Cooled motorcycle jacket?
I was just wondering if any of you know of any vest or something that can go under ur jacket to keep you cool on hot day? Also, something to keep your head cool under your helmet (that will actually fit under there). They have electric heated motorcycle gear...do theyhave cooled also? What do you guys use? How does it work? Is there something specifically made for motorcycles?
Thanks in advance for the suggestions.
I found these sites but dunno how the stuff works...

RE: Cooled motorcycle jacket?
The first one you listed would probably work the best, but it also requires that you wear a small tank, kind of like a scuba tank.
If you do track days I don't know how receptive they would be in you wearing what s essentially a metal bomb on your body.
The other ones listed are just like soaking your T-shirt in water anduses natural evaporation to cool you.
(Be cheaper and just as effecive just using a shirt)
I found some specific to motorcycles

Most of the cooling jackets are going to be under garments, meaning there may not be a jacket that protects you and is also a walking air-conditioner.
That's why racers sweat.
You can get perforated leather jackets, vests, and pants, and most of these are acceptable in Track conditions.
If you never go to the track and just ride street, you're open to more opportunities and products.
Just Google for "motorcycle cooling jackets" or something.
HTH...a little.

RE: Cooled motorcycle jacket?
Some of the product you have listed seem pretty nice, but not sure you'd want to wear them
For my, I stop for gatorade every hour or so, and look forward to a cold shower when I get home.
I know that 'cooling vests' were developed for some athletes at the Atlanta games, but I am not sure if this is consumer stuff, or if its really that practical.
Good luck,
