For hot days I use this dirt bike amored shirt from Fox.

On the down side, on long rides I get this very funky sun burn where the sun hits the skin in the holes in the mesh so now I try to wear a large dirt bike shirt over it.
If the ride is long I wear an evaporative vest soaked in water. Keeps my core cool for about 45 minutes. Probably not needed in Hawaii.
I wear it riding the the dual sport 650L and it has been tested when the bike has bucked me off.
It has the added benefit (in my eyes), with the shoulder armor and arm armor, one looks much more athletic and youthful, at least until you remove the helmet.
