Got my FXRG Jacket off ebay. $495.00 delivered for the 09 model. Saved $160 plus tax. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NWT-2...4506.m20.l1116

I ordered one from NewRoc last year as well. Great price as well, I believe it was 450.00 but that was for an 08. Good folks to deal with. I had warranty issue with a snap coming off the collar and they took care of sending me a new jacket after sending the original back in.

China. Just had to throw that in there, since thats where they come from. Check out Fox Creek Leathers.

This is true. But these jackets are in a class of their own, compared to other H-D jackets. My brother has a Fox Creek, and he tried my FXRG on and was very impressed. Let's face it, half the crap the dealers sell as "accessories" for our bikes is made in China/Taiwan........

Yeah I thought about this, but I looked at this jacket in the dealer, and I have to say It's a hell of a jacket. Now that I own one I have to say that it was money well spent. I look at it this way, I purchased it from a dealer, the employees are American, so I'm keeping an American employed. It's still a nice azz jacket.

I ordered a set of chaps from them that just came on Saturday. I am pretty disappointed with the quality of them. I really feel like you get what you pay for especially when I look at the snaps and zippers on them. I looked at the Harley dealer yesterday at their "stock" chaps and they seem like a MUCH better quality item. I think I am gonna send the leatherup chaps back and just buy the HD's. They will not be that much more money when I get my 20% discount at the dealer.

I bought the FXRG jacket and it is the best jacket i own. I was told if you are buying it to ride don't buy the leather FXRG, the material one is much better.
