i'm the same dimensions as you, and i had a honda race leather jacket size 44 that was too large and got a large gericke mesh jacket that fit well. i would say size 22 for most jackets or large depending on the brand

i don't know how moto jackets work, but im guessing they use the same measurement. I wear a size 42 to 44 in my shoulders... forgot which one. I don't consider myself skinny. I'm 5'10" and 185 lbs with a 34 to 36 waist. You can get an idea, but best bet is to go to a store, and try some on.

Icon!! - Titanium- large fits perfect so i can put a sweatshirt in the winter under it, and in the summer its loose, but not that loose..

im 6'1', 165lb and wear medium- large hanes shirts, depending on my mood... I dont know dimensions, so i suppose everyone has hanes or fruit of the loom shirts right? lol..

you need to get measured... find a tape measure and measure your chest (AKA sizing method), arm length and waist. Beware of jackets that aren't american you will have to find the equivalency chart for that brand. FYI EURO and JAP brands run small as us Americanos are chubs
