Just bought the same jacket and think it's great.  Very tough outer shell and very warm (on cold rides).  I would recommend it.

I went down at 45mph in my Joe Rocket Reactor S and slid 110 feet on asphalt... didn't have a scratch.  Joe Rocket gloves saved me too.  Joe Rocket is good stuff in my book.  Don't get me started on the Icon Reinforced jeans tho :roll:

I haven't crash-tested my Meteor, but I rode it all winter, and although there was no cause to test it for sun fade, ;), it kept me warm and dry in below-freezing weather and cold rain.  Quality among a maker varies from low-end to high-end jackets, but again, on my Meteor, the stitching is very good quality and shows no signs of fraying or coming out.

I have an older Joe Rocket Balistic (NEON FRIGGEN' GREEN)...  I love it...  (but I have no clue how it is in a crash)... :?

I've had my JR atomic jacket for five years, not a busted seem or loose thread.  Lots of bug splats, and dirt, but that just makes me look like a veteran motorcyclist.  :thumb:

Phoenix jacket here too.  Rode all of last year with it with no problems.  It looks like new still.  I'd recommend Rocket gear.

RTUBMAN

RIGHT THERE WITH YOU. I HAVE JR PHEONIX JACKET AND ITS NICE SO FAR. THE WIND LINER IS VERY WARM ON COLD DAYS AND YOU CAN PULL IT OUT ON HOT DAYS AND HAVE THE AIR BLOW RIGHT THRU. IM HAPPY.

Did you get it on close-out from Newenough.com?  I have the same jacket.  I'm pretty happy with Joe Rocket stuff too.  I have a Phoneix that's great and a neon green balistic too, which is fine except for the inner front zipper broke and doesn't work anymore.  The outer one is fine, so the jacket still works.

Enjoy your new "gear".
