ok cool, i'll keep the money for now.
thanks guys.
and thanks buzz for the explanation on how a new exhaust will affect the bike.
looks like i won't be needing any of them for now.
but i still wanna know why one of the motoGP suit has a belly???

It is just as easy to put on a one piece suit as it is to put on riding pants and a jacket seperately.VermilionX wrote:that's true but i won't be using the 1-pc suit immediately since i only intend to use it for the tracks or other special rides. 1pc is too much hassle for everyday common riding.

well, i don't want my current jacket and pants to be obsolete so i'll just get that 1pc suit later when im ready for the tracks.
i really like the pure black/red, not too much graphics on it but why the hell does it have a belly.

no, i just meant that mint says 1pc suits are as easy to put on as a jacket and pants combined.Sevulturus wrote:How does a jacket become obsolete?
then why would i wear my jacket and pants if i have a 1pc suit already.
actually, now that i think about it. if im just going to work or school then yeah, i'd still need it.
i don't think i'll enjoy wearing a 1pc suit at school.

at work, i bring my scrubs on my tail bag so problem there if i choose to wear the 1pc suit on the way.
plus i think i'll be more confident on trying to lean low if im wearing a 1pc suit.
now the problem is finding that motogp 1pc suit and see how a size 40 fits me. i have checked 2 big bike stores here and no luck yet.

I caught this earlier today about those MotoGP suits: they aren't what MotoGP racers wear. They are cheap knock-offs that use single stitching and burst easily upon impact.
I'll get you some more infor when I get back from a ride. The Katana, uhh, needs more test and tune.

yeah of course, i know they're not the ones motoGP racers wear.Skier wrote:I caught this earlier today about those MotoGP suits: they aren't what MotoGP racers wear. They are cheap knock-offs that use single stitching and burst easily upon impact.
but i wanna know where you saw that they burst easily on impact. they claim the compression suit is made from kangaroo hide which they claim is almost 2x stronger than cowhide.
well, if this is bad choice then i'll go back to my original choice, the teknic violator 1 pc suit.
