track day leathers
« on: 30 October 2013, 10:12:41 pm »
Hi guys I'd like a bit of info please. I've been given a track day next year as a 65th birthday prezzy and my leathers are a  Spada Magma 2-piece leather suit. Is this suitable or if not is it possible to hire a suit at the circuit. I don't want to shell out for another suit. I'll be on my '08 fz1 fazer.
 
Ta very much

If the leathers have a full zip, I believe they are suitable. Best way is to look on the track website, I'm sure it'll tell you what you need.
Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!

This is the norm whereve ive been to a trackday. As long as it has a 360degree zip connecting the 2 pieces, and not just a back/half zip, they should be fine :)

As Said, best to confirm on the site/call up the specific track though.

Thanks for the prompt response. They do have a full 360 zipper. As I live in Cheshire I'll probably have a trip to Oulton Park on a track day and ask there. Thanks again.
