check out their ebay auctions too. they have suits on ebay and they usually go for around $200. if they have your size you're in luck.

 

Best advice I can give you... get the best quality suit you can... even if you have to spend a little more then you wanted. There are a lot of comfort options on the higher end suits that are not on the lower end suits.

 

Im going to a trackday in the beginning of June and I want to have my own leathers. I have been in the past on my R6 and used the rentals but they were :bash so I need to order some soon. Im looking at NewEnough and trying to spend around $500. They have a couple specials going on, but overall I can get a few different 2pc Suits for that price from FirstGear, Teknic and Alpine Stars.

FirstGear I can get the Speed Freak jacket and Pilot pants as a set
Teknic I can get a Lightning or Violator jacket with Sport or Chicane pants
and A-stars I can get a TZ-1 jacket with Track pants (about $100 more then I want to spend)

What size are you? I am considering to sell my SPIDI RS Pro 2pc in order to get a 1pc.

what should I look for in particular?

 

Better armor, triple stiching, thicker leather, extra leather in critical areas, kevlar stretch panels, removable liner, better zippers, etc., etc.

 

What's the best place to buy leathers in Virginia?

 

Can't you get an Alpinestars 1-piece and 2-piece for around $500?

I got a brand new Spidi suit that retails for $999 off of eBay for $350!!! Check out the auctions being held by Lockhart Phillips.

 

damn thats a good deal. all i can find is the "buy it now" bullshit and its like $5 below MSRP

 

check out the reflex gear on tobefast.com. custom fitted suit is the way to go.

 

I got a new Teknic Speedstar suit off eBay for $580 (retail is around $1400). But to answer your question, go with the Alpinestars combo. I have both the pants and the jacket as well and they work great.

 

Any leads for VA?

That's because LP is getting rid of the older products...

Id like to, but I cant really spend $850 on a suit right now

 

What about Joe Rocket? I have heard both bad and good about them. Are they worth the money?

 

I scored huge at Bikeweek daytona. Walked into the Tecknic tent and picked up a brand new 2 piece for $175, bought gloves for $60, AlpineStars boots on ebay for $75, and a new HJC helmet for $70 shipped. Less than $400 for a full set of gear.
Only added expense was going to Syed today and getting a full zipper installed for $75
