one-piece leathers to avoid? - SV650.org

28-01-09, 04:23 PM

Hey

I'm heading to the bike show this weekend in search of a bargain one-piece suit. I've not bought new leathers for years and frankly have no idea of what's good and what will fall to pieces and leave me red all over. I'll be using this solely for track days and eventually racing so must be good kit.

I've been told to avoid RST but anything else to avoid at all costs?

Cheers

Stu

Speak to Lozzo he used to sell leathers.

On personal experience I'd be inclined to avoid anything with a Frank Thomas label on it.

There is a thread here from a couple of weeks back, where Lozzo gives some top notch advice. Do a search for RST Voltage.
