The AirLite chaps have caught my eye. Does anyone have them on their bike? What are your impressions? Did you get them with pockets or without? How do they stay on by just stretching over the bar?

I had a set of those on my Nomad for all five years that I owned it. They were great! Get the ones with the pockets....you can always use more space. I filled one side with foam ear plugs and misc stuff in the other. They fit over the bars and there are a couple velcro strips on the right side that hold it all together. They work great with larger lowers to eliminate most all of the Nomad buffeting. Also get the ones with the holes for the highway pegs. I left mine all year around ....I'll bet you do too once you see how well they work. Two thumbs up....!

PS...I cut the mesh piece out that covered the radiator....but to each their own....
