Well this last weekend I got out my MRSV and went down to see my sister in Eugene, OR. Since I live in Vancouver, WA. it was a nice long ride. This was finally the chance to really check out my new vmax gears and my WarmGear ensamble. Going down their I had a brutal head wind, and just a few places of misting rain. I thought that was a great test for my heated gear, because I stayed nice and toasty all the way down. On the way back It rained like Noah was coming back, but at least I had a nice tail wind. The heated gear worked great both ways. It really kept me warm and comfortable. Let me tell you about those fantastic gears. I absolutely love my new gears. I feel that this is really the way this bike should have come from the factory. I had to always downshift when passing on the highway before the gears, but now, just a quick twist of the throttle and you are flat gettin around vehicles. It's almost scarey what the new gears do for the bike. Any way I just thought that some of you folks would like to know about the rear gears and heated WarmGear.

Well, I finally got all my heated gear on yesterday and took the bike out for a day ride. It sucks here in the north west due to one day of riding weather and 6 days of lousy weather; oh well, better than not riding at all. Any way with the new upgraded stator and vmax rear end gears, it was an awesome ride. I can't say enough about the new gears. The power to weight performance is such a vast improvement. So as far as riding gear I have: WarmGear jacket liner, WarmGear pants liner, WarmGear gloves and Gerbing heated insoles, along with the WarmGear heat troller. Btw, I think that WarmGear and FirstGear is made by the same company, doing a side by side comparison they look exactly the same other than the logos. With the new stator I did not have any problem losing voltage or draining the battery.

Ok folks; yesterday my wife told me that my "WarmGear" ensemble arrived at the house. Since I work at Mcchord AFB in Tacoma, I have to wait till tomorrow to open it and check out the new stuff. I have read quite a bit about the different offerings out their on the web site, but last year my wife bought me the warmgear gloves for my birthday and so I thought that I would get the rest of the ensemble to match. I wanted to get the socks but they are sold out. A buddy of mine from work told me about a place in Lakewood, WA. thats sells heated clothing (Eagle Leathers) so I popped in there yesterday and found that Gerbing sells heated insoles for boots and bought some for $59.00. Today I went into the local Triumph store in lakewood and they sell "firstGear". I think that WarmGear and FirstGear are made by the same company, because if you look at their stuff side by side it looks exactly the same. Anyway I can't wait to get it all wired on the bike and me, and then go check it out, which will be tomorrow.
