thanks! i was thinking of getting the A* MX-1, but i was scared of sizing issues, i had a TZ-1 38 US jacket before, and it was baggyish. so i went to RMS and they had the laguna seca 1 piece on sale, tried it on, and dang it felt pretty good. no regrets so far. and i think i like the black alot more everytime i look at it, the A* MX-1 had alot of colors going on. its a 48 euro so its 38 US oh and to everyone out there looking for a suit as well. GET PERFORATED. i originally did not want a PERF suit thinking i can damage easier and won't be much diff when i tried out my laguna seca, the perf made a huge diff, it was 10-12 degrees today and i thought i would be really cold since its perf.ed, but actually the suit kept me from sweating, i was pretty warm in the suit. i couldn't imagine non perf when the summer hits during trackdays |
That laguna seca suit looks awesome. How much was it? |
1200, not bad.... pretty even with the A* MX-1 i was looking at, but i'ld have to pay 18% duty on 1300 |
nice suit Noizz! I can't really wear 1pc suits as I'm not slim. I'll look like a one piece of sexy sausage ...like a bratwhurst or even more like a longanisa(filipino sausage) since I'm short :haha: |

any suggestions to where to get gear? for a newbie! |

Go to Modern Motorcycles around Commercial + 12th, the guy I dealt with (Aaron, son of the owner) put together a pretty decent deal for me (gloves + pants + boots). Burnaby Kawasaki is overpriced + half-assed service, and Richmond Motorsports is quality but $$$. I like Imperial Motorcycles too (dealt with Sandra), but their hours aren't so great. I don't know that much, but be sure to try sitting on a bike while trying on the gear. Walking around and riding are pretty different when checking where the armour sits on you. As for my gear: finally just got it all yesterday :D Yes, I am very aware that my helmet + jacket don't match. :) Shark RSX Stunt - Black + Red http://i26.tinypic.com/33b0ow9.jpg Joe Rocket Meteor 5.0 - Blue http://i32.tinypic.com/w9gpwh.jpg Joe Rocket GPX 2.0 - White http://i25.tinypic.com/1qiaok.jpg Joe Rocket Alter Ego - Black http://i28.tinypic.com/okd3s4.jpg Alpinestars SMX-4 - Black http://i26.tinypic.com/2ufa6hx.jpg |
^ Who cares if your gear doesn't match. My friends' gear includes all colors of the rainbow :p |
yeah, doesn't matter if your gear doesn't match. I'd say function > looks :thumbsup: |

Bump. The bike season is coming up! Anyone plan on buying new gear? I'll be shopping for Boots really soon and i'm also looking for some under-armor. Anyone know any locals who sell SixSixOne products? TIA. |
I'll be buying a new jacket. My old one is too big for me now as I lost quite a bit of weight since last season. This time I going to buy leathers :D The only shop I could think of that carries SixSixOne stuff are Baysideperformance and Richmond Motorsports. |
