I have this jacket and I like it. The main difference is that this one is not mesh, it does have panels in the front that can be zipped out for ventilation though.

Also has vents in the back and arms but is quite a bit hotter that the mesh in the summer, but is much more versatile. It can be worn in the winter with the panels in and with the liner.

Overall a good jacket. I can't answer on what its worth...I guess its worth is what ever somebody wants to pay for it.
 
I have the mesh jacket and its great for warm weather riding. But if you ride in colder weather, 60 or below, then the adventure jacket is better for you.
 
Ouch that is pricey! You are gonna be pissed when I tell you that I got mine from a former Buell guy on craigslist for $80. I had no idea they were so expensive everywhere else...

If you don't ride in too hot of a climate than I'd say it is plenty 'vented'. I wanted a mesh jacket as well but here in Colorado this Jacket works great since you can leave in 80* temps and it might rain and drop the temp to ~50*. It is a REALLY good all day kind of jacket!
 
I live in Indianapolis so we experience it all. Also I was thinking that was super pricey for a used jacket.
 
I just got a whole adventure suit for 350. I thought it was worth 175$ each. I really just wanted the jacket but he would not sell them seperate. To me, the adventure WAS mesh, but I've been sweating all summer in a leather jacket.

Also its in Australia, shipping is estimated @ 80$ o top of 250.....
 
yea, Id hold out if I were you. There will be better deals, keep your eyes on this forum cuz its your best bet for a good price on anything buell.
