HOT weather - your gear solution - comfort, protection, or skip the ride? - Page 8

Jemmie · 07-06-2015, 02:51 AM

Being a motorcycle rider i love to ride in every weather either it's hot or it's cold. It is also a fact that without making the required changes it's quiet hard to enjoy safe ride.

My Gear in Winters

In the extreme weather condition in winters i love to use my one piece Alpinestars Motegi Race Suit with full face helmet and heated motorcycle glove.

My Gear in Summers

I am quiet lucky that i have perfect piece of motorcycle riding gear for summers to. Instead of using textile jacket i prefer to go with mesh motorcycle jacket Just look at my perfect value mesh motorcycle jacket from jackets4bikes.com with extra plastic shells on arms and shoulder, with the padding on front and back it provide me required protection and flexibility to do enjoy my ride.

That's so the rider gets a nice grilling pattern.

I think there's a shill in the air. New member appears out of nowhere and posts in two threads about riding gear. S_P_A_M.

A mesh suit with a cooling vest is better than nothing in that kind of heat. I have a mesh Kevlar suit (Motoport) that I wore crossing the Mojave on a day it reached 127° in Needles, AZ. It probably was over 120° when I passed thru Needles. The suit reflected a lot of the heat (it has a UV and water repellent coating) and the vest made a huge difference in keeping me cooler. Not cool mind you, but definitely cooler. I stuck my arm out a few times to expose skin between my glove the the cuff and it felt like I was exposing the area to a blast furnace.

Before I got this suit, I used textile mesh in the summer. Still cooler than nothing in 100+ degree heat if you use a cooling vest.

It is. Just a few miles west of the Colorado River near Lake Havasu City.

I guess it is. It's right on the border. I wasn't too concerned at the time. I just wanted to get away from there!

You can check by yourself what i am suggesting. Instead of making out of turn comment.
Is there is any rule that a member can't suggest any gear from which he is benefiting from.
