Very well done My take on heated gear is the 7v battery powered jacket . That way I can use for other things like Sking , winter hiking and still use for riding . If the Mosko were battery powered I would buy be cause their quality is out standing . Keep up the good work.

[@देवर्षकामत]

Klim dakar.

[@FourIntoOne]

I have ridden in all weathers literally hundreds of thousands of miles. The single biggest best thing that I have done by a huge margin over my 40 year riding "career" was to start using heated gear about 20 years ago. It instantly negates being cold, uncomfortable and therefore unsafe on your motorcycle. Winter weather simply becomes irrelevant (apart from icy roads, obvs) Those that state it's not for them or not manly enough are frankly either deluded, in denial of more likely a bit stupid. It's a total no brainer.

[@DavideGTI86]

Totally agree with you, worth every penny. I feel like people doesn't talk enough of these heated gear 😄, it has been a massive improvement for me and, as you said, i feel way more comfortable and SAFE.

[@BigRockMoto]

agreed

[@davidc1961utube]

You just need to be sure your bike's stator is rated for the load. Pushing a bike with a dead battery will also keep you warm! Not really an issue on a 1000cc street bike, more so for the small thumper dual sport crowd.

Thanks for your review! The one thing I look for if I’m going to replace my heated mid-layer is if it has connectors at the end of the sleeves for heated gloves, it doesn’t look like this has them.

[@VVoltz]

LOL that intro is hilarious. I love how you balance serious reviews and fun on your videos

[@AT2021Rocker]

I have a battery powered vest and it’s one of the best investments I’ve made. I carry two batteries and what I really like is using it as additional warmth in my sleeping bag if I get cold as well as I can use it for almost any activity.

[@BlazerLz]

Thanks a lot for going over the SAE adapter plug! That was the only question I had and it wasn't addressed anywhere else!

[@DavideGTI86]

I personally have a Macna heated jacket wich is the most common brand in Europe and I have to say it is a game changer when riding in cold weather. I recommend to all the riders who ride in sub 10° C to get one and start enjoying riding all year round in total comfort, and if needed, adding a pair of heated gloves and pants.

[@ostell]

Macna CENTRE Jacket? If yes, question- is this jacket warm also without connect to power?

[@DavideGTI86]

@@ostell Yes, Macna Centre, and yes, it has some insulation even with electrical heating off, I removed the mid layer of the motorcycle jacket (mine is Rev'it) and I replaced it with the Macna, and it does the job pretty well, but when you turn on the heating ohhh boy ohh boy it is WARM 🤤

[@3obryans]

Thanks Ian! After years of being miserable and and grudging over the weather from December through March, I just bought this heated jacket to add to my heated gloves and socks collection. So glad you reviewed this jacket!

[@BigRockMoto]

Glad I could help!

[@mikemerrill175]

Originally from the pacific MW, I’ve had gerbings gear since the 90’s. It extended the riding season to nearly year round. Don’t need it so much in SoCal, but never leave on a long trip without it.

[@BigRockMoto]

gerbings is awesome

[@tomg6284]

I have hotwired gear. You are correct, plug in and stay nice and warm.

[@gregorbabic7664]

Heated jackets are the best! Here is a tip…. I soldered the ends of a coax to my trickle charger so now I can quickly charge any of my bikes and they also all have the receiving coax coming from the bike for when I need to plug the jacket or vest into them. Just means you don’t need any adaptor cables.

[@BigRockMoto]

Thanks for the info!

[@billcurnew6020]

It's impossible to overstate the value of heated gear for extended travel. Though I don't use mine very often, each time I do I feel as if the cost was insignificant when compared to the ability to ride comfortably on a day I otherwise may not have been able to ride at all. Last fall, I rode in SW Wyoming for several hours with the temps hovering in the mid 20's (F) and did so in complete comfort. Without the heated gear, there's no way I would have even set out. I've owned Gerbings for many years, but the product you show looks great and should certainly be considered by potential buyers.

[@clvrswine]

I love WY. I go every year (Greys River). I explored South Pass last June. The wind!

[@dandonahue2787]

Nice review, heated gear is a necessity to extend your riding season. Although Mosko makes great quality stuff it’s quite expensive. I’ve had Gerbings gear for many years, good quality. The current Gerbings heated jacket is about $100 less than the Mosko unit. You do have to buy a controller for a nominal cost, but the advantage to the Gerbings is the controller can be worn outside the jacket making adjustment easier than the Mosko unit on the inside. You don’t want to have to open the jacket or stop to change the temperature.

[@adv_dude]

Thanks for the review. Purchased this jacket yesterday. Looking forward to testing soon.

[@michaelskinner896]

@@L--Z I think he's talking about this specific brand and model. Currently there is no battery option from Mosko.

[@RandomGRK]

It’s a great jacket and I love mine but the hips are too snug and I can see you have the same issue. It’s more of a vanity issue and It doesn’t prevent me from wearing it but Mosko admitted they need to fix that issue. Not sure why they didn’t use a draw string method to allow for customized fitting. So many good ideas with Mosko gear with minor execution issues and sizing problems.

