I've had my Killimanjaro jacket for several years, at least 8 or 9, it's still in great shape. I'm pleased with mine, the only complaint I have is the velcro around the neck is a little scratchy.

I thought it was funny when one of the heat winners, a Kawasaki rider, said how much faster the Jap bikes were than the Harleys, the faithful jeered him..The last strong hold for HD is under attack!

It's not so bad now that they moved the front straight out from the wall some. It's not as good as Springfield but a lot better than it used to be. I'm hopin' for cool and dry weather this weekend.

Thanks for the help. With all the glowing reports you guys gave, I can hardly wait to get there! I've been riding for 50 years and I still get goose bumps when I get around a race track.

I wonder if it will be on TV? It was on DISH Network's HD Theater the last two years, sadly that channel is no longer on our package. Excellent coverage IMO.
