We can fix that. Loev, U. Gnomes PS. The Firstgear H/T overpants are not very warm at all. Maybe better than ordinary Curdura but still not too warm. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? NEW from Yahoo!

They work well IF you pile on enough stuff underneath them. Then again, *anything* will work well with enough layers underneath. These things plus jeans aren't warm enough on colder days even here in SoCal. Gotta get some thermal something-or-other as a base layer. Off-roading is a different story. They work fine for that.

Might want to go have the circulation in your legs checked. I wear my FG Kilimanjaro pants over a pair of dress slacks for my winter commutes to work. No problems. That would be a 35 mile commute at temperatures well less than 32degrees F mind you (usually in the upper teens). Can't help you if you have delicate legs. Gino

I just went to WebMD and checked on the symptoms of poor circulation in the legs. I don't have any of them. I think it's safe to conclude that I'm just a p*ssy and I hate cold. RM http://geocities.yahoo.com/ps/info1

You guys wear pants? I leave my Darien pants in my luggage. I only wear them when I get to work to seal in the wet and cold. Toughen up guys. Riley A15 Montreal RM wrote:

This thing is a beautiful example of what a motorcycle jacket should be... Spine padding, shoulder, forearm and elbow armor. >>snip The Mach One looks sharp! Just picked up a Teknic Interstate (more of a sport cut, bought it for street rides..went with the yellow/black) and like it alot so far. Seems really well built, and the armor's solid. I'm ordering the optional CE armor, then will put the stock armor in wife Lori's Cortech Sport. As the stock Teknic armor seems to be a significant upgrade over the Cortech's. Curious...how many intake/exhaust vents does the Mach One have? The Interstate has one large intake on each arm, and one large exhaust in the back. side note: Has anybody bought the optional flag guards for the Acerbis Rally Brush guards? Think they're worth 20+ bucks? Scott A14 "thunderdog" Sorrento, Fl
