    And any of the users posting their opinion on Rjays Shift will be a great help!!

    Hey I own a Rjays Swift (XL size)

    Check out the image attached.

    It is pretty good for Mumbai weather. Though the sweat-machine that I am, I still end up sweating a lot inside but atleast I don't dehydrate myself out!

    It is very comfortable to wear as well and you can wear it to work/rides without any issues .

    Got it from Bachho Motors.

          A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

            If youre saying that the armour at the elbow will move because of the open zip & velcro, then I wouldnt really agree with you. It could vary from jacket to jacket depending on the design & material used but for the Nero I would say that it doenst make it a safety risk. I could be wrong though. Thoughts anyone ?

              All things considered, I'm very pleased with my purchase and I would definitely recommend a buy!


              How much you have paid for it??

                  yeah it will move and Iam damn sure about it. i have been wearing spike for so long and i know even with the zips closed the armour moves around a lot.my friend fell with the zip closed and ended up with bruises and abrasions on the arm and elbow. when i fell with my breezer on, the same thing happened.the armour moves aside the moment you touch the ground and at the very 1st hint of a drag exposing my forearm and elbow to the ground. this is why i added additional straps on the forearm of my jackets to secure the armour in place.a simple test is to keep the zip open and try to rotate the armour around your elbow if it does its of no use get additional straps.

                  now Iam very particular about the forearm circumference while buying a jacket and all international jackets provide that in their size chart or if you ask the store manager they will provide you the measurement.

                  in short never buy a jacket which is loose around your forearm with the adjustor at maximum adjustment.which means that after wearing the jacket you shouldnt be able to displace the armour fully from around your elbow
