Title: 2 pc suit
Post by: blankwall on August 07, 2010, 07:54:05 PM
Is your suit tech inspected before the race? I have a 2 pieace with a full zipper except for in the front where you button your pants. Would thi pass tech?

Yes, your leathers are inspected at Tech.  Bring your leathers, helmet, gloves and boots to Tech when you bring your bike.

As far as 2 piece leathers from the rulebook:

5.1.4 Suits or pants and jacket of leather or Kevlar. Separate pants and
jackets must be joined with snaps or zipper(s) to create the equivalent
of a one-piece suit.

In general - yes (just my opinion) - a 360 degree zipper has that small space where the pants snap together in every 2-piece I've ever seen - tho Alexa has seen a lot more than me
