- Is the RST Alpha 5 CE good for hot weather?
- Yes. The large mesh panels move a lot of air, which is its main strength. Expect less warmth in cold weather once the liner is out.
- Does it come with a back protector?
- No. Shoulder and elbow armor are included, but the back protector pocket is empty and the protector is sold separately.
- Is it waterproof?
- It ships with a waterproof liner that keeps rain out. The outer mesh shell itself is not waterproof, so the liner must be fitted.
- How does it fit?
- It runs snug through the chest and shoulders. Riders who layer a hoodie or heated vest underneath usually go one size up.
- How does it compare with a leather jacket?
- It breathes far better and handles rain with its liner, but leather offers more abrasion resistance in a slide.
- What sizes are available?
- It comes in S through 5XL in black or gray, in men's cut.
- Where is the Rst Motorcycle Jacket Alpha 5 CE cheapest?
- At Motoin, for $111.55, as of our latest check.
