Yesterday, all the apparel (included with the motorcycle financing :( ) arrived which included the leather "Road Racer Jacket by Hein Gericke"

(those pictures don't do them justice) and my wife's "Urban Leather Jacket", both in red and white. Those jackets are AWESOME. Everyone at the parts bench were asking me why I wanted red and I told them visibility. When the jackets arrived, they (including me) were astonished about how nice they were. Being a silver bike, the jacket has a few silver logos and some pin striping that made it a perfect match to the bike. I drove off with the Yamaha "Fusion Pants" and Yamaha "One-Piece Over Rain Suit" stuffed in the side cases. I got down the freeway and headed right into a rain storm (typical for Florida). Pulled over under an over-pass and traded the jacket for the rain suit. What timing. It was all good.

 
'Fusion' pants? Sounds painful... :blink: Jackets do look nice, though.

So the apparel was a freebie for financing w/Yamaha, or you rolled the cost into the financing?

-To complete the ensemble, you must now find some Yamaha underwear and Yamaha boots to be worthy enough to hang out with the HD guys... :D

Hadn't tried on the fusion pants, but now that you mentioned it, could hurt a little when the skin starts to fuse together w/ the pants. :lol:

I wish the apparel came as a freebie, just included it w/ the purchase.

OK, for the completion of the ensemble, I found the underwear but will still be looking for the boots.

Damn, Glitterdan! That is just WRONG! C'mon now, 'fess up...whose underwear drawer did you raid?

Hmmm...Radman's? TWN's? SkooterG's?

 
Not to be a safety nut, but aren't rain coats supposed to go over your protective jacket, not replace it? Okay, okay. I'm being a safety nut and from someone that wears gnarly old work boots to ride this just isn't right. Sorry.

That rainsuit was purchased to be used during the cooler months. It can go over the jacket, but with the lined coller and thermal insulated liner, it would have been too hot to go over that leather jacket that particular day. You're totally right about not going for safety, but for that short amount of time, I chose comfort over protection. I am trying to collect every possible item we need for a much more safer ride for my wife and I. Needed items left to buy are the lightweight rainsuits, mesh jackets and eventually some leather pants.

Jeff - All the apparal, including the Yamiundies can be found: here As for the HD chick that models them, you'll need 32 of them if you want a full set of teeth. :lol: Lord, I apologize ...
