has this happened to anyone else.got a new sg3 jacket a few weeks ago to replace my sg2
after a spin today i got home to find my waist area and under both arms soaked.
this never happened with my sg2
going to get on to my dealer on tuesday and see what the story,in was told that as this jacket is a free replacement for a faulty sg2 and the warranty is from the day you buy the first jacket.
in that case it would be 3 months over 2 years since i bought the first jacket
how am i fixed if the jacket is faulty
 
Just wondering if the underarm ventilation zips were undone ...
 
If it comes to it, there's the Gore-Tex Guarantee - http://www.gore-tex.co.uk/remote/Sa...SEO&cid=1148660786071&pagename=SessionWrapper

However, I'd first want to establish that the water isn't finding its way down your neck via the collar or as said above, via an open zip. The other consideration is what you were wearing under the jacket at the time. Breathable membranes, including Gore-Tex work best when you set up a temperature & pressure differential across the barrier. That's assisted by wearing wicking fabrics underneath the jacket. Cotton doesn't work in these circumstances.
