Default new icon jacket

SoI just picked up a new icon black team merc stage 2 jacket. Fits a little snug at first. Not completely sold on it so I kept the tags on and went for a ride.Sunny and 70 out as I banged off the first few gears. The jacket fit better riding and was actually comfortable. The only problem was the collarless neck would jab ya in the throat after awhile and the wind would go down your back a little ( good on a hot day I guess)....anyway just a little info for anyone looking for a somewhat cheap jacket before laying down the big money for the leather.

That is nice. It's been so hot and humid it was the cheap way to go. Definatley going for leather as soon as funds are there. Probaly go with the merc leather hero. I can get that for 296.00 at the local bike shop I deal with.

It's sooo hot. So hot you should use the "F" word before you say hot, so everyone knows how hot is is. I am thinking of getting a Dainese summer jacket. I don't like to ride without protection, and my jacket is just too hot.

Your right, it was really F-ing hot last week! 90 degrees and F-ing humid! The bike ran so F-ing hot I couln't wait to get F-ing home!....but when the F-ing sun went down it was a nice ride man! Yeah, I feel better now....The Icon jacket has a zipper for air flow on the forearms and the back so it's not too bad I actually like more now.
