        No idea mate. New jacket from DSG, maybe that's pretty new to me too. As far as my knowledge goes, they have the new Rage jacket, and that jacket comes in different names such as Anthracite, KTM Orange, blue, black etc. But I have no idea if they have a new jacket out.

        Usually the DSG folks do make it avlbl in their website if they were about to release a new stuff or it may have been already released and they might have not updated on their sites.

        That said, if you're right, then let's wait till it unfolds itself for good.

        Cheers!

        Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
        The girl said, 'NO!'


        And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

          no, its not RAGE for sure...because RAGE was kept exactly behind it..i saw RAGE also..but the guy said...the only advantage RAGE has , is it has that glowing thing more on it..front, back..wheras this jacket which name i forgot dont have much reflectors..only 2 logos at both shoulder...some sign.

                Then I guess it should be a new one. I read in a post somewhere when they launched their DSG pants for the first time that they were working on some other mesh jacket too and we have to wait for some months, maybe this is the one I guess. Let's see.

                    Looking forward for it. And try sharing HD photos or good quality photos of the jacket front back, inside, liner in and liner out as I always ask.

                        • Is there an alternate to purchase DSG products than planetDSG.com? They owners are very irresponsive and their stock availability is not made clear.

                            How about getting from Kochi?

                            Autoqueen, Chammany Tower, Kaloorjn

                            Most people around say that the owner is quite friendly & responsive person

                            BTW, from two of my experiences, if you deal with Planet DSG in Pune, they're not only very responsive, but friendly too

                            • Just came across this: Biking Knee Guard- Set of 2 Pcs-FOX RAPTOR RIDING GEAR | eBay

                              I don't believe in it's genuinity but still, what are all your views?

                              Also, I checked with the Cramster Store here in Mumbai, regarding the Breezer 4.0 and Bionic KneeGuards for which they are quoting 5,450 INR and 1,500 INR respectively. Just wanna know is there any scope of bargaining? I mean how much is the scope? I know some of you will reply that it depends on my bargaining skills but then I can't ask him to sell the jacket at 4,000 bucks, right! So just a tentative idea of the price I should keep in mind as a reference to bargain??

                              • Don't buy online ... and don't look for attractive price go to shop & select what you like without looking at price tag ...


                                That's my way ... and its best for me
