Completely missed the point, Rotor. Ferret does layer but finds that he can purchase better layers than those which are provided with most motorcycle jackets.
If I need a rain layer, I have rain gear that goes over my textile jackets and pants. The advantage of this is that my jacket and pants don't get soaked through as they would if the rain layer was inside the jacket. If I need a wind layer, I can put on a windbreaker under my jacket. I admit that some of the liners I've seen could serve this purpose, but why worry about it if I already own a windbreaker? If I need insulation, I can toss a fleece on under the windbreaker or, if it's not too cold, a sweatshirt or a longsleeve t-shirt. So, really, I wish that the liners were optional and I could get a high-quality mesh jacket in the style I prefer without paying for them.
