I can't fit in any women specific... I'm too tall. The thing to keep in mind is the inseam to the knee. On a typical women's suit - the inseam to the knee is about 15inches. That is where the knee armor resides - and in most cases has shin armor right under it. My inseam to the knee is 18inches which would mean the shin armor would be on my kneecap.

Dainese fits me well enough to buy, then have it taylored. But, at that point you might as well call Syed and have a custom fit.

Another option G-Line from Gericke... http://www.femmoto.com/femmotosuitspecs.html

oooo, that viper suit is SWEET!!!

I LOVE the Lady Yu, but at this point in time $1200 is a lil too pricey for me...

Thanks for the input, I am going to keep my eyes open, maybe I can find a decent deal on one of these suits before April...

Nee, i think theres a ladies only track day at Jennings April 19th, you gonna be there?

3.5 hours versus how many more to Nash??? Goober! I'd love to make it, but I got to be choosy considering my time constraints and stuff...

That's what we are doing in nashville. You are going to have to make it out to Tally GP on a monday though if you can. You will get more out of that track day than any other org out there.

I've been looking around since last fall but no one carries this stuff so it's impossible to try on. I'm still debating about a trip down to Ohio (Iron Pony) but if i remember correctly it's 5 hours each way.
