Midrsv Posted January 30, 2008 #2 Posted January 30, 2008 I'll answer for my wife. She has and Olympia Air Glide. It is a mesh jacket with a zip out waterproof liner. It's good from about 45 degrees to 85 degrees. http://store.bobsbmw.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=2123 http://www.olympiamotosports.com/ladiesairglide/ladiesairglide.htm DT

sarges46 Posted January 30, 2008 #4 Posted January 30, 2008 You've got to check out this site...great deals and good to deal with. Check their closeouts. www.newenough.com I've bought several jackets from them in the closeouts and have never been dissapointed. Here is one example http://www.newenough.com/closeouts/bargain_basement/cortech_by_tour_master/accelerator_textile_motorcycle_jacket.html

stardbog Posted January 30, 2008 #10 Posted January 30, 2008 New Enough is way to go. Personaly I can strongly recommand Tour Master Textil jackets. Well made ,and price is right. http://www.newenough.com/protective_apparel/mesh_jackets_and_pants/tour_master/ladies_intake_mesh_motorcycle_jacket.html
timk Posted January 30, 2008 #11 Posted January 30, 2008 My wife has a TourMaster Flex. All season, and CE armor.
royalstarjac Posted January 30, 2008 #12 Posted January 30, 2008 My wife loves her FirstGear Jacket. Here's a thread describing it. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17118 Honda of East Toledo has many other makes and styles at the lowest prices I have found. They're good to deal with through their ebay store also. I just bought 2 pair of Firstgear H2 overpants from them to go along with the jackets. I would highly recommend them.-Jack http://stores.ebay.com/Honda-East-Toledo
