That suit actually looks pretty comfortable. I'll have to look into that.
I'm not sure what the model Scorpion is supposed to come out. I was at barneys a few days ago and a Rep was there showing it. Way comfortable and very snug. It had lots of vents, Built in shades and some kind of cheek pump system to make it just a bit looser or tighter. Not bad for 200 bones. My Cl-15 is a good lid but every 2 months i have to buy new bad for the inside to keep it snug. its a pain in the ass

The suit is really comfortable after the first couple times you go out with it. First couple times it fucking sucks because it's all new and tense, but that mother will stretch out.

No problem... and I guess you and the gang found the best deal here https://www.motoxoutlet.com/index.as...OD&ProdID=1157

When I tried to order at Moto X they were out of my size and color, but I guess maybe they restocked? So get one while they are hot! I had to order mine from Ridegear instead, but got a similar deal.

Okay, so in my first round I really like this helmet. What do you guys think?
https://www.motoxoutlet.com/index.as...OD&ProdID=1072

I want something as low profile (and solid black) as possible. The less flashy everything is the happier I'll be. I also want something thats lightweight and cool - and this thing is Snell and DOT approved and looks like it really flows some air. Input?

looks like it would do you just fine. However, although black is "cool" try to take into account what other functions your gear serves you when traversing the highways. Bright colors = being seen 100x's easier. If you get a black helmet maybe opt for a bright jacket or something. Just something to think about, protection goes farther than protecting you from the ground, it can help prevent the incident in the first place.

Hmm, thats a very good point, especially since the motorcycle is a "Midnight" Edition (all black).

Anyone know anything about GPX full helmets? I didn't want to wait for one to get here so I bought one form Pep Boys. Says DOT on the back but I dunno if its Snell approved too. Haven't had it on at any speeds to test airflow, but if it sucks there's always a 30 day return policy on it. Feedback?
