I only have one set of leathers at the moment, I didn't have a one piece suit before I committed to the series so I bought some from Ducati while we were in Italy. I'll have two lids, two pairs of boots before we start though. Maybe I should think about gloves as well.

Hrmmm

u r not going to where them nice corsa ducati leathers are you..!! i heard they are a bit heavy and offer to much wind resistance.?

Don't crash in the what ever you do!!!!!, they will fall apart like a cheap watch Mine did.

Well I'm not planning on it, but hopefully they will last a bit better than that

Have a look inside TP, see if you have double stiching on the joints. The reason mine started to fall apart was because of only single stiching.
I don't blame Dainese because they are only being made by them for Ducati.

If anyone is looking for some new leathers I have a one piece astar set that have only been worn a couple of times sat in my wardrobe that I would probably sell.

ok, so technically they are not Ducati colours, but they are good quality

First one was at caddy td3. Lost the front going into charlies one. Right shoulder decked down first. Tore the kevlar from the inside of the arm. Scuffed the leather on the r/h shoulder, it had also started the pull the grenn & red stripe off. The at Rocky at td4, lowside at the crested right hander. This pulled the shoulder joint open to the point that I could not wear them untill they were repaired. I had had them fixed durring the winter and had double stiching put in at certain points.
