Full Suit
Ok so I'm thinking about buying a full leather suit,I tossed the last one I had- way old! I don't want to spend too much because I'll probably wear 5 times total. So far here's what I have,
A* Octane in white/black for $499 http://www.newenough.com/closeouts/l...race_suit.html Technic Chicane in black for $299 http://www.motorcyclecloseouts.com/h...e+42,+48+or+50 I'll probably drop the extra $200 on A* but we'll see...what do you all think?

I think that's the suit Trip and Fatburg have... Trip speaks very highly of it.

$200 would buy some extra gas for more riding.

I know a few people who've gotten the Chicane and liked it. I've read some good reviews on it, but I haven't read anything as to how it compares to the A*.
Doing a quick search on the A*, it seems to have a little bit better protection than the Teknic. The A* has CE armor and the Teknic has Teknic Armorshield...whatever that is.
