best type of all round jacket with armour for around £100

[conrad1987]

Been looking at armoured jackets and not sure what to go for i only ride a 125 and dont use it much but feel a bit a vunerable wearing just a normal jacket or hoodie if i come off there not going to protect me much.

Was just wondering what you guys would recomend
cheers

[P.]

Could probably pick one up for a good price being the manager of a car factors.

[conrad1987]

Yeah thanks for that advice that heally helped me dont see what the problem was only asking some advice because im a newbie to bikes

[i.p.phrealy]

get to a clothing shop and try a few on. decide if you want leather or textiles as each has it's advantages and disadvantages. then choose by what feels best when it's on.

I prefer textile as its lighter and it breathes better, dont really like heavy leather jackets and im only riding a little cbr so i thought it would be a bit overkill leathered up
Seen some rst textiles that don't look too bad and fairly well priced

Missus got one of these > https://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorcycle/textile-jackets/rst-razor-textile-jacket - seems to be decent quality for the £s. Not been out in the wet yet though, so can't comment on that.

Dont under estimate ebay for gear.

I bought a second hand textile jacket thats barely been worn.

retailed at £60.

Bought and delivered for £20.

Shoulder, elbow and back armour, removable thermal layer, good stitching and zips, loads of pockets.

It's a little bit big but thats good, means I can layer up in the cold weather.

So yeah, don't discount ebay all together.

All my gear is off eBay. I got a Wolf leather jacket (retro style apparently) for £40 delivered - NWOT. Saw them in J&S last week and couldn't help but laugh out loud at the fact they were still £250
Oh actually, I get helmets in a shop. Prefer to try them on.

Ebay is good for gear if you look around. I know you want textile, but I got my RST leather jacket £80 new with tags, then a month later the bottoms to fit for £75 new with tags.

I have an rst textile jacket, seems very good quality and can be used all year round... It has a removable thermal inner lining that you can take out and also has airvents you can unzip for when the warmer weather comes.. It also has back, shoulder and elbow armor and comes with a neck bandana thing that zips onto it to keep your neck warm. Its fully waterproof aswel, I paid £120 for it, its called rst raptor jacket.

Don't know if it's any help but i got most of my gear from a guy on E-bay for good prices. He has a shop called Englishbandit Got some great leathers and textiles very cheap. HTH.

I picked up an old season hein gericke goretex touring jacket.. think its name is the Cruise for £20 at the BMF 2 years ago. Its been brilliant, keeps me toast, dry (tested during 10 hour trip to glasgow in a downpour) and has some pretty decent armour in it.

Probably my best buy yet Shame my crappy lidl trousers didnt do so well on that trip. From my waist down was soaking, balls were floating in a pool of water
