I bought the RSD Ronin jacket in smoke as my first moto jacket and I don't ride anywhere without it. With it's old-school styling that points to cafe racer culture, its perfect pocket placement for a balance of utility and streamlined looks, the thick full-grain leather, and the armor option (a no brainer), this jacket will have you dressed for the ride as much as the slide. The cowhide used has such a unique quality to it: like it was distressed by life, not by some designer in a studio. Scratches only make it look better.
What I love:
The full-grain leather protects while the perfs allow for effective airflow. One of the inner pockets is the exact size of my iPhone. The "smoke" color looks like a cream colored jacket would after rolling in some coal - really beautiful. Fits snug with just enough room for a base layer for cooler days.
Removable armor means you can still get use from the jacket after riding season is over. Armor is pretty comfortable, considering that it's armor.

What I don't love:
The armor seems to shift around in its pockets slightly; not sure if they will "set in" over time. The sleeves are a great length for arms-forward riding, but a bit long when off the bike. Also, the zippers on the sleeves don't want to stay shut all the way.

Is this jacket appropriate for Sydney (Australia) summer weather? i.e. 25-30 degrees celcius
^As above
It wouldn't be bad if you got it in the Smoke color. The jacket has good air flow. I wear mine on days up to about 29 degrees Celsius, but when it is warmer, it can get sweaty if not in motion. On hot days I do tend to take it off when I dismount.
