Getting fitted for my new track leathers next week ,anybody got experience of airbag systems and is it worth paying extra for ?

If you can afford it, get it.

It will pay for itself many times over if you ever need to use it.

It's not about price really its do they work or just a sales marketing tool

Yes. They work.

Nick me some waterproof gloves when you're there. My last RST ones died after a few years loyal service.

Send me the exact size and model

They were the RST raptor 2 in large

How did they fit Perkles, were they comfy? Well worth the investment for track I've heard good things about them. Did you find out if RST do custom made suits for people without race licences?

The fitting took ages and very thorough ,on and off a bike to check seated position (bimota 2 stroke sex machine) with loads of little adjustments
The airbag works off an app installed on your phone bit high tech for me tbh
I was really surprised how tight leathers should be according to the fitting expert ,they had to peel them off me
Cant remember when they are going to be ready I've been working crazy hours ,I will email them today

Heres what I came up with the designer, a take on BMW M Sport colours and my name on my ass I case I get lost

They look good!

Look good what sort of money are you looking at for a custom airbag suit?

Not sure tbh

Looking good Perkles. Bet they will fit like a glove. Did you find out if you have to have a race licence to get an RST custom made suit?
