A) I don't think that's the kind of bike he meant. 2) I too am a cold pansy, I've had both a traditional blazer/overcoat (which btw I think looks both like a dress and a serial killer) and a leather jacket (which minus the wings and epulettes I would wear out). The Leather jacket is FAR warmer. And for those that think no one wears the leather jackets.... FEDEX is making more money than you.. and they seem to think leather is fine, as do LOTS of corporate pilots. Just sayin.
