Tourmaster Flex Jacket

I am thinking of getting a Tourmaster Flex jacket. It seems like a lot of jacket for the money. For reference, I ride an RT and live in NW PA.

Does anyone currently have one? Do you like it?
 
I don't know about the Flex jacket, but I purchsed a Tourmaster Transition jacket this fall. I have ridden down into the 20s and have been warm just wearing a long sleve t-shirt underneath. The only fault is my neck ets a little chilly. Solved tehis by wearing a turtle neck shirt. The Transition jacket is cheaper. I haven't ridden in teh rain yet, bit it is suposed to be waterproof.

I got one several months ago and am very pleased. With an insulated liner and an additional waterproof liner it is plenty warm for my needs. It's very functional and the red color really stands out. For the money, it's a great buy. The sizes seem to run a little small. I had to get one size larger.

Easy :german
 
Bought one last summer when I got back into motorcycling and I love it. With both liners in it's pretty warm (I didn't need electrics at around 40 degrees; any lower and I probably would have). With all the liners out and the panels zipped off it's pretty cool in the summer. There are a LOT of zippers though, but I'm getting faster and faster taking them off and putting them on.
 
My neighbor wore his Flex jacket all last riding season and likes it. He rode a RT and also lives in NW Pa. Well made versitale stuff. I bought a Transition which probably won't be as cool but I liked the longer lenght.
