The perfect riding suit.

[barbagris]

Been sort of searching - Not with any real purpose. So far The closest I've found is a VANSONS DRAG SUIT - Would need a couple of exterior pockets On Jacket and Pants but it's extra leather.

Anybody know what a 2-pce Vanson Drag Suit (Off The Shelf) costs? - Can't find a price. I'll guess not cheap.

I have a 2-Pce Vanson setup - but the pants are "inside boot" legs. The Jacket is (I think) the Cobra MK1 - I bought it off their seconds rack in 1998/1999 - was made for Buell showrooms - SHOUTS Buell. It's let down by a lack of pockets.

Your Googlefoo must be fading @barbagris

Give the first shop a ring! But they do not list the Vanson pants. The second shop listed appears to specialise in Vanson.

HUNTING VANSON MARK2 COBRA (Looks to be perforated to me)

Eur 649.00

WITH PROTECTIONS.
More info here re Vanson.
BURNING ROAD STORE. Rock & Biker Shop Zaragoza.: VANSON

Leather jacket tested in the most demanding competition tests and withstand the harshest conditions. High quality skin with double layer in the most sensitive areas and protections on shoulders, elbows and back. These protections are easily removable. Excellent ventilation and protection against the elements. The Vanson Mark2 Cobra represents the culmination of more than thirty years of experience in the manufacture of leather jackets in the United States. It offers the look and construction of monkeys 'racing' with a modified fit for use on the street or on open roads. The most obvious feature of the COBRA is the perforated front and its inner wind curtain just behind the perforations that allow the pilot complete control over the airflow through the jacket.

This shop below seems to specialise in Vanson Leathers and has the whole range with prices. e.g. La Candamina Motorcycles, Taller Harley Davidson, Madrid

I posted a much cheaper one piece perforated leather suit in Clavigers Power ranger suit thread.

Great buy.

Just came across these by accident - my days of full leather suits are well gone - haggis is not a good look!
US$250. 4 color choices
Bilt Predator Perforated Race Suit - Cycle Gear

La Candamina has A LOT - it's true. And they're local. But their markup is, well, ..........
Worth a call I suppose - the Drag Suit is not listed - wanted an idea of US price before I call.

The problem with the Cobra is a lack of decent pockets. There are two interior - but when you open the panels behind the vented leather the panels fill the pockets. So you need a bag etc to carry basics - Cash/cards. Wear a vest you say" - No ventilation air flow then. It's a great riding Jacket - but not if you want to carry anything.

For High Summer I use this Rida-Tec - The Ultimate Summer Motorcycle Jacket - but it's NOT track grade leather.

Ever tried to walk in a 1-pce track suit?

Get a matching helmet and their gloves and your set for Holloween or a Mexican 'Day of the Dead' festival I don't know if they do pants and boots to match.

Na, but I have heard a few road racers talking like jockeys with high pitched voices just put it down to their size!

What point is there in having Googlefoopers to hand, if you actually have to look. Anyway - the sky is grey - I'm depressed - humor me!
