REV'IT! Outback 2 Motorcycle Jacket Review:

The Outback 2 has lots of adjustment and accordion stretch panels to ensure a comfortable but proper snug fit. When it comes to protection the 1600D elbows will provide you with tons of abrasion resistance and the Knox armor in the shoulders and elbows will take care of the impacts. There are also reflective panels to make sure your are noticed in low light conditions. Storage should not be an issue with a rabbit pouch, chest/hand warmer pockets, and a few interior pockets. Additionally, the REV'IT! Women's Outback 2 Jacket is also available for female riders.

The Outback 2 is the perfect stepping stone before getting into the more expensive and more ADV oriented like the Sand 2. At $350 the Outback 2 brings a lot of versatility to the table. If you are ready to tackle the roads all the way into the spring, the Outback 2 is ready to get you there safely and in style.
