Pros: looks good, helmet holder, reflective piping, stays put, comfortable, rain cover
Cons: waist strap stowage, makes shirt ride up, no pen/pencil organizer, zippers
The Bottom Line: Overall a good pack for motorcyclists. Not quite as good for the just everyday duty.

| imconfused's Full Review: Joe Rocket Jet Pack |
This is a pretty decent backpack for any biker. The built in helmet holder is pretty novel and would be useful if riding somewhere with an extra helmet, but it looks really odd walking around with your helmet in it, especially if the backpack is already full.
The textured back, sternum strap, and waist strap all keep the pack exactly where you want it while riding. However, there is nowhere to put the waist strap if you aren't using it, so it gets in the way. Also, the textured back makes your shirt ride up when walking around. I am sure all backpack do this to an extent, but this pack seemed to do it more than my last pack.
The built in, hidden rain cover is a great functional addition.
It is a very unique and sharp looking backpack. Plenty of space in the main pocket for campus gear, trips to the store, etc.
The only other negatives are a lack of pen and pencil slots in the front pocket, so all of your stuff just gathers at the bottom of the compartment. Also, the zippers are all completely covered by flaps. While this keeps them from unzipping on their own, it sometimes make them hard to zip.
