-- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS --
Is the Valentino Rossi Aprilia GP 1998 Leather Suit suitable for track days?
This suit is primarily designed for track and high-performance riding use. Top grain cowhide and CE-approved external protectors match common racing standards. It includes pre-curved sleeves and an aerodynamic hump option for posture. The suit also has reinforced leather panels on shoulders knees and hips. You can wear it on the street but expect a race fit. If you plan many long tours consider a more ventilated touring suit. Track riders and sport riders who want authentic race leathers will benefit most. Contact our sizing team for fit guidance and race suit adjustments.
What materials and armor are used in this motorcycle race suit?
The outer shell uses top grain cowhide leather at 1.2 to 1.3 mm. Accordion leather panels and stretch Cordura improve mobility in key areas. The lining is polyester mesh for comfort and basic airflow against your skin. Armor is removable dual density at shoulders elbows and knees. A CE-approved removable spine piece is included to comply with standards. Extra leather layers and foam padding add abrasion resistance and structure. Optional rubber padding and aerodynamic hump are available on request. All external protectors meet CE approval for impact performance categories. This combination balances durability mobility and compliance for serious riders.
How do I choose the correct size for a one-piece race suit?
Choose size based on chest waist height and shoulder measurements. The suit runs in a race cut with pre-curved sleeves. Expect a snug fit that keeps armor positioned during riding. Allow slight mobility room in the shoulders and crotch for comfort. If between sizes select the larger size for longer rides. Measure over a thin shirt for accurate chest and waist numbers. Contact our sizing team with your measurements for tailored recommendations. We can advise on altering cuffs calves and neck straps for fit. Armors are removable which helps fit adjustments at home or at shop.
Can I use this race suit for street riding and occasional touring?
Yes you can wear this race suit on street rides occasionally. Keep in mind it is optimized for track ergonomics and protection placement. Ventilation is limited compared to touring jackets with full perforation. Long hot commutes may feel less comfortable than a touring setup. For mixed use consider adding a thin base layer for temperature control. Street use is good for short rides and motorcycle events. Always keep legal road gear like boots gloves and a certified helmet. Reflective patches can be added for better visibility at night. Remove the aerodynamic hump if you prefer less bulk on the street.
What is the proper cleaning and maintenance routine for the leather suit?
Remove the armor and knee sliders before you clean the suit. Wipe the leather with a damp cloth and mild leather cleaner. Avoid machine washing and heavy detergents that dry out the hide. Use a quality leather conditioner sparingly to keep the leather supple. Allow the suit to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight heat. Store on a wide hanger to preserve shape and avoid creases. Reinstall armor when fully dry and check seams for any wear. For deep cleaning consult a professional leather service experienced with race suits.
