    JK 17 has 4 ventilation vents (intake) in front( two on the chest and 2 on the tummy) and 2 vents(outlet) at the rear.

    BTW the black one looks good and congrats on your purchase

    • I really get pissed off,when something goes wrong.
      I was supposed to get my jacket yesterday but these numbskull "trackon" Courier people say that it cant be delivered,due to diwali rush!and today they can deliver cause they have holiday!
      damn we have festivals every single day in a year!
      People just need a excuse to get off from work!

        OT : its even worse in chennai. I supposed to get the package on tuesday / wednesday but trackon just playing games and finally i shouted at them and they asked to come and pick it up. i cant believe what they done to the package, all wrappers are removed. my address is not even visible on that. i also asked raw adventure people not to use trackon henceforth.

            Picked up the JK-17 (reviewed very well on this thread somewhere). Good armour & definitely VFM. Got it on wed.
            If you are not afraid, you have probably chosen too easy a mountain to climb!!

                    There's a huge difference between passion and business!

                    As far I have seen

                    Mr Devgun is passionate about serving the whole biking fraternity

                    others: well,business

                      is it water proof? all season one? does it hve elbow guard, back guard , chest guard lining in it?
                      Replace the words "I have to" with "I choose to" and notice the difference in how you feel.

                        • some details on the shoes i use for riding. tplease note..this is not a riding shoe. it is a trekking shoe ..

                          quechua ventiv forclas. got it for the same international price from outdoortravel gear. re enforced toe and ankle will offer some protection there. very comfy shoe. grip is good on the ground esp while riding during rains or pushing the bike on wet roads/parking etc.

                          shoe is water proof and breathable and has seen rain riding.keeps feet dry till date. shoe has seen 700 kms riding so far. i also wear it for walks and also to my office during weekends. 30 days old now long term how it will perform is not known. hope it will keep up. the photos were taken as is condition of the shoe except for the sole which i have cleaned. www.OutdoorTravelGear.com - Motor Biking, Camping, Hiking, Urban Cycling, Climbing, Water Sports, Lifestyle

                          • I decided to bought the DSG revive, but the doubt I have in mind is that it's a touring glove is it ok if I use it for city riding? It's not a long distance around 30kms everyday? I need people's reviews on the gloves, if anybody has used it for city riding???
                            I would rather be riding my bike thinking of God, than sitting in the temple thinking of my bike.

                              are you sure you had been to AH and not AA...coz the later one is quite often visited by xbhpians and i have no idea about AA...except that i havent got good reviews about it...and probiker gloves from AH have been bought by guys back here for Rs.450/- as well...so remember that in India we should bargain for everything
                              @nin

                              Haven't done much touring till now... But plan to join xbhpians some time (need to save up for the gear)...


                              You meant the "former" one is visited by xbhpians?? By the way...
                              AH Helmets is near Lokhandwala, Andheri (nearest landmark: Infiniti Mall)
                              AA helmets is near Goregaon (nearest landmark: Goregaon Bus Depot)

                                Even I would like this info... Gloves with decent knuckles and wrist protection but mainly for city riding (lower speeds)
