Default Got a 1 piece this week

I was able to get a Cortech Latigo suit this week on a deal with our distributor. Brand new, $288 and $15 shipping, so $303 to my door (at work)!!! It may not be absolute top of the line race gear but for the money there is no beating it!! It's actually good quality for the price range, retail they run $579 I think? Now I've got all the gear I need, just need to get the VTX sold and replace it with an FZ1 or something else sporty

Looks a wee bit tight. Skip seconds from here on in, and watch lefty if you need to reach for something high.

Congrats! I got a piece this week too! LOL

Really its a cool suit and a bargain. Take the money you saved and get a quality back protector. That will top you off!

It is a bit short in the torso but in the riding position it's perfect and loose enough to move around fine! If I unzip it below my chest when I'm standing it loosens up enough, besides I don't plan on doing any jumping jacks in it If I'd gotten a 2x it would have been way too long in the legs and sleeves so until I can afford a custom suit this will do for the $$$
