    IMHO Coolest jacket EVAH!

    My question, Is it a jacket or an armour suit to go under your leathers etc?
    It looks like a jacket its just that the mesh on the inside of the arm dont look skin saving.

    its invisible, which means I cant see it, so that means it must go under your actual riding jacket.

    It's invisible.... So it could be just about anything a biker wears. When I put my jacket on for a ride I say I'm chucking on my invisibility cloak.

    Undies bro !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    It's a pressure suit. Dirt armour.

    It's an (usually balistic nylon) open web shirt the sole purpose of which is to fit soft armour.

    Too bloody hot.
    Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon

    Agreed, I wear one at speedway and it reeks of B.O. Great protection yea but would need a cooling vest or something as well.
