Finding my 1st motorcycle jacket (help please)
 

My first superbike is a 97 CBR F3. All Red. To celebrate I want to find a motorcycle jacket that matches my bike. Also so I don't get skinned alive when I fall.

Been searching but I cannot find anything that is mostly red in color, hug your body tight fit, and just plain cool.

The best thing I have found is a red Icon Accelerant Jacket Full Leather for $380.

Could someone make some reccomendations? Pictures would be great. Thanks!

Fitting your body is mainly a matter of sizing, may take some trial and error. Leather should fit like a second skin, it'll loosen up after a few wearings.

A* has alot of red jackets

Yeah anybody Italian should- Sidi, Dainese, etc.

Oddly enough I've been seeing some decent black castle jackets around lately, they sell them at the honda dealers around here. huh, castle, whoda thunkit. If you want a nice textile check out the scorpions, the hat trick is nice. My next jacket is going to be a scorpion stinger. For some reason just love that jacket. You didn't specify if you wanted leather or textile, obviously enough leathers nicer but spendier. And yeah the A* 's are ok, but played out some, everyone and his cousin owns one. Sidi and dainese are damned expensive, but they are nice.

wow thank you so much. holy cow I dont know what to say but thank you again for taking the time real good looking choices!

please more recommendations!

Tecknic, Joe Rocket, Field Sheer, Shift.

AWWW ELFING! the ones I want most are the most expensive! I love the spidi jacket but $500?!

Trust me, I feel your pain! :p

Welcome to the Wonderful World of Protective Gear. That being said, I ***LOVE*** my $380 Shift jacket. It fits absolutly perfectly, the venting is awesome, and it somehow manages to be warm when its cold and cool when its warm. It's also taken two falls to the left side so far, and never cracked an armor plate. I'm also still finding an average of two mroe hidden pockets a day. ;)
