ok, so I went for a ride today in my Frank Thomas Strike Leather pants...and they seem to fit just fine, but about half way thru red rock I felt like my kidneys and abdomen were gonna break...I was in serious pain ! So, I am thinking a one piece suit might be a better way for me to go?? What one pc. suits do you guys find the most "comfy" and reliable??? BTW how hard is it gonna be to find a suit that fits a 38 in chest and a 30 in waist??????

Do they uuhhhh......smell different than mens pants??




BTW......I like how you quote yourself in 3 posts. You're a nutcase. I like that.

Now, about those boobs. You mentioned 38 chest, 30 waist, but left out the butt measurement.

If you post some scantily clad pics of yourself (leave Pheer Phactor out of the pics please) we, as a whole could be more helpful in pointing you to a proper set of leathers.

Okay.....I'm done clownin. NewEnough.com has great deals, as does other online stores. However, you may be best served to have some custom made for your particular build. Spendy......but all you.

Don't welcome me to the board i just deleted my other account B1gboi now i came back... but anyway

leathers: if you were having problems with the bottom of a two piece then you might wanna go up a size or so... now if you get a 1pc it is going to be more of a racers cut (meaning it is uncomfortable off the bike but better comfort on the bike) most are about 90% race cut.

2pc are more relaxed in the fit. their cuts can be a wide range from 10-80% race cut...

personally i would never wear Frank Thomas, Field Shear, AGV, low end Technic suits (personally)

the more the suit cost the better the protection... there was a closeout on suits at starcycle.com a few weeks ago.

I know A-Stars and Spidi make a line up just for women. you can also call some customer support lines and see what they say about the size you would need.

here are some of the sites i use
www.kneedraggers.com
www.ridersinc.com
www.mawonline.com
www.hardracing.com

just to name a few if you need anymore then ask maybe i can help a lil more

Don't forget, well fit leather will be tight new. They have to be worn several times before they fit right. Josh actually jumps in a tub, gets the leathers completely wet then wears them till they dry. You can ask him for the complete story, but it seems to help with the break in period.

HMMM, not sure what the deal is, but they are NOT tight at all, i just think they dont fit my body right...the cut or something, OR maybe too big????
I will look at some one piece suits this week , see what is out there, maybe try some on.


I think maybe Josh just likes the feel of wet leather KIDDING- I will hit him up on those instructions should the need arise LOL !!! Thanks for the advice :)
