Proper Repsol jackets have them built in.
If you don't know what it's for or even what it's called why do you want one - just to look cool ??

I know it's for aerodynamics, but I wasn't sure if it had a "technical" name that would help me find one. My aunt sews for a living, and doing something like this wouldn't be too hard for her, even if she had to remake the whole jacket! And yes, I think it looks pretty cool too

Thanks for the info everyone!

I went into taco bell and there was a guy eating at a booth that was wearing a jacket that had one......he just looked weird and out of place. O, and he had a gixxer so I'm not even sure he was real.
