good but and good fit
I ride on the road and off road with my Yammie xt250. The removable liner is wonderful if it starts to rain. Offers some protection while on or off road. Very good buy for the money. Well thought out and very well made.

yamaha mesh jacket review
This is an excellent jacket for hot summer weather, I can wear it comfortably with a t shirt all day. The liner is useful on cool evenings or cooler weather. all the pads are perfectly located although I will probably upgrade the spine pad to the CE version. It would be nice to have this option when I purchased the jacket.

Very "Cool"!
I bought this particular jacket for several reasons: It's a Joe Rocket, It's a Champion Scheme (I Ride an R1 Champion Edition), it gets up to 100 degrees here (So Cal) in summer and this is a mesh jacket, and it has armored elbows, shoulders, back. I also wear a Phoenix jacket for dirt riding because of the mesh. They are similar mesh products; really good air flow. So far this jacket is perfect for protection and comfort blending. I know leather would give me more protection, but in the summer, I'd probably sweat to death. I still Feel VERY protected wearing this jacket and will just put the lining back in when it gets cooler. I would say to anyone considering this jacket, it is definitely a cost/benefit winner. Looks Great, fits great, protects great, very comfortable.

Great summer jacket
It gets very hot and humid in Tennessee, and I never quite feel right riding when wearing a t-shirt. So I bought this jacket. It is very light and typical of other Joe Rocket jackets I own - that is to say, very well finished and very good quality. I like that it comes with a liner - just in case I ever need it. For now, though I really like this jacket in the heat - it's not as cool as a t-shirt, but it gets worn when hot so I have the added protection I like. It has loops that hook to your belt, so even though it is very light it doesn't blow up your back at highway speeds. Its details like this that make this one that will get worn, and a good overall value.

The jacket fits and looks great especially since the color matches perfectly with my blue 2007 R1!!
