My long loved Tecknic is getting a bit past it though served me well for years,Though wont wear anything but leather pants not really after full leather jacket though quite like the look of the combination Cordura/leather (or whatever it is) that there coming out with these days,plenty of pockets/armour/removable liner are a must,whos got what thats any good,not to worried about price as i keep them for years.Only other requirement is it must come in black,and only black thanks am not one for all those fancy colours making you look like a Honda rider.:baby:

Na mate,my old mum hates motorcycles,she would probably put pink ones on so as to stop me using it,funny how she ended up married to a bloke that loved bikes,she works at the 111 call center and freaks out every time she answers a motorcycle related call even today.

Rev'It Ignition Jacket ticks all the boxes.

It has a waterproof liner and separate thermal liner. Waterproof zips.

Textile across back, front and part of arms - about 60% being textile, the rest being leather - so if you remove both waterproof & thermal liners you end up with a fully breathable jacket where the wind just flows right through. Comes in black. Not actually as short as it may appear in the photo, but shorter than a typical touring jacket. Have seen a couple of guys who pull it off quite well. But the panel-heavy robo-cop look may not be the best look for you if you have an unusually enlarged belly area...

as per OP here are his specifications "plenty of pockets/armour/removable liner" and it had to be black. He wasn't asking about number of stitches, leather thickness etc.
Seems to fit the bill.

Nice looking jacket.

What the - new bike - what did you get?

Dennis Hopper had tassels in Easy Rider - he looked cool.

Yes I understood that, I think more people should ask and find out these things, as when the shit hits the fan thats all that will safe ya arse.
$699 It should have everything possible, dont know why they dont tell you.

That Revit jacket is nice. I too like the idea of leather & textile mix.

This is my pick for style

Someone was selling them on tardme (for around $400 from memory) a while back (dunno if they are still) I did some research at the time and found them listed on some of the UK sites. If you want reviews you can google them

Go to page 64 of the 2010 catalogue. Zoom in and read the top of the page. Will save me having to type it out. Everything you need to know.

The ignition carries rev it!'s top of the line waterproof membrane that makes it a fantastic all weather jacket. However on a cold new zealand day a good thermal underneath the jacket (I like merino myself) and a good scarf or similar around the neck would be needed as the jacket is also designed to breathe.

when ur crap first came out it was all extra thick and triple stiched, now its thin and double stiched, why?

[rie]

Ticks all of HIS boxes - I wasn't making any claims as to comparable quality or durability:


not really after full leather jacket...like the look of the combination Cordura/leather......plenty of pockets/armour/removable liner are a must...Only other requirement is it must come in black,and only black...

This isnt about our products, its about another brand, I was interested
but for your information We dont make anything double stitched, triple stitched is the minimum and some products are Quadriple.
Get your facts right and go fuck yourself with your ill informed trolling comments
