What's the general opinion on Dainese suits. Thinking of getting a Dainese Flanker 2 piece.

Are these any good for protection or are they just for posing in.

Cheers

Think they get a fairly bad rep, but I have 2 suits, and love them. Quality seems great, but I've never had a crash in them.

Like the fit and protectors too.

Rubbish.

Get something that wont fall apart on you instead of a "label".
Theres much better suits out there for the money.
There was a thread about leathers a while back.
I seem to remember Lozzo had quite a bit of good input on which brands were the best.

I can remember a thread a few months ago but cant remember if Dainese was recommend or not.

A couple of retailers have said they were good but wanted some advice from people who have used them,

Depends where you ask, for some reason on here everyone jumps on the bandwagon and goes on hersay of the odd person without any actual personal experience of them.

I have had a set for 3 year and the quality is spot on, worn in all weathers and never really looked after and they are still solid.

I'm sure I also heard that the quality of the ones NOT made in Italy is worse, can't remember where I heard it though.

* It is my personal opinion, not jumping on any hearsay bandwagon (they were rubbish too) or going by the general consensus *
