I just got the spring motor clothes catalog in the mail today. Holy Crap!!! The FXRG is $795. It sure is a nice looking jacket though.

It's $840 for us "full figure" riders. 2xl and larger costs a premium. It looks like a fantastic jacket but I had to draw the line somewhere. I think the Evolution will work out for me.

You won't be disappointed. Here are a couple of pics of how the reflectors work when you're riding at night.

Thank you! My wife is always asking me what I want for Christmas, Father's Day, my birthday, our anniversary, etc. I really have a rough time with what to ask for (she's the same way), so we usually just lump them all together for a larger single purchase. The jacket was this year's.

That's the top of the line FXRG (98095-15VM), the retail on mine was $695 (98040-12VM), & the 20% off sale dropped it to $556 which I found to be competitive with other premium jackets.

Hey, if you want it bad enough, buy it. You can't take it with you.
I heard about a very wealthy old man who said when He died, he wanted to be buried with ALL of His money. It was His, He declared, He had worked hard all His life for it.
When He died, His wife walked up to the casket and said "Well, I don't think He would mind taking a check", as She put the check - made out for every dime the man owned - right there in His jacket pocket.
Everyone was happy.

2015 FXRG Switchback Leather Jacket. $636.00 from Kutter. Night photo. In daytime, the letters blend in well with the jacket. I paid about $450.00 twenty years ago for a First Gear Scout leather jacket that doesn't have near the features that the FXRG has. At that time, the First Gear was one of the best jackets made. Now they are junk.
