I have a BMW GS with "permanently" mounted side cases and wanted removable expansion storage with backrest functionality for occasional 2-up touring. The Givi brand has a name for quality and functionality, and this case met my needs for a low cost, easily removable top-case. I also wanted simple styling that blended with the black bike.
Storage capacity is great. On and off of the case couldn't be easier. The latching mechanism/case release are combined, but once understood both are a one hand operation. A carrying handle makes for easing toting off the bike.

REV'IT! Tarmac Air Textile Jacket Sometimes its simply too hot for leather. When the temperature rises, the REVIT Tarmac Air offers sport bike riders the styling they want, with the comfort they need. Sure, REVIT Tarmac Air will keep you safe with Engineered Skin design, CE-approved armor, and abrasion resistant fabric in the impact zones, but with the strategic use of mesh, youll be cooler than Tom Cruise in Top Gun.

Pros
I'm 6'1" with 42" chest and 35" sleeves. Size large fits well, and sleeves are perfect length. Jacket fits just snugly enough.
Quality looks top notch, as expected from Rev'it. The leather patches are well located and blend with the rest of the jacket.
Protection is good, but I upgraded back protection, which probably reduces ventilation somewhat.

Cons: none
Comments;
Pockets are 2, and limited - expected for this style jacket, but needs to be kept in mind.
Wore outbound with hydratex liner from another jacket at 60F. Would have been chilly otherwise. Return ride up to lower 90s - good ventilation.

Gerbing's Heated Jacket Liner Constructed from a wind-resistant, soft nylon shell. Wear the heated jacket liner under other motorcycle clothing. Insulated to be thermally efficient along with being wind-resistant and highly compressible. The perfect garment to pack for those unpredictable weather conditions. Gerbings newest version includes many upgrades to help make the jacket liner even better. The most revolutionary change to the liner is the New Microwire heat panels strategically placed throughout the garment, providing you with the thinnest, lightest, strongest and fastest heating system ever. Heating pads on the chest, back, collar, and sleeves Compressible, water-repellent, durable, Thinsulate insulation Teflon coated, wind-resistant, soft nylon shell Inside and outside pockets Silky soft micro denier collar Form-fitting patterns and sizing to fit snugly and easily under your outer garments Glove plug pockets placed on the sleeves secure the plugs when not in use Dual 2 wiring configuration (for one user only) Lifetime warranty on heating elements Incorporates Gerbing's Microwire heating technology that uses micro-sized heating fibers to surround the body with warmth. SPECIFICATIONS Heat Microwire Heat Techno ogy Source 12-volts DC Current 6.4 amps Watts 77 watts Surface Temp 135F +/- 5F at 32F Please Note Gerbing's has eliminated the Power Distribution Unit found on previous versions and replaced it with individual connectors that can be stored in a zippered, internal pocket.

Jacket fits well under Rev-It Sand Jacket, without liners on 60 degree day, with option for heat as day cools; and with liner to 32 degree (and probably lower).
I use the dual Gerbing controller, and heat is immediate, and easily controllable.
Air flow is minimal as expected, safety protection is minimal as expected.
Collar affords good & comfortable protection. Wiring seems secure (good strain relief), good (not excessive) length of cables), clean way to tuck cables away when not in use.

The Shark website shows an Evoline 3 - do you know when you will be carrying the newer model?
Good question. As great a helmet as the 2 is, the 3 has some notable enhancements. It does show up on the Shark USA site, and there are postings online that indicate a possible July availability in the USA
NB Peut-être c'est un problème de relations franco-américaines. On ne peut que remarquer que les communication entre ces deux "civilizations" ne sont pas toujours des meilleurs. C'est dommage.

When will you carry face shields for the Evoline 2 ST?
Can't find new face shields any where on your site.
They are available on the website at: http://www.revzilla.com/product/shark-evoline-2-2-st-faceshield.

Does the Shark Evoline 2 ST have to use the Shark Tooth system, or can other bluetooth solutions be used?
I have a SENA SMH10 unit on this helmet. Installation was no problem and it has worked fine for over 6 months. I used the SMH10 unit with separate boom mike & integral speakers.
