It's too hot for leather and I found myself riding Saturday with just a tshirt; I simply couldn't wear the jacket in 98 degree weather. So I'm looking at mesh gear.
Harley has a couple of mesh jackets with pockets for "hydration packets" ($40 extra for the hydration packets). Is anyone wearing a Harley mesh jacket; if so, is it bearably cool in summer? And if you've got the hydration packets, do they keep you cooler a long time and are they worth the extra cost? I'm thinking a simple soak of a tshirt in water with the mesh jacket on top would work just as well but maybe not last as long as a "hydration packet" (?)
