There was a Long Weekend, Indian Motorcycle Riders Group, and Riding In The Heat!

[@dropbearmoto]

Congrats on getting IMRG in Savannah up and running again! Look forward to riding together in SE Region events! Vest a great idea, we had massive temps on our trip to Sturgis last month and even a cooling towel around the neck made a huge difference - the wet was good, maybe on skin around the neck only! 🤘

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Thanks, I've been checking out your videos. That's fantastic that you guys put on that big of a ride hopefully our IMRG will be doing the same...if not I know who to tag along with LOL. Yeah, I didn't like the wet feeling from the vest... there has to be a better way???

[@dropbearmoto]

@@FinesseTheChallenger for sure! Cooling towel around the neck worked!

[@RidingandWrenching]

Riding in hot weather can be BRUTAL! Anything that makes you feel a little cooler on a long hot day, should help.

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

100% Cue... I just don't like the wet feeling of the vest it's just a bit too much for me lol.

[@truindianrider7542]

Thanks for taking the Lead

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Yessir, thanks

[@tamermostafa8422]

Congratulations from IMRG Egypt 🇪🇬 ✌️✌️ have fun and great video as always

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Aye, I lived in Cairo for a couple years! That's fantastic you have an IMRG out there...I appreciate the support!!

[@tamermostafa8422]

@@FinesseTheChallenger yea we have Indian Motorcycle in Egypt for 2 years now, its growing slowly but still going in the right direction, i am the president of imrg egypt chapter and its been a year almost a year now. So you lived here n Cairo for 2 years hope it was good and maybe see you here again ✌️✌️good lick once again ✌️

[@moto_cal_]

Our first Chapters Tour it was hottt when we got to Hells Gate Indian (fitting right) and they had a few cooling vests, I think they pretty much sold out 😆 if you can get em soaked good and during the ride in the day they make a big comfort feeling difference. Also congrats on getting the Chapter going Prez! Some of the most rewarding hard work an Indian Motorcycle owner will take on.

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

I appreciate it! Yeah, for whatever reason that day was just the hottest day of the season so far. Maybe it was just a fluke, we went out today and no issues... then again we did get rained on too LOL

[@Sonja-vq5he]

Great video and good luck with the IMRG.

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Thanks, and I am really excited to get this thing rolling.

[@Ridingfish]

People's People's people!! Another great one!!! Happy 4th!

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Pfft, man I'm out here just trying to make it happen LOL. Looks like you had a good 4th as well based on your last video... still doing clean up eh? LOL

[@Ridingfish]

@@FinesseTheChallenger haha my 4th was very good!!! 14 hour party and literally had like 18 kids running wild.. good times

[@arnoldfarrar]

My man, congratulations on becoming president and continued success on your channel. It was because of your channel it inspired me to purchase the 2024 version of that motorcycle in that particular color...

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Thank you! I appreciate you supporting the channel... Congratulations on your Pursuit and I am glad that I was able to assist you or provide you with information on making your decision. That is what makes all this worth the effort, Thank You! I also see that you are a Cowboys fan, ME TOO!

[@arnoldfarrar]

@FinesseTheChallenger Oh yeah, brother ☆

[@kevintatum2200]

Nice informative video. I still will probably get one and try it out.

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Kev! Yupper check it out and let me know how it goes.

[@JoJoCruisinOn2s]

You might have to add cup holders to the bikes to keep cool. I added the Ciro Big Ass Cup holder on my Indian Challenger because living in San Antonio TX can be brutal without a cold drink near you! 😂 great video!

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Oh heck ya, we have the same cup holders... I was just hoping the vests would do better than what they did.

[@MarcusTurner-b6e]

Nice video keep up the good work

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Appreciate you!

[@bikerinbeta]

great video man that Elite looks so pretty in the background

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Yeah, Mrs. Finesse is riding in style LOL... I'm not jealous at all.

[@chrishunter5041]

Cooling riding gear is not needed this side of the pond "not this year🤬" Good luck with the IMRI Chapter👍

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Yeah, this summer is hotter than I remember from last year, and thanks!

[@gix40]

Well done, Finesse. I ride with one of those cooling vests from time to time. Yeah, you will be wet for sure. I ride an hour plus from work. I take 2 cold water bottles and a gallon ziplock bag , which I keep my vest during the day. Pour both water bottles in the vest and squeeze the vest to help absorb the water. It should hold most of the water and not drip all over the place. You will get that true cooling feeling of cold ac. I wear it under my mesh jacket. Product good not bad. Well done, honest review of the vest. Keep riding and enjoy.

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Ah that is awesome, I had not thought about using it as an underlayer maybe that is the piece of the puzzle that was missing. Ugh now more research needs to be done...thanks LOL. Seriously though, I'll have to try that out.

[@nelsongn9]

What’s good sir… Salute 🫡

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Wuddup, Wuddup! Thanks for checking in!

[@MaxJW-ln4xm]

Yep riding in anything over 85 - 90 degrees is rough, especially on an air/oil cooled bike. Anything would help, but am I going to spend $50 on it ? Don't think so .....

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Well since our bikes are fully liquid cooled we didn't completely cook and yeah, spend that cash on something else lol... the search continues!

[@terrysweat4204]

great vid Sir. It's just HOT out period... lol...

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Hey Terry!!! Absolutely! It's hot, we almost didn't go but when the homie calls we roll out!

[@richardclarke8117]

Thanks for the review video. I was contemplating getting a cooling vest but hesitated for the same reason you don’t recommend it. Don’t think putting on a wet shirt to go riding in the heat is appealing to me. Still thinking about it though. Prevention of over heating is a good point. Still thinking about it

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Yeah, I really would have been curious to know how Mrs. Finesse would have felt if she had it on during the St. Simons run... She was not doing well after that ride so we may do another test the next time we take a longer ride.

[@shermanjack7251]

Facts let’s try some ice water for 24” hours

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Ima try my house until the afternoon LMAO

[@kman-mi7su]

I just wear my mesh and make sure I have my hydrapeak water bottle

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Yeah I think the mesh jacket and a drink in my cupholder is the way to go!

[@kidstreetdavis4949]

What handlebars you have on your bike

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

I have the Folsom Prison +8 handlebars from Tab Performance, here is the video I did on them... kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3vSeKCwZcZgo7s

[@williehyde431]

They sell the same thing at cycle gear

[@FinesseTheChallenger]

Word, I think I'm done with those vests I might just start riding at night LOL

[@woodjr.3771]
