    Got a few new pics yesterday and hope to get some more in the next few days if the weather will cooperate here in the Black Hills. High for tomorrow is only supposed to be 44 F. Nothing wrong with that but rain is also forecast.

    I'll add a few to the website after I get back home so I can pick and choose the best looking ones.

    I did 100+ miles in my new Adventure over the weekend. All I can say is superb ... even though the temps this weekend were pretty high ... the venting system works brilliantly.

    Now I just need a set of Adventure pants in blue to match the jacket :clap

    That's because it got cleaned when I rode through the stream. :lol3

    Actually, that spot was just off the highway in Spearfish Canyon so we hadn't ridden any dirt yet. In this pic here, if you hadn't already figured it out, I was just screwing around trying to make it look like I rode through the stream. That road just led to a cabin in the woods (private property).

    Believe me though, it's dirty now! We got caught in a monsoon a couple of days later and I got to test out the waterproofness of the Mercury jacket and it passed the test with flying colors. There was water at least 1/2" deep running down the highway, worst rain I've ever ridden in by far.

    We did ride some Forest Service roads later in the week though but nothing too technical. Got lots of great pics....

    +1 :ear

    I did the 3-State DS ride a couple weeks ago and I had a similar experience. This jacket (as does my Challenger) just feels solid and so well put together.

    Adventure pants to match please :deal

    I may even break the habit of a lifetime and buy a new pair instead of used :wink:

    Hey Dantegod,

    I''m looking at getting a Montana jacket. I'm almost 6'2" but a slim build at around 180lbs. I have a 38" chest, just measured. Would a size 42 fit me well?

    Thanks,

    They are in the works, but this is a slow process so it will be at least 6 months.. Zodiacs with new reflective piping are in production now.. should ship out in the next few weeks we will probably have in early July..
