Joe Rocket Alter Ego, New 2009 Range
It is rare that a motorcycle product takes its name from a Latin phrase, like the Joe Rocket Alter Ego 2.0 Jacket. Alter ego – “the other I." Hmm… Pretty sure the Joe Rocket marketing crew was smoking something wacky at the pitch meeting, but we won’t complain as the oddly-named Alter Ego has been our favorite jacket as of late.
Alter Ego must refer to the versatile nature of the jacket design, as it can transform from warm waterproof protector to full-mesh summer wear with a couple zipper pulls. The key to the design are the detachable outer sleeves and body shell.
Fully assembled, the water resistant Rock Tex 660 exterior shell teams with a removable waterproof liner for solid protection. Our cold weather riding was limited with the Alter Ego, but with some added layers and cinched up sleeve adjusters you stay plenty warm.
Our favorite mode of transforming the Alter Ego was with the sleeves and body panels removed. Full mesh breathability makes the JR design an incredibly versatile addition to the gear locker. We used it for everything from regular commuting to long-distance street rides and even a two-day dual-sport trip.
CE-rated armor protection is housed in the shoulder and elbows, with the multi-position sleeve adjustors ensuring secure fit with or without the removable sleeves. An additional CE back protector can be fitted in place of the standard
We wore the Joe Rocket Alter Ego 2.0 jacket out, putting it on whether we were riding on the street or while doing a little backwoods dual-sporting. pad, while a pair of cinch straps at the waist fine tune the fit. An eight-inch zipper and snap loops connect to riding pants or belt.
The Alter Ego’s conservative styling, at least for JR, is a plus in this tester’s book, but may not appeal as much to the hardcore sportbike crew. That said, we did get more than one compliment from un-biased riders and non-riders alike.
Our only real gripe with the Alter Ego is that, like Humpty Dumpty, putting it back together again is a lesson in patience. Practice first before attempting with wet, cold, frustrated fingers out in the middle of a ride spoiled by an unexpected weather change. Also, detachable parts are great but easy for scatterbrained riders to lose (we still have all of ours, for now!).
The $259.99-274.99 MSRP isn’t on the low end of the spectrum, but it’s rare we find anything that couldn’t stand a price drop. In our estimation the Joe Rocket Alter Ego benefits far outweigh the persnickety complaints from this crotchety tester. Bottom line, we enjoy the fit and comfort, but we love the versatility. Our Alter Ego, that other I, is a definite gearbag keeper.
