Finally picked up the Motoport/Cycleport Kevlar Gear after waiting 6 weeks for it to be custom made. This company has been producing kevlar motorcycle gear for several police agencies throughout the world such as NYPD, Portland Police and even has a contract with the Chinese Police. This stuff is top notch and can't think of any other company that produces such high quality gear. This stuff is MUCH stronger than brand new leather, has a lifetime guarentee that if you wear through this gear in a crash and they can't fix it, they will replace it. How many companies out there do you know of with that policy?
Bottom Line: This stuff will save your life. Read up on just of the reviews below, where numbers of riders have crashed at well over 100 mph without a scratch. They also use some of the best armor in the world and have invested millions of dollars on several studies to prove so.
And believe it or not, this gear actually breaths better than your best pair of denim jeans!

Q&A's: $1,000 for jacket, pants and gloves. You can upgrade to Quad Armor in both the jacket and pants, which offer substantial protection. The jacket is the "Marathon" model but made with a longer length identical to the "Ultra II" (Personal Preference, I'd rather have a longer jacket than a zip together unit). The pants are the Ultra II Air Mesh as well. The gear comes with what they call "Tri Armor". Quad is a very substantial upgrade. The Kevlar is much lighter than leather, the heaviest item in the gear is the amour itself. You feel like a tank in this stuff, very confidence inspiring. This gear is also AMA approved for the racetrack and do make 1 pc suits with race pocks. I am always at Hauss of Pizza every Monday if you would like to see and feel the gear in person. If your interested in the gear, here are some other very helpful links.

The owner Wayne is genuinely interested in the best interest of each customer and is very humbled by riders and their family's thanking him for making such excellent gear during crashes that would be much worse wearing anything less. This is perhaps the best investment I have ever made in this motorcycling hobby we have going here.
