hey evryone looking for some opinions here.. i have a shift racing leather jacket and an alpinestars textile jacket.. the shift has a removeable vest and the alpine has a removeable liner.. the alpinestars is warmer tho... both jackets have red accents to match my old bike.. i need an all black or black and blue for my 25 r now lol. im a freeze baby tho! what is a good nice leather jacket that looks good and is pretty damn warm but wont be steaming hot in the summer. i dont want some goofy looking winter MC jacket tho. thanks chris
I wear an ICON ARC jacket. It has a removable liner as well. I've worn it all winter long, even when it's gotten below 0 and I've never gotten cold. On a bike however, I'm comfortable until the windchill gets in the negatives and then I just wear a sweatshirt underneath or UnderArmor. And of all things they come with St. Christopher medals, always a nice touch.
Mines all black, which goes excellent with my midnight black scg and flatte black Scorpion EXO-1000. . Why not be fashionable and comfortable?
I love my Buell Bolt jacket. Textile, removable vest liner, nice fit (no flapping, precurved sleeves), good looking venting (only had it in the cold so haven't had a chance to try it out yet) and with my heated jacket liner I'm toasty warm below 20 degrees.
Last I heard, Bumpus (a sponsor) had some in stock. Available initially in black/gray/white and black/blue/white, but I don't know what sizes/colors they may have left.
that icon arc jacket is cool but how it expandsat the bottom to get bigger i need the opposite lol i always have to tighten jackets up..im 5ft 10 and weigh 145.. have about a 30 inch waist and i wanted somethin a little more leather less textile
Just received the scorpion jacket from newenough yesterday. Great value. Very warm w/ the liner. Rode around in sub 40 deg and no need for heated gear. Very good quality med. weight leather. Already soft feel to it and I like the longer length than ordinary sport type jacket. Well worth the price.
Anyone know a good spot to find Tall size jackets? From all my searching it seems Newenough has the best selection of Tall sizes, I'm just hoping there's one I'm missing. Being 6'5" makes it hard to buy jackets, especially buying one without trying it on.
I have a Perforated Icon Accelerant and absolutely love it. Removable liner makes it like wearing a t shirt in the summer, throw a sweatshirt under it and I can tackle 20 degree Wisconsin weather no problem.
looking for riding gear? Ebay is your friend! I got a steal of a deal on Ebay last year. A Buell jacket and pants set. Just look around, you'll find something.
