I'm getting a bike soon (and taking the MSF) and want to get good protective gear to save my ass when I go down.

I know what I want as far as helmet, gloves, and boots are concerned. But I've been hearing different things about jackets.

What is the better one to get? I have a good bit of money I can spend on this stuff and don't want to shy away from better products, especially if it means better safety....I'll just guestimate 400 dollars to be my spending limit on a jacket.