[@rackhousemoto]

Yup, they sized this jacket for rail-thin dudes, I had to size up past where I needed to get one that fit me around the hips well.

[@painsrides3616]

I fought using heated gear for decades. When I finally gave in and bought first gloves, then a jacket liner... I kicked myself(multiple times ;) ) for being so stubborn for so long 🤨 Its really the only way to stay riding for extended periods in cold temps.

[@breeno59]

Big Mosko Moto fan … I have an embarrassing amount of their soft luggage … somehow, this thing flew under my radar and I’ve been wanting to pick something up for camping and this thing is perfect. Insta-buy. Great timing for this review, thanks ;)

[@wine_country_moto]

Thx for the review. I was in the camp of “I don’t need that crap”. But what people don’t realize, once you get cold on the bike it takes a very long time to get warmed up. Ruins the evening after a long day of riding.

[@BigRockMoto]

How does the xp-1 fit into the pocket of the jacket? Is that really awkward to walk around with the weight in the pocket, or not too bad?

Damn this is really quite genius. This way you always have the safety net of a heated jacket with you and don't have to bring seperature stuff or leave it at home when you are not sure how the temperatures will be. It would have been interesting to know which zones are getting heated on the jacket.

[@nonsononessunooko4066]

You can, if it has 12v out. One of the anti gravity jump starters does. Xp3. Only about 1 hour use with it tho.

[@bradleygordon5973]

Excellent review! I've been on the fence about plug in gear but you just converted a skeptical rider. Less gear, warmer and it looks good too. Did you have to size up for a protective jacket and what's your favorite?

[@BigRockMoto]

no sizing up, I wear this jacket in a L, my normal size, and it fits great with my normal sized moto jackets

[@MeerkatADV]

Interesting point, the battery plug on these and the Dango Design Quickfire helmet light batteries are the same. So you can run this for about an hour or so while off the bike using the helmet light battery.

[@dwmorrissey]

Wish you’d talked through fit and sizing on this video a bit. I’m short and stocky and worry about the fit-enough so that I reached out Mosko about it last year. To their credit, they forewarned me that they had some sizing issues in the first year’s run (last year) and that the initial run fit super slim. They said they intended to correct that for this current model year.

Hi Ian, I always value your excellent and comprehensive treatment of whatever topic you cover. Therefore I wonder if you have any plans to review the new suzuki 800 de. I currently ride a vstrom 650, which I really enjoy, on specs alone the de seems to address many of the percieved shortcomings of this model, non switchable abs, non adjustable suspension, poor clearance, ordinary off road performance. However I am waiting on a body of real ride reviews before I persue it further.

[@BigRockMoto]

Yes, as soon as possible,

[@nicc26]

Hi Ian! Thanks again for the great content. I know I've commented on another video, but it seems that if you have the right adapter, you could plug it in a battery pack in your pocket and walk around the camp site with the heat on. Am I wrong?

[@j.t.8759]

Quick question Ian...Does the Mosko Moto Ectotherm Jacket fold up into its own stuff sack?

I know the Mosko Moto brand is quality stuff. Does the collar have heating elements in it because that’s the key to staying warm. If the back of your neck is warm your whole body feels warm.

[@j.t.8759]

Another great video Ian. I'm a big Mosko Moto fan myself. Wonderful people, great quality products and phenomenal customer service. Quick question... A Battery Tender typically has a 7.5 amp fuse. Over the years I've melted/blown a couple 7.5 amp fuses with the initial high draw my portable air compressor pulls at start up. I typically replace the 7.5 amp fuse with either a 10 amp or 15 amp fuse, and have had no problems since. Of course, Battery Tenders are fused at 7.5 amps for a reason. If your battery has a bad cell and/or cell issue, you do not want to feed it more than a specified amount of amperage. When using the Battery Tender SAE lead, in conjunction with the COAX adapter you've listed, (great idea, by the way) have you had any issues blowing/melting the standard 7.5 amp Battery Tender fuse when selecting the warmest setting on the Mosko Moto Ectotherm Jacket? Thanks again for the great job you do.

[@BigRockMoto]

I haven't had an issue yet, but a 10A fuse is probably a good idea

[@cloud9847]

My worry about this jacket is that it's ~43watts and draws at 3.4 when the other 'top of the line' heated jackets are almost double that. I want to be able to ride down into temps around zero or lower so I just don't think this jacket would make me happy for the money. That's a shame because I do like the style. I just wish it was more closer to what the other stuff out there is pushing. I'm looking at a Keis premium heated jacket for example.

the heated gear , "Hot Wired" from Cycle Gear is just as good and much more affordable....as in over $100 LESS for the inner jacket

[@MotoXplor]

The hot wired is also bluetooth controllable from your phone and has 10 steps of heat.

hotwired stuff is fine but the mosko works way better as a standalone jacket
