Instead of a jacket...

Believe me guys i am very concern about safety especially since i ride a 07 GSXR 1000 and that is the reason i came to the forum to get more constructive input in order to make an informed decision.

Its just that when you get stuck in traffic at 5 pm and it's a 102 degrees every little bit of cooling make a difference.

Both of them look like some good quality pieces for what they are. I have never had eszpererince with ehter but if you do it, write a review. I think Icon or A-stars has a piece that is kinda the same on motorcycle-superstore.

I have a mesh JR jacket.
Wearing that is cooler than wearing just a tshirt.
my .02

Truth.

I've seen guys wearing rigs like that... I dunno though, I'd be worried about it sliding around if I went down... At least with a jacket if the armor slides, you still have some protection...

as far as protection goes, i wouldnt trust that shit. plus you'd look like the fucking road warrior and somebody might throw a spear through your chest.

My last track day in Vegas, it was 100+ and I was in a 1-peice. When I was riding street during the summer, it'd be 100+. Still in my 1-peice. It's not that bad when you're moving. I'd just suck it up.

With the design behind that item... you might as well just get a perforated leather jacket thing looks like a jacket as it is
