Joe Rocket Phoenix Jacket

Post by Terry »

Is it worth it, for summer riding? I hear that it doesn't have a removable liner but does have vents, is lightweight, and has armor on the back, elbows and shoulders. Retails most places for 139.99 but I can get one for 89.99. I wonder if the Joe Rocket (badging) is removable? Anyone have experience with the Phoenix?

I purchased a Joe Rocket Meteor 3.0, and I am :D with it, and will likely purchase a Phoenix for summer riding. Badges are stitched. The elbow armor is somewhat annoying (I feel too restricted, so they stay home :lol: )

My jacket (Meteor) fits comfortably :D

I tried on a "Phoenix" at a local bike show, and thought it would be great, for hot weather scootering.

Your price sounds great, is it through the net?

SS, go to ebay and punch in joe rocket phoenix jacket. Look for the seller, motoxoutlet. XLs or smaller are only 69.99. They seem to have all color combos. A cyber-friend in Arizona highly recommends them for HOT riding conditions. Guess I'll get one... :)

Well, I ordered one and paid thru paypal. It arrived in three days!!! MotoXoutlet is OK in my book. The (armor) will take some getting used to but that's why I bought one. I usually just rode w/o a jacket when its hot but I've always wanted some protection too and now I have some.
