I just bought an XS - in a jacket that is, so I hope it fits. Something lightweight but waterproof for the English summer or my next trip to Thailand.

They are a pretty good bargain even as a spare

I bought an XS this morning, definitely a must have as a spare, I only have the one textile jacket atm and I didn't buy that new to start with (though it was practically new!). Cost me more than this Triumph one has!

got the m black and pink butterfly one as i like a bit more room and my previous was a 12 and at moment wearing daves ruckka one so think that a M will do perfectly, this will also be my first jacket brand new to me, although i did get my leathers pratically new.

Weird, I'm sure that pink butterfly one wasn't on there this morning, not that I would contemplate getting it, I flatly refuse to have anything pink on the bike. I like to remain fairly unnoticeable in the fairer sex department while on the bike, I think you get a lot more stick from chauvinistic ****s with massive egos on the road as a woman on a bike. Anyone else notice it? I prefer to wear stuff not massively feminine...(unless it's boiling then I'll wear leathers, doesn't happen often mind) then I can enjoy the looks of astonishment when they see I've got eyeliner on

Jacket's just come, very nice and superbly made as to be expected. Arms are a little on the short side for me but otherwise fits perfectly, certainly can't complain for just shy of £30. Going to test it in an hour or two.

You look like a woman on a bike. Your size and the cut of your jackets give it away. You could be mistaken for an extremely effeminate bloke I suppose.

I wear men's jackets, bigger and bulkier, blends in nicely, much better since I changed the helmet, to one with an internal visor too.

I only went for the pink one as the grey/white one was not available in my size, took mine out for a test ride today, great fit with the medium, gives me enough room to have my fleece hoody under it.arm legnth great and i have quite long arms for a woman.
nice and light but warm and definatly windproof, its 1 deg outside and i was nice and toasty,
very happy with it for £25.00

I was looking at the pink one as it would go with the bike once it has been sprayed

What size are you Gemma if you don't mind me asking?
