Yeah, I saw this this morning on breakfast tv before I came to work. Ace bit of kit.

I paid £100 for my jacket - lots of padding etc. If one of those cost £200 then I would certainly get one. I have never gone down the cheap route when it comes to motorbike clothing - in fact I squirm at bikers who don't have the correct stuff on. I only have to show them some of my scars.......

I would get one. I normally wear two jackets as well. I have a leather jacket underneath and on top I have either a goretex jacket or my dayglo yellow jacket which tbh keeps me drier than the goretex.
