The helmet itself is nice, and got here very quickly. The finish isn't as durable as I had thought. It fell from a foot high to the ground, and has a number of nicks and scratches that I wouldn't have expected from a fall onto linoleum. I also had to get a size larger than what I normally wear, and while I like that it doesn't give me hat hair, I'm not sure if it's as protective as it would have been. But that was my choice, since they were out of my size, and I wouldn't recommend anyone to do the same.

I am pleased with the Balaclava. it is just what i needed to cut the wind. I wear a full faced helmet because I wear glasses and the only part exposed to cold and wind is my neck. this solved that problem without being too bulky or tight on my neck. Still didn't solve the problem of my glasses fogging when i am at a stop so I have to crack the front visor a little and put it down once I get moving again. I really should have bought another one so I'd always have one clean for riding.

I have several of the Motley Tube's, rotate them so I always have a clean one to wear when I ride my Springer which has no windshield. The Tube is light weight and can be worn in warm weather which is great on the hot days riding the freeways here in SoCal. Keeps road dirt out of you face and allows you to breath with no restrictions.

LeatherUp price can NOT be beat ... half the price that you find at other sites. Fast delivery and great site to purchase from.

This tube is awesome for desert riding in hot weather. It is thin and doesn't overheat you. I use it to cover my face to keep from burning. It's breatable and works great. I also use one as a head cover and then roll up a bandana and tie it around the tube to keep it on since the tube isn't tight enough to hold on against the wind. The tube is lighter and thinner than the bandana, which helps keep your head cooler. Great for hot weather but I suggest something thicker for cold weather.

I can understand why it got sold out. Absolutely love the Motley Tube. Versatile in how such a simple tube can be worn. With just a bit of a chill I just leave it around my neck. Below 45 I start to cover my face and neck with it. Last week it dipped below freezing; so, I used it to cover my ears, lower face, and neck. Material is so thin I hardly notice a difference when putting my 3/4 helmet on. And it works so well, that I don't even feel the need to bring my helmet inside to keep it warm before riding.

Highly recommend this product. As soon as it is back in stock I'll be ordering one for my wife.

Used this tube when I rode in to work in 40 F weather, the ride takes about 25 minutes where 20 of those minutes were spend riding around 70 mph on the highway to work. I do have to say the tube DID help out and kept my neck and jaw from completely freezing in the cold wind, however my jaw did feel very cold when I arrived. So I would have to say that the tube is good, but it's definitely not made to withstand high speed riding at temperatures below 50 F.
