I like mine a lot. I got mine from a motorcycle dealer who was moving them on ebay last summer for $104. It breathes well, has tons of armour and the fit is great. However, I do wish it had a velcro neck closer as a wasp got trapped inside it and stung me repeatedly before I was able to hop off the bike and smash my back against a tree to squish him. By the way, are you a long-time Buffalo resident? I grew up in the Orchard Park-East Aurora area, but live in central PA now. Come on down, the riding's great here! Mark B2 A2 A3

MCN did a review of the Joe Rocket jacket last fall I think it was. They gave it good marks and later I saw some reports to the effect that it did very well in actual crash situations but I don't remember where I saw them. My wife has one and likes it very much. The jacket is well made and passes air extremely well. ~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<> Buster Moldenhauer Tyrone, GA '96 R1100RT - 136,000 & counting - The Bambinator '98 GL1500SE - 66,000 - Champagne Geezer Barge '00 KLR650 - 8,500 - Godzilla, The Ugly Motorcycle IBA Mile Eater Buster@... ~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>~~~<>

I have yet to hear anything bad about the joe rocket phoenix jacket, I absolutely love mine, tons of armor and very very cool,looking and feeling. Cant wait to get the joe rocket pants, just be warned the joe rocket pheonix jackets run big, the gloves run small. Email me if you want the whole story on the sizes Trev A16

I got the 5.10 and it's a perfect fit. Ryan
