Default so...ummm, I now ride without a jacket...(let me explain)

+100 on the jacket not fitting properly.

if it makes it difficult to control the bike, it is the wrong jacket.



For those that complain about the heat:
The hotter it is, the MORE you need that set ofl eathers on. Counterintuitive, but anyone that lives in nevada or some other southwestern desert state can probably attest to this fact: the leathers provide thermal insulation to keep you cool when riding in 100+ degree weather. I opened the visor last July one time in Nevada to adjust my glasses, and it felt like opening an oven up and getting the first burst of hot air......

but hey it's your skin, just don't try to pass off your experience with an ill-fitting jacket as the standard for everyone.
