I've been looking for this kind of product for a while. I bought a cheaper version and hated it. This one hit the mark. It fits well and looks well. The armor is in the right places, it's not too difficult to put-on. I wore it on a very hot three day trip. I just wore a shirt over the garment, then gave up and wore it without a cover. The mesh parts allowed for lots of airflow, the chest protector didn't. I felt well protected, hopefully I won't test its bionic capabilities. I won't go riding without this jacket.

Awesome Product
Been wearing this on hot days with a t-shirt or in the rain with a waterproof jacket overtop. Ventilates almost as well as just a T-shirt but I feel really well protected. Haven't hit the ground yet so I have no idea how it will do from 60 to zero on the ground but It feels like I will come out ok. The pads are in the right places. It is sized small so lean towards the larger size and the cut is also for an athletic build. Well built and having the CE armor on makes me feel a lot better about buzzing through downtown traffic on the Ducati.

Alpinestars - Bionic 2 Protection Jacket
I would have loved to keep this, but it didn't fit (not even close). I ordered the largest one they had, which shows to fit guys my size, but it was WAAAAAY too small. I'm 6' 220lbs, and I couldn't even get this to zip all the way up. Too bad, it looked like a very well made rig. I ended up getting an EVS rig in a 4XL, which is ridiculous since I usually wear a L or XL in shirts. Go figure...
