Well I was on a road trip thru the White Mountains of NH and decided my unvented black leather jacket is not a great touring jacket. So I stopped at Whitehorse Gear and picked up a Tourmaster Transition Series 2 jacket.
First impressions are that it is a much better touring jacket than my leather. Vent system seems to work well and there are lots of size adjusters to get the jacket to fit just right. It is supposed to be waterproof, has a full vent system, full liner for cold weather and lots of pockets.
I know it is not a top of the line jacket but I think it has pleanty of bang for the buck.
