Default New leathers

Hey all,

I've been looking to purchase a new leather racing suit but I haven't found anything that appeals to me that is in my price range. However, I came across AGVSPORT's new Willow suit and I'm a big fan. [Only registered can see links. ] Let me know what you guys think or if you have any suggestions. Thanks.

Andy

Welcome to the forum. If price range is the problem you're having, trying looking around different sites for closeout specials. Usually the top companies (A*, Dainese, and others) will price down last years product so that they can move the new stuff.
Since riding season is here, the product might be tough to find but you never know. AGV is good stuff, but I'm normally hearing how phenomenal A*, Dainese, and RS-Taichi stuff is. Problem is that those brands are usually moderately expensive. Is this gonna be your first year going to the track?

Hello and welcome to the forum/site - are you doing tack days? riding street with a full suit isnt so bad its when you arent riding that its kind of silly.
i ride in an olympus suit [Only registered can see links. ]
something like that.
if you ride alot, leather is a drag and as long as you keep speeds sane, that will hold up fine i've crashed in 2 suits.
