under armour for Harley riders?

I ride a 110 cubic inch road king with dual exhaust. The bike creates an enourmous amount of heat. It is an understatement to suggest i got a tropical rain forest in my wranglers. I dont likes to brag but I am a popular man with the ladies. This excessive sweaty nether region really turns the ladies off. Will under armour breifs help

    All harley motors, with the exception of the porsche designed VROD motor are air cooled. This means that the only thing cooling the motor is the wind generated by riding the bike. Unfortunately, the hot air cooling the motor is blown directly into the thighs of the rider. A few years ago harley "fixed" this by shutting down the rear cylinder when the bike is stationary. This will be the case for all harleys (except the vrod) due to the nature of being air cooled.

    Wearing under armor may help a little, but you will not see a significant change until you get a bike with a modern cooling system. See Victory's oil/air cooled system, Honda, yamaha, and kawasaki's water cooled system, and Indian's oil/air cooled system.

    Good luck and remember the gold bond!
