British Motorcycle Gear is usually at the IMS motorcycle show. Try it on, save on shipping. Just remembered mine is the Challenger, not the Discovery. http://britishmotorcyclegear.com/challenger-jacket.asp

Re: Cold weather jacket
Leather is a good windproof layer but does not insulate.

My Challenger has a removable insulated liner. For the last couple seasons, that liner has stayed in the closet in favor of a Lands End squall jacket.
I find having a zipped-around-me layer makes the temps much more bearable. Even with the double zipper covers on the Belstaff, the wind still cuts through and with the liner, there's nothing between me and that draft. With a separate jacket, that draft is kept away from me. My $0.02. Take it for what it's worth.
