Pros:
Seems somewhat heavy duty. They look like they can take a beating
3/4 leg waterproof zippers
Reflective stripes
good armor & well placed
removeable liner
built in belt

Cons:
Just like my raingear & jacket, Tourmaster needs to work on their sizing. I bought XL just to have extra room. I got extra room everywhere except the waist.
Not just a Tourmaster problem but waterproof zippers are a freaking pain

Other than the sizing, I don't have any real complaint & they get 8 out of 10.

Now that I have these pants, my motorcycle apparrel collection is complete with the exception of a summer full gauntlet leather glove.

KC-10 FE out...
I wear and am pretty happy with Joe Ballistic 5.0 pants which are fine as an overpant and great for cold to cool weather but I need something that doesn't look too geeky for the summer.

I've been looking at the various jean-types but I really wanted to get a pair that have aromour at the knees and hips and a kevlar threading to make sure they don't disintegrate when they slide.

Can't seem to find that combination anywhere.
