Ok, this may be a stupid question, but I am not afraid to go there.
I have a perf jacket now, which I like but can be a little chilly.
I have the opportunity to get a non perf jacket for a decent price.
Overkill or good idea?

I would rather die on my feet then to live on my knees ZAPATA ( but i am pretty sure he stole it from a scotsman)

My jacket is perf. Bought it when I lived in Georgia, so it was a no brainer. When I ride here in CO, I often find myself freezing my gnarlies off.
I would buy another one, but I just steal my wife's textile jacket when it gets chilly.
I have a non-vented leather, half leather.haf textile mesh, and getting a perforated 1 piece leather. No, not over kill. Just prepared.
A variety of good gear is NEVER overkill. I have a perforated Vanson jacket, Rocket textile, 1pc Teknic (track), 2pc Alpinestars (street), etc...
Invest in versatile gear designed to handle all types of conditions - Teknic makes some really cool stuff this year that fits into that category.

I agree! Too much gear is never overkill.

You can never have too much gear- ask anyone who's been in my kitchen
Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious.
I have a mesh jacket and a textile jacket - both with full (sleeved) removable liners. I say get the jacket - being relatively comfortable makes the ride that much more pleasureable.
Yup got both too. Like everyone else said, you can never have too much gear. I almost always ryde with a thin windbraker and hankerchief (for the face) in my trunk just in case I get cold.
