I have just paid £80 for a HG Goretex jacket that should have been well over £300 from their warrenty dept on ebay.They are graded from 1-10,I went for a decent one rather than the cheapest one that I could get.So far I am pleased with it.Time will tell.
As for the Rukka jacket,I bought one from the NEC bike show in 1987.I would buy it but I suspect it might be a bit too small for my lardy belly these days.
If anyone is looking for a good , cheapish jacket it's worth looking on Ebay for 'Hein Gericke jackets' - their warrentry department often sell returns there for not a lot of cash - OK, you have to check what is wrong with them - obviously if the proofing has failed they may not be worth the bother, but often it's just missing poppers or very minor tears that are easily fixed.
