Anyone can recommend a good two piece suit without spending a lot of crash 500 - 600 is what I am willing to spend.
Thanks
If I were shopping today for a general use two-piece leather outfit for street and the once a yearish track day at that price point I'd do Tourmaster Apex air pants and a magnum air jacket.
perfed for hot days. liner for cool days. full circumference zipper. armor. subtle styling.

I just bought a 2 piece AGV sport leather suit. Only had it on twice just riding around. I'm not experianced when it comes to purchasing gear. working on it tho). My suit may be a bit big but the arms and legs are long enough and the dearler said it fit. I trust him so Ok.
Mine is real comfy on the bike, I am going to try riding to work in it with clothes under it this winter. Jeans fleece etc. It's not perfed but still has breathable panels. Looked at an over suit but this was a good price and wanted it more.

Your suit is a bit big for you... The suit is supposed to fit real tight at first when you are on the bike bc the leather will break in in time, comforming to the shape of your body. If you pick a size that you feel a little loose at first, the suit will expand and be too big for you in the long run; this will in turn detract from the protection that it's supposed to give you.
Yep, I know you are right --- but--- the next size down didn't have the lenght I need in the arms and legs. Hopefully it will break in and not be real bad. If it streaches to much I don't know what to do. Maybe ride in the rain with it. I'm finding out tall skinny thin people are not the manufacters favorite people.
