I have the Joe Rocket CBR Leather jacket & I love it (Red/Black/White)

Fitment is perfect & looks sweet too....I love it


The TZ1 looks alright in the front, but the back of the jacket looks very boring.

The other jacket I considered buying before I got the CBR jacket was the Alpinestars Spinner jacket. Nice looking jacket. My brother just got one and it's actually really nice. The only crappy part is the sizing is in S,M,L,XL,XXL.......so you don't get a perfect fit as opposed to other sizing i.e. 42,44,46,48....
And at the time I couldn't find a local shop (in February/March) that even had the jackets yet to try them on.
