This one has room for boobs and is long, but is a little too big for me. When I crashed the elbow pad moved too much and I ended up hurting my elbow pretty bad.
I tried on a JR jacket today for the hell of it. I have no idea the model or anything, just that it was a size small and on the clearance rack in case I did like it. It fit and was long enough in the back to suit me, but the sides and front were WAY TOO short. I'm sure that is just how it is made, but I didn't care for it.

I don't have to worry about making room for boobs. Unforutunately (or fortunately) I don't have much there to stuff anywhere.

Here is the jacket that I want, but need to try on for sure.

No red, at least not for me. I don't want to look like a Christmas tree, which I would. Green bike (tree), red jacket (ornaments/lights), and yellow helmet (star).

I was referring to the pink and baby blue ones you posted. My two least favorite colors for gear...followed only by white.

And yes...I know I am picky!
