Nice review man! Thanks for the heads up. I really do appreciate The insight. Maybe my new KTM paint job will be on a set.

Valid argument. Some times its easier not to say lots quicker to repaint rather than replace when you have to order parts before repairs can start. I agree the price makes a big difference in mine and everybody else's decisions but each to their own.

Just like everything else in life, you get what you pay for. The cheap stuff usually is FUBAR after a wreck or it takes more effort than it's worth to fix them.

Paying more doesn't always give you better quality, many times it just makes you easy pickings for overpriced products. Take for example japanese vs italian motorcycles. Lower purchase and maintenance costs with higher reliability and performance dollar for dollar vs pretty bike....

Then you got things that are just straight rip offs all because of brand name. This is really noticeable in the clothing/gear world.

You have to be a smart shopper about what you buy to get best performance for lowest cost.

No problem, man. You might wanna check and see if they make them for KTM.

If you think attack is nice, you should check out armour bodies and sharkskinz.

Anybody try Cheetah? I can get a set for $300 new and I just sold my old ones. They retail for $700 on their site, so I'm thinking the quality is nice. Opinions?

plastics are for posers, real racers use fur.
