A jacket that accepts chest protectors and tech air ready putting safety up enough to consider it as a good jacket. BUT, why is it so hard to place a zipper so we can match with a pair of pants. This is so hard to find summer jackets with zippers for pants (apart from leather equipment)

I am looking for the most protective mesh jscket for sport riding Class a or aa Confused between tgp plus r v3 and the rest Will upgrade to lv2 armour anyway Any recommendations?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

If protection is the most important factor for you I would recommend going with leather over textile. Moving on to the armor IMO a jacket equipped with Level 1 armor is more than sufficient. All of the race suits we are riding in and have ridden in (crashed in as well) all have level 1 armor in them, each time I felt the armor did its job very well. - Van

How os the jacket in cold weather?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

You would need to use some sort of base/mid layer to stay warm in the cooler temps. - Van

[@daveshere9969]

How’s this jacket in the rain ?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

It is well vented so you will get wet in the rain. - Van

Which chest protector goes in here?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Alpinestars Nucleon Flex Pro Ci Chest Inserts www.sportbiketrackgear.com/alpinestars-nucleon-flex-pro-ci-chest-inserts/

[@1990-t1j]

Looks a bit tight under the arm. Van Minor probably likes that.

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Max prefers his gear to fit a little tighter. - Van

[@nolan4727]

I can’t seem to find the slot for the chest protector

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Open the jacket and find the zipper at the bottom of the jacket on the inside. Unzip this and slide your hand in between the inner mesh liner and the outer shell of the jacket to find the pocket for the chest inserts. - Van

Alpinestars T-SPS Air vs AST-1 V2 Air

[@sportbiketrackgear]

The SPS is a waterproof jacket and the AST-1 is a heavily vented mesh so they are very different jackets. IMO both are excellent, just very different. If you want a nice hot weather jacket option to compare to take a look at the Alpinestars T SP X Superair Jacket. Here is a link to that jacket on our site: www.sportbiketrackgear.com/alpinestars-t-sp-x-superair-jacket/

[@galtisemistakeyt5443]

@@sportbiketrackgear Sorry for so many questions but I am having a hard time in selecting between these two in terms of quality Alpinestars AST V2 Air or Alpinestars T-GP Plus R V3 Air?? which is better in terms of quality?

[@embxr0872]

damn 5’11 and he’s wearing a small there’s no chance at 5’6 it would fit me unfortunate

[@sportbiketrackgear]

The sleeves and the body of the jacket will be a little longer on you than on Max but I am sure you would still get a good fit from this jacket if your weight is similar. - Van

[@MirzaInkiad]

What’s the difference between this ast air v2 and Alpinestars TGP X super air?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

End of the day these jackets are pretty similar. Go with the one you like the look of the most as they are both excellent. - Van
