If only you were built more like R2-D2 than Chewbacca. I'd be all over those.

Very nice. Do you think you have enough pics posted... A hefty 6 footer with gorilla length arms but short (31 inseam) chimp legs won't fit huh? No back protector?

I have both solid & perforated 2-pc Fieldsheer leather suits, a 1st Gear jacket/Fieldsheer pants mesh suit, and a 2-pc Aerostitch custom Roadcrafter suit but if I had the bucks I'd go for the AlpineStars MX-1 2-pc combo http://www.motostrano.com/almxtwopisu.html which you can choose different size jacket & pants. As I don't race anymore, a 2-pc is good enough for track days and much better than a 1-pc for street work.

Sounds like you are the right size.

Hmmm....Blue bike with red & white letters would look VERY patriotic !

I wanted to make sure everyone could see the all details of the suit !

It comes with a foam pad back protector. (forgot to take pics of it)
I used a separate Dainese hard shell back protector for more protection on the track.

I have 31" inseam & the legs were too long for me. It worked but was not 'right'.
Thought about getting them altered but got a custom Syed suit instead.
Called http://www.Syedleathers.com & they said they would alter the legs for around $50.

Just for reference (to give you an idea how they fit me)....here are a couple of pics of me wearing these leathers at a track day last month
I am 5'11", 210lbs, 40" waist, 31" inseam, 46" chest. (wearing a hard shell back protector adds about 1"-2" to chest size)

Heh....just think - If you avoid one trip to the Emergency Room these leathers will have paid for themselves ! ! !

they match your race bike perfect...

... you prolly thought about that b4 you bought 'em, eh?

I've been down enough when I was younger (43 now) that I was keen to adjust the nut on the linkage between throttle and seat when I found out how fun the Shawk was. Bought/buying boots and textile pants for now to go with Hein Gericke jacket. I haven't gotten to a track day to really warrant more. But I'd like some...

The cagers worry me some tho'.
