    Have had rev-it Sand jacket, and proton pants for a while. Sand jacket was great, but died an abrasive death in a crash (did its job).
    I now have the Rev-it Defender Goretex jacket and pants. Fan-freakin-tastic. The outer layer is treated so it doesn't get waterlogged, and it has independent goretex liners which are guaranteed to keep you dry. Actually guaranteed.
    Very happy.

    Just dont look at the price in NZ.

    It seemed to me at the time, that it was the best on offer, as it had removable quilt liner/waterproof liner and would be a great summer jacket...a prime 3-1 Jacket.
    I thought I was buying a waterproof Jacket...but it is just the liner that is waterproof, not the jacket.
    And the liner is so so at best.
    Well, I have had it back a repair (albeit a small one) and ....when removing the removable liners, some of the plastic domes part company with each other…not really worth the money paid in hindsight. NZ$699 ….AUD$373
    Waterproof?..no not really. All in all it’s a very good summer jacket.

    There is the all new Revit Ignition 2 jacket out now but, I have my sights on another.
    The Revit Phoenix Waterproof Jacket..AUD$386.00

    Sales pitch…
    The PHOENIX jacket offers the same functionalities as the popular IGNITION jacket yet with a sportier cut. Mesh panels on the arms, back, and chest of this ventilated jacket keep you cool in warm weather, while the 3-layer membrane functions as a wind barrier to keep you dry when the rain starts falling.

    I will probably be buying the same problem but won’t be spending as much.
    The big difference is...the Pheonix is a waterproof Jacket.
    The Ignition are a good Jacket, good fit etc, and I have seen a few of them being worn, just not worth the money you pay here in NZ in my opinion.
    I've got a spidi gt and its done well, cost a shit load more, maybe that's the diff mate?
