Me at my first track day with old 636. My first track day is this weekend with the RR and my new Arai Sete Gibernau RX-7 helmet instead of the Dr's lid.

well, not on my CBR here.... and have upgraded a couple bits since then.
New Arlen Ness Ergo-3 suit. Sidi Vertigo Perf'ed.
I've since got the Vortice, will give them a go soon.
The gloves are probably the next thing. These are the
Kushitani GPR5 , looking at the
GPR6 now.
At some point I'll get a Kushitani suit, but they are a bit pricey, especially with custom bits.... hmm....someday....
Helmet, same X-11 as before. Have since got the same X-11 but in the Red/Black vermuelen which looks cool.... will break that out later in the year.

Its great. Keeps me cool for the summer temps in socal. You can feel the air flow through the center vents and it keeps my back dry in the hot day. It def does not keep you warm. There is no liner for keeping warm,but it doesnt get cold here anyway.

Not sure what you are asking about in terms of being OK, but fwiw when leathers are long, first thing is remember they will go up a bit in a crouch position and second, my A* are long ish as well and on some boots this makes it harder to put on. Sidi vertigo in my case. Also, when all on, you can feel where the suit ends in the boots. Not painful, just something I noticed which may or may not bug you.

I havent tried them on with my boots yet. Vortices. But it just feels like the kness part is a bit saggy and i pulled that secton up a bit to compensate. Overall they sag about 1-2 inch lower then my knee if i dont pull it up.

Hrmm, with Sidi Vortice's it might be a bit uncomfortable because of the inner heel padding area. I guess you could pull the pant legs up a bit before inserting your feet so that the bottom of the pants will be at your desired location. But for safety purposes, if the pants don't fit properly, the armor is more likely to move around if you go down But they look snug on you, so you might be okay. Possible to go down a size?

Cant zise down due to my above average thigh size. It fits snug overall, just the knee sags a bit. But i blame it to the damn bicycing i do. That and being 5"7 asian lol. Just a bit taller and perfect fit. Ill post with boots later after work

SupremeGC you will need that slack when on the bike or it will paralize your feet on the pegs from the knee pressure.

You will have to play with where the knee pads are adjusted in their pockets as most are adjustable. You have to pull some slack up out of the boots when standing to be correct when in the crouched position on the bike.

I think as long as the pants come up a little bit to allow to fit inside the boots it will be ok.

The knees came up with the boots! Feels Perfect now! I can probably move the pants up a tad so that the knee puck is in the correct placement instead of right above the boot.
