Gerbings electric jacket liner controlled with a Heat Troller.
Held Hawk Kangaroo skin gloves
Magnum Elite combat boots

My opinion on said gear:

I would likely by another HJC helmet, it's been great.

I would buy another Aerostich Roadcrafter in a heartbeat. I've had it for more than a decade, have ridden more that 130,000 miles in it, and crashed twice. It's been simply wonderful. After all that use and abuse, I returned it to the factory for maintenance and repair last year and they fixed it to like-new for $335 (new, it's a $1000 suit with the options I have).

I would buy another Gerbings jacket liner but not their controller. The Heat Troller is superior.

I have already bought my second pair of Held Hawk gloves even though my first are still not worn out after 6 years. They discontinued the model so I snagged a another pair befoe they were gone forever. I have big hands and toruble finding gloves that fit well.

I loved my first pair of Magnum boots, but the second pair has been disappointing. I'll opt for something else when it's time for new boots.
