Sick of my ride pants: FirstGear TPS

[rifleshooter]

I have the FirstGear ride overpants, and they're starting to piss me off. They have no external pockets, except one really tight-opening velcro'd muther-humper on the right aft, they're goofy-long, the knee-pads still sit miles low unless I'm scrunched into a full tuck (will have to remember to stay like that if I go down, LOL) and they have The Slidy-Ass condition of knee-and-butt slickness that has me ball-racking the tank every 5 seconds.

I rode with jeans around the block yesterday and couldn't believe how much more control I had over the bike due to me actually sticking to the friggin' saddle.

I want new ride over-pants that prevent against Slidy-Ass and which have knee pads which will actually work.

What do you recommend?

leather…hot as hell but they do stick pretty well to the tank and seat...

Or just get some tank stomp pads like these



I'll never have a bike without them because I love the grip and control they give me

Quit Armorall-ing your seat! ... Chaps?

I have these: http://shopping.scorpionusa.com/C55D...311B53802B9D2E

I don't think they're too slidy but then I grip the tank with my knees. I've had my share of slidy-ass pants before, usually they were the cheap ones, ymmv.

Joe Rocket Ballistic pants

I have had the same pair for about 5 years. Warm, waterproof, comfortable, good ventilation, great pocket.

Motorcycle close outs has shift leathers pants for 200. Skip over pants and just rock something like that.

Check out motogear outlet's final sale man, they may have something cheap there now that they're closing.
