Alpinestars Viper v2 Air Jacket Review

[@thematrixhousemusic2242]

Model has an epic pokerface!!! LOL

[@kidlo2050]

Dude taking the Mannequin Challenge too serious.

[@sleepyheadfpv1507]

I just got the tech air 5 and was going to get the 169 textile jacket. But this seems way better for a little more money.

[@shpritzer]

Just bought it today. Great jacket, great ventilation.

[@marcosavarise5031]

agree, I own it too, for summer riding, this is a killer jacket

[@atomic43]

Hello. Which armor do you recommend for the back plate? Alpine stars, D30? Other? Thank you for the always amazing content

[@RevZilla]

Definitely the Alpinestars Nucleon. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-nucleon-back-protector-insert

[@devinlandis1905]

A bit of a specific question but how well does the “bright red” or “fluo red” match the 2019 Honda cbr500r red?? Thanks

[@RevZilla]

Without having both next to each other its hard to say, but I will let you know that it won't match 100%. The color codes are specific to each company so Alpinestars may aim for it to match as much as they can, but also to other red bikes available on the market so they don't pigeon hole themselves. Hope that helps! If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our Gear Geeks at 877.792.9455 or [e-mail]. Ride safe, Pat

[@rishabhsaluja4921]

I just ordered it from Amazon. Can you please suggest me what all protection I need to buy in addition to the jacket now. I'm from India 🇮🇳

[@i_read_bad_reviews]

Which gloves match this red? Alpinestars calls it “bright red” and the only gloves I see from them is the SPX AC V2 GLOVES which don’t even look close to the same color based off pictures.

[@yellowchocolate8539]

What's that lower zipper compartment in the back of the jacket do? I store my windbreaker in there not sure if it's for additional armor.

[@marcosavarise5031]

for the windbreaker

[@MorningStarXitlali]

It also has a sipper on the back bottom that opens a cavity. Is it just a vent zipper?

[@RevZilla]

No - that is how you access all of the armor pockets in Alpinestars jackets. Very unique design feature they all have.

[@MorningStarXitlali]

@@RevZilla awesome. Thank you for the swift reply 👍

[@rogerwilkie8555]

I was hoping the inside zipper around the waist that looks like a pocket with the collar looking flap that also as a zipper. Not sure what it’s for.

[@RynoDinero]

It’s to connect pants to the jacket

[@Hammerman1234567]

What pants are really similar to this jacket?

[@felixcatacutan2171]

Hi RevZilla, can this be paired and attached to Hyper/Gravity Drystar Pants? Thanks

[@evancashman7614]

Revzilla is da best!

[@dylanmoe4320]

I’m confused on the size chart, it goes small medium, to medium large. I got the medium I’m 5’10 , 33 inch waist and i have to double check my chest..is medium for me?

[@RevZilla]

The jacket should be comfortably snug when in the riding position, so it's likely that medium is appropriate. -DrewZilla

[@jackb8830]

Hi, what pants, boots and gloves do you recommend to go with the red and black theme? Riding a CBR so I like the matching scheme. Thanks and great review

[@Bruno-fe4tp]

Does someone got the v3? what are the differences?

[@martinortiz77]

Does it have the back pocket for the back protection?

[@jhoffa45]

So which is better bang for buck: T-Jaws Air or Viper Air?

[@RevZilla]

Both are great options but the Viper v2 Air is a favorite amongst our customers and employees. If you have any other questions or concerns, please reach out to our Gear Geeks at [e-mail] or 877.792.9455. Ride safe, -Pat

[@riza4945]

Can i wear this in the winter with a hoodie beneath at 0 degrees c?

[@RevZilla]

That's really a personal question based on how well you handle cold but for most people, no - that will not be warm enough at speed with just a hoodie underneath.

[@ShivaAvula]

Hi. I got a Benelli 302R (White/Red) in India and am not sure on what Jacket to get. Can you please help. I just do some casual touring during weekends.

[@RevZilla]

The Viper is a good option for casual touring in warm and hot weather. Remember to purchase the compatible Nucleon back protector as well. If you want a jacket with a removable waterproof rain liner, consider the other options below. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-viper-v2-air-jacket *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-nucleon-back-protector-insert *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-amok-air-drystar-jacket

[@VCTomazii]

Please make a review for the Kuryakyn XB Fast saddlebag

[@mihai.tibrea]

@RevZilla, what is the difference between this and the t gp plus air v2?

[@RevZilla]

The Viper uses lighter mesh and textile but still has CE Level 2 armor like the Plus Air v2. -DrewZilla

[@mihai.tibrea]

@@RevZilla which one would be better then ? Or how would you choose between the two ?

[@M1keVazovskiy]

@@RevZilla why alpinestars site says that it has only Level 1 CE-certified Bio Armor shoulder and elbow protectors? are you sure that it has leve 2?

[@mrm.2540]

So this one is better for hotter days, sad that only 2versions od colour..

[@tankereu4557]

No mesh on arms ?

[@TheLegendaryLoso]

200$ jacket with no back armor?

[@ghazalibugo3043]

thank you for the information

[@ADRIANRodriguez-kb8mm]

Im 5'9 210 lbs what size should i get?

[@RevZilla]

Use your chest measurement and reference the sizing chart on the product page. Motorcycle jackets use that as the key decider for what will likely fit the best, even for this Viper v2 Air.

[@aliagasergio]

In the video review you mention that the armo is CE level 2 but in the product description is says CE level 1. Which is true?

[@RevZilla]

We double checked a jacket from inventory, and it has the CE Level 2 armor. We'll update the website description. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-viper-v2-air-jacket

[@jazzyjake99]

Does this have pockets for chest protectors as well?

[@RevZilla]

Yes it does. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our Gear Geeks at [e-mail] or 877.792.9455. Ride safe, -Pat

[@jazzyjake99]

RevZilla Thanks Pat.

[@Ty4ever]

Bought this, where are the chest protector pockets? Not seeing them, thanks

[@michivanhalen7086]

Which ce rating does it have? AA?

[@patrickmchugh8039]

This jacket launched in 2019, before the new 2020 standards of abrasion went into effect. So I don't believe this one is on the A, AA scale spectrum as they would need to change the name in order to meet the EU's regulations on that. Every brand has until 2023 to meet the compliance on their lines.

[@freakasound]

i have this jacket and i don’t see any pockets for the chest armor?

[@larryavilez8060]

Would you be able to add a chest protector also?

[@onestupidperson8354]

ive got the jacket, doesnt have any pouches in the chest area for inserts.

[@kylenieb4946]

@@onestupidperson8354 Yes it does, you have to go behind the liner to insert them.

[@onestupidperson8354]

Kyle Nieb you’re right, a bit tricky to find but they’re there. Thanks

[@Nayper905]

I have it too

[@inpulse9821]

Is it in usd or what?

[@RevZilla]

Yes, since we are a US company all of our prices in videos are in USD. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our Gear Geeks at [e-mail] or 877.792.9455. Ride safe, -Pat
