Just got mine on Friday. Awesome! Great quality, most comfortable leathers ever!
Now, if the snow would just melt!
were thay a custom fit ? If so from where ?
or did u mail order them ?
Give us more details ?
How much were they ?
How is the armor in them ?
Dont mean to bug ya. just curious. ill need some soon.
Actually, TaiChi makes a pretty good product at a reasonable price. What I like about them is that the ones I've seen are made from complete panels, the graphics being printed on. Might sound cheesy, but it's not. It gives the suit more integrity than a pieced one.
Yeah, they are pretty good. Not cheap, but they are better than your Pakistan made Dainese, or Korean built Joe Rockets, etc...
Vanson...
Exactly...
Vanson's still rock, period.
Wasn't I trying to count to 21?
Was just about to order up some Vanson's but...
Since the Mad Cow thing hit the U.S. I'll pass ;D I'll stick to my Healthy Thick skinned cows, Small people, Korean leathers(Joe Rocket).

Vanson rock all the way! I should know, they were put to the test several times last year at over a 100 mph.
Super Dave, is that historic green set of yours still floating around in action from about 1912?

These? http://www.racemotorcycles.com/cgi-bin/board/YaBB.pl?board=ccs1;action=display;num=1073415578;start=4
Actually, I think there's an even more historic set floating around.
Dave's even in one of the Vanson brochures I got the other day riding a ZX-6.
Same set, guys.
Those were one of the first Vanson "Troy Lee" licensed designs for Vanson.
And I'm "the knee" in the Vanson catalog too....
Can we get a link for the taichi leathers?
Dave do you only rent or do u sell them too?
It looks like I might be selling Vanson's. Seems to be a good fit with my program. I just need to work out the details between everything else.
http://www.rs-taichi.com/ I have a set and I love them they fit well!

They are off hte rack, and fit me better than any of the other (Joe Rocket, Dainese, AGV) off the rack suits I found. The single peice construction definitely makes them lighter and more comfortable, and should make them stronger (fewer seams to catch, tear). The guy who runs them was super helpful, they are pretty reasonable for a top shelf suit, and they showed up a day early!
I'm sure Vanson's are great, too but the local guys in Chicago turned me off.
Check out Moto-Heaven's XES suit. Supported racer price is $850 for a custom fitted, custom designed suit. 1.3-1.4 mmthick; double, triple and quadruple stiching. Hard to go wrong at that price.
