. Separation of church and state, in this case, separation of chaps from fingerless gloves in different threads. I'msure its been done already, but I'm too lazy to search for the history. It's kind of like a stock split - twice the bang for the buck.

If you want something a bit different, bullet proof, water proof & made in the USA, try www.coloradochaps.com
I have a pair and really like them. Bought some cheapos when I started riding again this spring & they barely made it through the summer.

It was 29 degrees for my morning ride today and my legs were not cold.

Rodeo guys meaning bull and bronco riders. I know Harleys vibrate a bit, but if your bike handles that badly then I'd recommend chapsfor you too. Oh, and show up at a rodeo withblack leather chapson sometime...see how far that gets ya

I don't get why protecting your lower body with leather is gay? Rodeo guys where chaps, are they gay too?

RE: Chaps?
Chaps, any leather product does a great job blocking wind. If you want to stay warm, chaps ain't the best alternative. There are far better ways to stay warm and enjoy the ride than wearing Chaps. As far as Gay, I wouldn't saythey make you look or are gay, butrather look stupid on 90% of those(men and women)who wear them. Just MHO.
