Those are some sharp jackets! I think any of them would fit the bill. I kind of like the 3rd Icon jacket, the one with the extra armor... sounds interesting! And +1000 on NewEnough, they have great customer service & return policy, if something doesn't fit.

these guys ^ (youtube username sportbiketrackgear) have a lot of videos of products that they sell. A quick little search of their videos can yield you a lot of information.

Jessie, I like that Teknic Inferno Leather Jacket you linked to, I just wish they had it in my size (that's the problem for me with almost ALL MC jackets, since I am 6'2'' and almost 400 lbs.)

I wear this jacket right here

It's expensive and heavy, but it's perforated and comes with a windproof liner. I need something that I can wear year round and offers superior protection. Plus it's a jacket that will look good with any bike, which was another concern. I'm looking to upgrade bikes next year, so I wanted a nice jacket that would go with any bike I purchased.
