FAQs
Is the thermal liner waterproof?
The thermal liner is designed for insulation and warmth. The primary waterproofing is provided by the ClimaTECH outer shell.
Can I wear this jacket in hot weather?
Yes, by removing the thermal liner and opening the adjustable air vents, the jacket can provide comfortable ventilation in warmer conditions, though it is primarily designed for touring and adventure riding.
How do I clean the jacket?
Hand wash the outer shell with cool water and mild detergent. Allow it to air dry completely. Refer to the care section for detailed instructions on washing the removable liner.
What does CE Certified mean for this jacket?
CE certification (EN 17092-3:2020) means the jacket meets specific safety standards for motorcycle protective clothing, indicating its durability and abrasion resistance.
Can I connect any brand of motorcycle pants to this jacket?
The jacket features a 200mm zipper specifically designed to connect with compatible Bike-It motorcycle pants. It is unlikely to connect with other brands.
How often should I re-waterproof the jacket?
It is recommended to re-waterproof the jacket annually or whenever you notice water no longer beading on the fabric surface to maintain optimal performance.
Troubleshooting
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use with gloves.
Ensure zippers are clean and free of debris. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. The rubberised coating is designed for grip, but stiffness can occur with dirt ingress.
Water is leaking through the seams or zips.
Check that all zippers are fully closed. The jacket may require re-waterproofing treatment on the outer fabric and seam sealing if leaks persist.
Ventilation feels inadequate.
Ensure the air vents are fully open and not obstructed by the thermal liner or other clothing. Check for any blockages in the vent pathways.
Jacket feels too loose or too tight despite adjusters.
The jacket may not be the correct size. Ensure you have utilized the waist and arm adjusters to their fullest extent. Consider checking the size guide or trying a different size if comfort and fit are compromised.
