Cool Change
Harley-Davidson presents the new Triple Vent System in four smart motorcycle jackets
- Style, protection and comfort in any outdoor temperature
- Cleverly placed openings allow adjustable ventilation of the body
When a motorcyclist's right hand itches at the first rays of sunshine, all is still well with the world. But as soon as the mercury threatens to burst in summer and your clothes start to stick to your body when they are damp, the climate under your motorcycle jacket and your concentration in your head start to collapse.
The new Triple Vent System, with which Harley-Davidson is now equipping various motorcycle jackets, promises to provide a remedy. It consists of five separately opening and closing ventilation openings on the front and back, which are held open with press studs and create a pleasant and perfectly adjustable air flow on the upper body if required.
The simple yet effective system works regardless of whether you are sitting on the handlebars or on the pillion. This even applies to trips on fairing-mounted models, as the jackets were designed as part of the elaborate development of the new Electra and Street Glide models.
The ventilation openings are therefore cleverly positioned so that the air flow is used perfectly to cool the body even behind the large Batwing fairing and is not impaired even by a backrest. The lasting side effect of this comfortable feature: Those who feel completely at ease on the bike also ride more safely.
For women, Harley-Davidson offers the Triple Vent System in the new „Eclipse Waterproof Leather Jacket“ (98069-14VW, RRP: from €574) made of medium-weight, waterproof leather in classic black. Men have a choice of three jackets.
The „The Beginnings Leather Jacket“ (98067-14VM, RRP: from €574) with embroidered black graphics and the „Passing Link Leather Jacket“ (98074-14VM, RRP: from €632) with used-look surfaces and embroidered graphics in the golden yellow tone of engine oil are made from medium-weight black leather. The „Innovator Waterproof Functional Jacket“ (98539-14VM; RRP: from €479), which is also black, is made from waterproof 600-denier synthetic fiber material and features a removable inner jacket.
All four Harley-Davidson Triple Vent jackets offer cozy comfort, reliable protection and inimitable style. They have several practical inside and outside pockets, a pleasantly soft lining, stretch pleats in the back and pre-shaped sleeves. High-quality and elaborately processed materials, reflective stripes, panels or piping as well as protector pockets benefit safety.
The „Innovator Waterproof Functional Jacket“ even comes with integrated protectors on the elbows and shoulders. And the strong look with discreet logos and lettering on the chest and back unmistakably identifies the wearer as a fan of the Milwaukee brand.
So if you don't care about the outside temperature and want to look stylish in the Harley-Davidson style, you should pay a visit to your nearest Harley dealer, where you will find the complete clothing line of the US brand, including the new, cleverly ventilated Triple Vent jackets.
