The Alpinestars GP-R Perforated Leather jacket is a new 2011 Spring Release from Alpinestars. This jacket is a fantastic new addition to their summer riding line up. High air-flow is the main concern of the Alpinestars GP-R jacket, that means it isn’t really a highly universal jacket. This jacket does not come with a liner on the inside, so if your going to be doing any cool riding, we recommend you look at the Knox Cold Killers to keep you warm in the cooler months. Also using the Alpinestars CE Bio Armor protectors in the elbows and in the shoulders.
