The ol Bobber Gen 2 jacket has been awarded Motocap's highest rating of five stars for safety!
After a lot of research, testing and development the new version is here!
The new version features big upgrades to the ventilation and safety (more info below), as well as introducing the diamond stitching right down the arms for that classic look.
More details below
- NEW The elbow and shoulders are the most critical areas of jackets for safety as that is the first part that will likely hit the road in the unfortunate event of a crash. Having a double layer of leather stitched together increases the slide time by around 4x of a single layer.
- NEW Classic diamond quilted look. The diamond quilting down the arms isn't just for show! This stitching actually is mainly there to bind the two layers of premium leather together. The elbow and shoulder are the critical safety points on a jacket that are most likely to hit the ground first and therefore reinforcing makes an already very safe jacket into an even safer one! The reason for having two layers of leather instead of one very thick layer is twofold; the first is that the two layers allows for more movement and flexibility over one equally thick layer, and its also safer with better abrasion times.
- UPGRADED: Better comfort in warmer weather; now with 8 zippered vents including underarms, shoulder, back of the arms and back rear vents to let the warm air out. On colder days you can easily do them up which along with the liner or another layer makes for a nice and warm jacket.
- UPGRADED: Higher rated CE2 removable Shoulder, Back and Elbow impact armour comes as standard, no extra charges here to look after yourself! If you don't like the look of armour in jackets or prefer to ride without they come out easily. The armour is soft, flexible and comfortable.
- Full length jacket so if you're a little taller it's not cut off at your belly button, looks better when you get off the bike and you're also not flashing people behind you while riding. Win win win!
- Premium matching black YKK zippers all around for longer wearing.
- Removable inner liner for more warmth
- 4 outer pockets + 1 key pocket (on sleeve for easy access) + 2 inner pockets
- Adjustable cuffs and waist for a better fit
- 1-1.2mm thick cowhide leather provides a perfect mix between style, comfort and safety. Doubled up on the critical elbow and shoulder areas.
Below is the sizing guide. I've done this a little different to how most sizing guides are done. Instead of giving a sizing like 32, 34, 36, etc I have given the actual size of the jacket so you can pick the one that best suits you.
The main measurement is the chest measurement.
1) You want to take your own chest measurement (under the armpits at the widest part)
2) Then add a minimum of 14cm to that measurement then choose from the below table. If you want a more relaxed fit or you typically ride with more layers underneath add another 2-4cm then choose from the below.
The measurements on the website are the actual size of the exterior of the jacket so you need some extra room to move and breath etc and 14cm is about the sweet spot for giving enough space to move but without making it baggy.
If you would like another specific measurement just let me know (eg biceps) and I can measure it for you, no dramas! If you would like help with sizing email or message on Facebook and I can help. I can also potentially get bigger and smaller sizes in if yours isn't here.
If the way I've done this size guide is confusing as hell and I should do it like everyone let me know and I'll do that.
I totally get buying a jacket or glove online can involve a bit of risk when it comes to sizing etc so I am more than happy to do a size swap or return if you want (provided it's still in the same condition it got sent to you in).
Black Pup Moto was born because I could never find quite what I wanted. I wanted gear that matched the more classic/cafe racer style of bikes I liked.
I wanted Real high-grade leather without too much branding on the outside and without plastic-y add ons and so the 'ol Bobber' was designed and tested right here in Australia.
Created to suit classic, cafe racer, bobber or whatever you wish! Well suited to Triumph, Royal Enfield, Harley Davidson etc.
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 4 reviews.
Very impressed with the jacket. Was concerned about the size but it worked out to be as the size guide. Like the fact no logo's and the double leather on arms and shoulders. Plenty of ventilation zips. Other bonus is the length of the jacket it better than other leather jackets I had covers down to your tailbone.

A little stiff, but thats ok given all the protection this jacket offers, which is all i really care anout anyway. Its a good looking jacket and im sure it will become less stiff over time.

This is a great leather jacket! It's well made, fits true to sizing, and gives a good deal of confidence given both the 5-star motocap safety rating and in-person perception of the production quality. I love all the vents around the jacket, which should prove to do a great job of cooling when summer arrives. In our present Toowoomba (QLD) winter, where it gets quite cold and very windy, it does a good job of keeping me warm with the included liner attached. I also appreciated the pockets, especially the one on the sleeve which is big enough to hold various cash and/or cards. I also like that the liner has its own pockets when fitted, so you don't lose easy access to internal storage. Being a member of a motorcycle club, I wear my colours/cut (a vest with patches) over any jacket, and I was also happy to say that this jacket sits well under my colours, whereas other jackets from other manufacturers haven't in the past. Hence, this was important to me, and I'm glad that worked out well. On top of all this, the style is on point, and would suit any cruiser or cafe racer motorcycle rider. The only issues I had were: 1. The package arrived covered all over with grease, but this only affected the outter plastic of the packaging not the inner packaging (separate) or the product itself, so no biggy. This was likely caused by courier mishandling, and not in Black Pup Moto's direct control. 2. I wasn't a fan of the included armour (too stiff), so I did a straight swap for Level 2 SAS-TEC elbow/shoulder armour, along with a D3O Viper Level 2 back armour, and that made the jacket feel a lot more comfortable, and less restrictive. 3. While removing the back armour (specifically) that came with the jacket it tore along a groove. To me, there seemed to be no way of removing it without bending it, given that the velcro opening was somewhat smaller than the width of the armour. So bending it a little seemed like the only way to remove it. I wasn't rough. Hence, I'd suggest either leave the included armour in the jacket (it comes fitted), or if you want more comfortable armour, don't remove it until you have a second back protector on hand. Your mileage may vary tough. Having mentioned these issues, none detract from my 5-star rating. I am very happy! :) Great job, Black Pup Moto!!!
