You'll be glad to have a vest when eating in a cold restaurant. A person looks they're on their last dollar wearing a big jacket in the buffet line.

I don't have one, but will eventually. Just bought a vented leather/cordura jacket. I was going to wear it, even when it was hot out, but think it will be too warm over 80.

So a vest would be nice to keep my phone, wallet in. If I ever go down, phone won't help me, if it its in tour pak.

Have had one for about a year. Worn a handful of times. If going on a long ride I will wear otherwise not for quick in town rides. Don't really care what other people think.

I've always worn a vest. Minimal patches, tho & mostly military stuff, plus both my US & German jump wings. Makes it much easier to stash a pack of smokes, cell phone & a pair of amber glass for when I get caught out at night. Handy for toting a G26, as well.

My vest is worn for one reason and that is, it has gun pockets on the inside left and right. They provide a place for my 40 S&W and extra mags. I don't care who approves or disaproves of the vest. Later

Still wearing the same denim vest I have had since October, '70. Been kept together by my sister who does a great job of sewing and cross stiching and patching

Kinda thought vests where for club riders. I do like the way they look, but like the protection of my jacket.

Yes I vest on rides of any distance, not short trips into town. Texas summers get waay hot down here, but will sometimes wear a vest only in the summer.......and its patched out and tells a story of where I've been over the years
