Can you see me now? (My new foul weather gear)

lw · 10-07-2009, 02:48 PM

Announcing a worldwide shortage of VizMax fabric and Scotchlite reflective tape . . .

Hood tucks into the collar of the parka , and zip-in liner can be worn seperately and is nearly equal in ANSI rating. Anybody that cant/doesnt see me has their head in their A$$, or is busy texting, reading the paper, putting on makeup, etc.

Now they will say, "But officer, I was blinded by the brightness!"

I really like that outfit!

I thought of your suit when I ordered it Bob.

I'll likely use the complete jacket system for winter riding, as the polar fleece/quilted liner will be plenty warm for our mild Houston winter weather.

**Top Cat** · 10-07-2009, 04:12 PM

Who makes that suit Larry?

lw · 10-07-2009, 04:51 PM

Tag in the collars says VEA Visibility Enhanced Apparel

I ordered through Galls Public Safety Equipment catalog.
www.galls.com

Jacket system is item # JA534

The pants were a seperate item# RW003, and accordinng to the site they are clearanced at $29 so if you like 'em you might want to hurry. They are a sturdy garment with a black inner lining. Might prove a bit warm for here in the Houston Sauna, but they will do well in the winter.

Larry, next time you order fabric like that let me know and I'll buy some January calls on the company stock!!!!

Very nice Larry. You'll look like a big wedge of LIME on your Nomad!

Hmmm, that suit kind of reminds me of the following.

I like it!
I keep a reflective top like that in the saddle bag and wear it in the rain and at night. Can't have too much visibility ;)

Sorry for the slight hijack, but...

Are you back riding again, Joe? Is your thumb healed up?

Now back to our regular discussion...

mcdaddy · 10-09-2009, 08:04 PM

LW, I have rain gear like that. Mine says Texas Department of Transportation on the back ;). It will wake you up in the morning too

Ken and I get comments (positive) all the time by riders and non-riders about our visiability with our day glow tourmaster jackets.

There was a thread a while back where someon asked if folks were wearing the bright jackets etc just for attention....duh...yep...I call it visability.

"Are you back riding again, Joe? Is your thumb healed up?"

Thanks for asking Scott..

Yes, 2 surgeries later riding again, although not as much as before. Gave me a new respect for riding..playing the odds...

Now back to the show ;)

Dang, love that suit LW. If they don't see you in that, they are driving with a red-tipped cane.
