I like the Corazzos but I find the fit doesn't work for me. Does anyone have any recommendations for jacket that looks like the speedway or 5.0? Thanks

Another possibility is to check out some of the other Corazzo jackets. Look at the sizing chart and you will see that each one has a very different fit. One of the other models might be an option. In my case I chose the Speedway over the 5.0 because it was more accommodating of my larger build. I also have the bomber jacket for colder weather and it fits entirely differently than the speedway.

Yup!
For larger persons, the Bomber has a nice fit

Unfortunately I can confirm that My Speedway fits OK, but is somewhat snug. My Bomber is a size smaller but is very loose and roomy.

Probably I should have been more specific

The sizing is a bit more generous on the Bomber
and the styling is quite accommodating for folks with "middle age spread" about the tummy
(or women with larger chests)

I'm sure that they fit other folks well, too

Olympia makes several jackets that will allow for more generous users. I am not sure that they have a style like the the Corazzo but it's another option. Many BMW dealers seem to stock them.

What's wrong with the good'ol scooterboy M1A? At least you don't look like the Domino's pizza delivery guy when you wear it.
