Well it was'nt as cold as I thought but 41 deg is a good test. I won't print how fast I was going, but lets say it was at Hoist speed on rt 95 , no one on the road and flyin. I felt as warm & comfortable as I would be sitting on the beach
in Jamaica. And scince I've had it off my extremites are still toasty.................... :2vrolijk_21:

Now youze got me looking at this heated stuff too! I get cold now being on this Coumadin crap. So I just checked Gerbing's site and they show 2 different jacket liners. One's the "Signature Series". The other is the regular one. Both the same price. The Sig Series sounds better. What's the story there? Anything different or a gimmick? :nixweiss:

Howie, the main difference is the "Fleece lined pockets and collar" vs "Silky soft micro denier collar".  The Fleece is much more comfortable IMO. :2vrolijk_21:

Glad it kept ya toasty Rich! :2vrolijk_21:

Time to try a jacket liner first with the gloves I already have (unless they trade mine for new ones). Since Fred recommends it, and since I'm a sucker for Limited Edition crap, I think I'll order the Grey Sig Series one! ;)

Most likely, you'll hang your fairing on it (if you had one)..    :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2:

HeHe!!! :2vrolijk_21:

Limited sizes with the Sig Series. My arm length is just shy in my chest size available in the Sig Series. The regular model has various sleeve lenghts with each chest size. I think the "Limited" stands for limited sizes! ??? ;)

Hmmm... Interesting phone exchange with Gerbing. Not nice people at all. Just wanna quote policy instead of listening to a customer's problem. We'll be happy to transfer you to our supervisor, and after 10 min on hold, went directly to someone's VM, and never returned the call either. Was very turned off by the whole thing. No wonder they're in bed with HD. Same mentality. If something changes by some miracle, I'll update this as necessary. But for now, I'm done with them. Time to look at Tourmaster stuff now. FTG!!! ;)

That's unfortunate Howie.  Have to wonder if you caught someone on a bad day or if they're move to their new facility has worked to make them too big for their proverbial breeches?  Wonder this because it's not the way the company has behaved previously.  I and a few others here have had pretty good luck with them getting gloves redone and a few other issues I can remember being recounted.

Spoke to one woman, who passed me off to CS, who then said I'd need to speak to a supervisor. She said she'd go over and talk to that person and transfer me to them. 10 min later, VM, and no return call. Welcome to HD customer service all over again! I'd rather freeze my ass off, than do business with people like that! I NEED my HD so I put up with their BS. But I don't need Gerbing at all, and they can kiss my ass!!! And due to their handling of this the way they did, 6700 other CVO riders also now know this. Short-sighted people and the power of the internet can really hurt a business! FTG!!! ;D ;)

Sorry to hear of your trouble Howie, I've never dealt with them on the phone just in person and they were great to  deal with.

Gerbing has been a great outfit , but as they have grown they are starting to have things made out of contry and it is causing problems. There controllers are now china made and not what they used to be. Some time when you get a chance look into Firstgear , Very high quality and not a bad price . Just a suggestion.
