I normally only ride in leather, have for years..

I recently bought an R-Jays mesh jacket off Ebay. New and really cheap.

Got it from the post office and am going to resell it.

I tried in on and didn't feel that it would give enough protection from the black top abrasion.

Heaps of armour (shoulders, elbows etc) but not the sense of security that I was after. Maybe I am just chicken Puck Puck

JR Blaster 2.0, perforated. Took the back pad out for fit, find it works well as a means of getting air through. Watch for enough fluid intake in the heat due to heat and drying out from air moving by you.
