Default Dainese Bora vs. Delmar jacket...

Currently have the Bora, debating on selling it to get the Delmar... Thoughts?

The Bora's a great jacket. The last all-leather "race" jacket they made with the titanium protections. Delmar looks really nice too, with the new bubble liner and stuff... What to do what to do...

Hey man!

Is the delmar the new Santa Monica? Anyway, looks good. Get it if you are able to sell your jacket.

Update us and post pics.

Don't have the Santa Monica but I'm lovin the Arizona. ;)

Thanks fellas. The Delmar is the newest "Race" jacket in Dainese's line for 08. I'm debating on just keeping the Bora also, but man.. that junk is expensive..! We'll see. Waiting for the Delmar to come out so I can check it in person...

I agree with MSU. Never hurts to have a lot of gear around so you have spare gear. ;)

you should keep the bora jacket. i think it was earlier this yr i had thought about selling my bora. i finally decided that i was better off keeping it than losing the difference on what i paid & selling price. it is technically a superior jacket even by dainese's current line-up standards.

i checked out the del mar jacket last week. really nice! the bubble liner is interesting... feels weird though when you put the jacket on. not sure how to describe it other than it feels a bit "puffy". i love the integrated neck 5 support. i was hoping someone might have some experience w/ this new 3d bubble liner. if it does keep the body cooler compared to the regular sanitized liner, i might be very interested in picking up the del mar.
