Harley-Davidson FXRG Nylon Jacket Review


Greetings from Chicago, where the winds are blowing, temps are freezing, and we're attempting to keep warm. Good thing Motorcycle.com sent me some gear to keep me toasty while riding, and hopefully you'll be the benefactors of my perilous testing efforts. The player in this test is the Harley-Davidson FXRG Nylon Jacket. It's designed to keep you warm and dry with technology that beats the usual leather gear.

We all seem to be brought into the next generation of technology kicking and screaming and unwilling to let go of 'the good old days.' Those good old days of cold and wet weather riding meant wearing a sweatshirt under your leather jacket, but the leather jacket had more leaks than the Titanic. Hey, you still looked cool, right?

Unfortunately, it got a little too cool when the temperature dropped or the rain fell.

Great Jacket

I bought this jacket last year when I was going away to train with HD.

Here in the UK I was looking for an all round jacket, being it was late October and I was doing the training in Wales, there was a possiblity of rain.

I never used the internal jacket as I got too hot, and for 2 weeks and of which it possibly didnt rain for 2-3 days on of it.

My top half never got wet, it was one hell of a jacket. and with the air vents and protection it felt comfortable and protective if I did come off.

I was going to get the leather option but getting this wet as well would have weighed a ton.

This is a great jacket.

FXRG Nylon Jacket my review



I bought the jacket and pants when I visited my son in Minneapolis MN a few weekends ago. What a rig. Warm, dry, comfortable. I live in northern Michigan. It is already in the 40's in the evening. We had frost the other night. I will be able to ride my bike as long as there is not ice on the road.

Expensive, but definitely high quality. I like these a lot.
