Which heated jacket liner?

[LiquidLAN]

I went for the Keis mainly as I hate having too much clothing around my neck. And if it's raining, unless it's tucked out of the way or covered, will IMO act like a sponge. Pity as on some days, having the heat in the arms would be nice.

everyone's different, but I'm riding a 12GSA and I wear a Rukka Strong Jacket, it's all a bit snugg with the Giali on, but the collar remains under the Rukka collar - I can't roll it down as that's just not comfortable for me - I've ridden in all sorts of sh!t, including the massive down pours last April on the way back from Assen and I've not had a problem like that, or at least not that I've noticed.

It might be an issue with a lower screen...

JP, sorry for the delay in getting back to you; yes, as you've found out, you are right the liner can be worn seperately - hopefully the silver insultation stays with the liner and not the fleece.

I've been told that the new jacket comes with pop-apart connectors which is also an improvement and I've bust one of mine after a low speed tumble off the bike.

Good luck with the purchase, let us know how you get on

Sizing wise, I've got a 54 Rukka Strong jacket (44" Chest) and a Large Giali - don't know if that helps at all

Putting the record straight

I would have said get a Gerbing because it has a heated collar and it heats your arms too

But that was before it stopped working right in the middle of the cold snap over Christmas

The good news is that Gerbing gear has a full life-time guarantee

Yes, my Gerbing heated jacket packed up as mentioned...............




BUT........... I posted it back to Gerbing on Friday afternoon, (16th. January), and yesterday, Wednesday 21st. January, I received a brand new, latest model of Gerbing's heated jacket.

I must admit, this latest version is vastly superior to the older one that I had previously.

Well done Gerbing for excellent service

Klan arrived this morning.

As I suspected the fit is a bit 'neat' in the shoulders and arms. I love those Italian clothing guys...

Fleece is nice quality too, although to big to fit under my outer jacket, so wearing layers and the outer jacket insulation.

Ben out for a good few hours and find the heater works perfectly. Its definately 'porridge' (just right).

Wiring is a bit erm, basic and I'll be doing something a bit nicer with the switch, but on the whole.....nice!

I had a Gerbing and later bought a Warm & Safe jacket.

Liked them so much better that I started to sell them in my webstore:

Extra's that are nice:
* fleece line heated collar, very comfortable
* zippered hand pockets
* zippered pockets for extra connectors (gloves & pants)
* stowing pouch included

Cheers,
