Got a 1 piece this week
 

I was able to get a Cortech Latigo suit this week on a deal with our distributor. Brand new, $288 and $15 shipping, so $303 to my door (at work)!!! It may not be absolute top of the line race gear but for the money there is no beating it!! It's actually good quality for the price range, retail they run $579 I think? Now I've got all the gear I need, just need to get the VTX sold and replace it with an FZ1 or something else sporty :D

Looks a wee bit tight. Skip seconds from here on in, and watch lefty if you need to reach for something high.

Congrats! I got a piece this week too! LOL

Really its a cool suit and a bargain. Take the money you saved and get a quality back protector. That will top you off!

It is a bit short in the torso but in the riding position it's perfect and loose enough to move around fine! If I unzip it below my chest when I'm standing it loosens up enough, besides I don't plan on doing any jumping jacks in it :D If I'd gotten a 2x it would have been way too long in the legs and sleeves so until I can afford a custom suit this will do for the $$$ ;)

Looks good, now go drag a knee or something on that VTX! :lol:

nice, now I want a pic similar to your avatar pic but with the suit on

Looks very nice Eric

Nice suit man!

Thanks y'all!

Cutty, I think with a platform puck I could pull it off!! :lol:

man, you are dying for that FZ arent you. Any hopes of scoring it before the rally?

Yeah I am Trip! Don't know if I'll have it bby rally time though. I've got my VTX listed again on Craigslist and VTXOA so maybe I'll get a bite on it soon and be on a sporty my June!!

list it on ebay for shits and giggles, remember to set your reserve

Good luck selling it!

I don't want to have to deal with Ebay Trip, I'd thought about it though. I've heard they're charging a higher percentage now too.

Thanks Racedoll!

Okay...have you considered a trade in at the dealer? Or are they just going to rape you silly?

I should hope so, what with the lettering being on backwards and all...

JC

I wouldn't get raped, I rape saleman ;) just not willing to get another payment right now since I can't afford one. I'm going to get what I can for my bike then find a used one I can afford.

:lol:

Oh I was hoping that your dealership could find you one and then let you trade the VTX in for it kind of thing... I'm sure that you have thought of that and are doing it the proper and more intelligent way!!! BTW are you giving midget rides this year at the rally?

They're cheap bastards where I work, I'd be willing to do a trade if they'd work with me. Last fall they got an 06 ZX14 for $4k, owner wanted my bike with all the accesories on it and $1k to trade. I said no thanks. My bike was worth $4k trade value in the book in stock form and the 14 needed a little work but nothing major.

:lmao: Now that's classy! :lol:

Where did you get that from? i was looking at the exact same suit at Southern Honda last week. It was retail there for $569. The deal you got is awesome. Give me the info man i want it lol.

I work at a dealership man, employee special, sorry.

Shit looks good for 300 bucks. Daymn...

I just bought a custom..1400 bucks.

Looks Dayum good babe!!

Good buy, looks like you've lost some weight there, not forgetting to eat are we?

Awww Rae, I'm gonna blush :lol: I have lost some, not from forgetting to eat but not pigging out so much ;) If I'd just get my lasy ass working out again I could actually get in shape.
