I have a River Road as well, it's very comfortable. Looks amazing too, I get complements quite often.

+1 Fox Creek Leathers made in the U.S. I was shocked that all the HD leathers are made in China....can't an American company find someone in the U.S. to partner up with?? Cheaper made leathers with a HD price tag, guess it's all about money.......

I rode around in my FXRG in the cold rain. I found out two things. The first thing I found out was the boots I wear that are supposed to be waterproof are anything but. The other thing I found out was FXRG jacket that's supposed to be waterproof got me home dry and warm. So far it's a good $300 investment.
