I want to buy one for racing. Is sixonesix any good? What about Alpinestars? Are they even worth it?

Cody has been using the 661 suit but thankfully he hasnt "tested: it out:p

He says it doesnt restrict his movement, but is deffinatley holding in alot of heat over just a jersey and chest protector. Rock Gaurd is another brand that is tailored more for MX, but I dont have a link for ya

Thanks for the replay. Don't they already have a chest protector built in already?
I'm looking about this one....

The chest protector is not as good as would have hoped, its very thin and should provided the minimal protection one would want, I believe the rockgaurd unit is superior in this area.

What we liked about these suits is the shoulder, elbow and spine protection!

So they go over the Jersey? Would a Leatt Brace fit with a suit?

There basically jackets with elbow, sholder and back pades. Also a chest protector.

I know that Rockgardn makes a upper body armor, and is also working on trying to make a neck brace similar to the leatt brace to work with his.

Mark is also a very cool person to deal with.
