Piece Leather

Posted on Tuesday, March 25, 2008 in Mens Belts

does a one piece leather racing suite provide the best protection?

ive seen some injuries of guys laying their bikes down, is there different levels of protection with these racing suites or are they all pretty good? i see they go for over a 1000$ on some of them

I presume you meant "suit", not "suite", but I have absolutely no idea what you meant by "injuries of guys laying their bikes down", which, unless some new slang has been developed, means only that the biker purposely put his bike down on the ground without using a kickstand, usually to do a repair or as a sign of respect for a deceased biker. How anyone could possibly get injured (as I presume you meant by "protection") doing that is beyond me, unless they were dumb enough to touch a hot surface or left a gas cap off or similar, or gave themselves a hernia!

Regardless, no amount of motorcycle clothing - - one piece or otherwise - - will protect the wearer from anything other than minor scrapes and accidental contact with the exhaust and other heat sources.

In other words, if you fall off your motorcycle going any faster than 20 mph, you are going to hurt yourself, one way or the other. Anyone who has survived such a fall is incredibly lucky; most consider themselves "lucky" if they escaped with only a broken arm or torn-off ear from not wearing a helmet.

Look at it this way: how many bicyclists have you seen severely injured wearing only short pants, shirts, and a rinky-dink helmet? And they're only averaging 10 mph or so, tops!

Defensive driving on your 300+ pound machine (i.e., not relying on 2-ton cars and multi-ton trucks to watch for you) will protect you far better than any amount of clothing.

P.S. Many bikers consider one-piece outfits effeminate, so, assuming you're a straight male, you might want to reconsider going that route!
