So, I've upgraded by old and worn Pro Series Jacket, (See Avatar) which has served me well, and have upgraded to the Tractech Evo. But, I'm not a lover of the cuff velcro, or the enormous shoulder protectors. I look like a power ranger on steroids. But, its comfortable, and has been rubbed down with leather softener. http://www.twowheel.co.uk/images/detailed/61/RST-TRACTECH-EVO-2-JACKET-BLACK-3.jpg The other offerings RST are marketing, don't really do it for me, so it was this one or mess around with adding zips to other jackets to fit with my jeans. Just need to ride in it to see how it goes.
I got one of these last year and have to say it is a well comfy jacket. I'm sure you'll soon get over the shoulder pads. I actually quite like the cuffs velcro, I guess it's what your used to.
Good looking jacket, I had RST leathers before my AS's (Blade) they were comfy and reasonably priced.
Really fancy that jacket and jeans to match but can't justify spending the money as my old RST rift 2 piece leathers still look great and very comfy Think they're kit is great quality and value for the price,got the ventilator 2 piece textiles for touring last year and love them.
Same here Ross. I have the textile kit too. It is superb. RST kit is pretty decent. I've been off in it, on track days and its held up brilliantly. But, just need to get over the big joan collins 1980's shoulder pads, and I'm sure it'll be nice.
Update - Jacket is going back. Can't get my gloves on over the cuffs. They're too loose and when I've forced the gloves on, I can't do up the velcro. I mean, who tries on a jacket with gloves, when shopping?? Back protector yes, but never gloves....But I've found hopefully an alternative, and all being well, I'll have my new one in a day or 2.
