$135?!?! Wow, that's ridiculous money. Great find!

I'm looking for a suit too, but haven't found what I want yet.

But here's a deal: $480 shipped for an Alpinestar Stage 1 or 2 piece suit

Fieldsheer 1 or 2 piece should be good for you. Decent price with decent protection.
Got mine 1 pc revo for $350 shipped at www.SandhillsPowerSports.com.
For 2 pc revo motoxoutlet has it for $299.
Can't beat this deal and it's been crashed tested.

Wow, well this deal is definitely sweeter than my post. Crazy cheap prices on a good suit. :eek3:
It's about the same price to get a full suit as just getting some pants for my Fieldsheer jacket. (Yeah well close enough)

If anyone finds anything cheaper, post up. Let the games begin. We all win. :icon_smil

I have a fieldsheer 2 pc that I wear on almost a daily basis that I picked up for 400 dollars. No issues so far. I have the occasional tear in the lining that I have to stitch up up not bad for always wearing them for 2 years.

if you want sidi and can afford the extra bucks, i recom. going to patrick. he pm'ed me some prices and they were lower then some of the national discount retailers. But i tried on both a* and sidi, i like the a* more because i got wide feet and dont have any trouble in those boots.

Ive had my alpinestars for a little over 1 year and love them. Wrecked 2x with them no problems. A little sqeaky at times though.

Sidi make a great boot and they have an off brand called setup I believe that's supposed to be good stuff as well.

Set up are good boots but if you want better quality/protection you have to spend a little more get the Sidi.

i've heard some pretty good stuff about set-up. I was actually gonna buy those but there wasnt any place that carried them for me to try on.

do you own a suit?

42-48 are the most popular sizes. a small suit is a 38 or 40 and 6ft tall people fit in those that are slim or around 150lbs.

those are euro sizes on the websit, if you look, the sizes go all the way up to 60.

euro58 equals US48 and so on.
