    If you can give the Thermal liner a skip (instead you may use a Thermal wear -Thermocote,etc inside), then Rynox Asphalt is the best jacket from the jackets that you shortlisted above. Reason 1) It comes with Knox armours (way more reliable than normal CE rated armours) 2) It is very light weight for daily rides 3) At 6550 you cannot ask for more if you are getting a Mesh jacket with KNOX armour and water- resistant liner. After all the jacket should be valued more by its level of protection.
    Rain liner of Asphalt though is not the best, but trust me water seeps in most the jackets that provide a rain liner. The only jacket where I have heard (directly from a user) of some extra-ordinary protection form rain is the Rynox Tornado Pro.

      If you can spend 7.1k then get yourself the rynox tornado pro. Best all round jacket imo at that price. Otherwise get the rynox asphalt but it doesn't have a thermal liner. But the tornado pro is more vfm

        Hi recently bought my gears.
        Rynox tornado pro is best.. But try it as armor fitting was not good for me so have to buy rynox air gt.(air flow is super infact spin chilling).
        Rynox asphalt is good but it only comes with two liners(thermal liner ia nt there)

                    It's a good jacket. Have checked it out personally. It's not a sports fit btw, it's much more comfortable than the Rynox pro and is lighter in comparison to the Rynox Tornado pro. Comes in only black and has orange inserts. Good quality protectors too!

                        I am confused between rynox pro and defender..!! Thinking of buying tornado pro and inserting the sas tecs from solace as they sell it too

                          You can do that but then your prices will be as such.
                          RTP : 7100+1300=8400
                          SD : 6850+1300=8150 (maybe he'll make it 8000).

                            I'll change all guards to sas tec.. Price would hike
                            7100+730+830+1300= 9960.. But would be the nearly mostly perfect fit jacket with the best armors [emoji5]️[emoji5]️
