Yes, I'd say that's a good deal for an unused leather jacket. A leather River Road would cost you around $250-270 in a store.

HD does not make their own gear. Period.

They buy it from someone else, throw a logo on it, and resell it at 2-4x the price it should be.

Even the FXRG line, good as it is, is rebranded. The same exact jackets are available from Fieldsheer, Tourmaster and First Gear (depending on style) without the logos for about 1/2 to 1/3 the price.

Which models?

Oh, OK. Let's see what my "bad" advice was...quote..."you gotta try them on". Yeah, real bad advice.
