    I have a guy named Mike in RI that does all of my repairs. He is about 10 mins over the border from CT. Let me know if you want his contact info.

    When I wanted my suit repaired, I called at least a dozen times to both home and cell phones and sent email. Never received a single answer.

    So, F them IMO, they'll never get my business.

    I talked to him on Saturday, he was supposed to call me at a set time. Never called, I've left 4 messages since and haven't heard back.

    In Jim's defense, he's losing his track fear. He's sub 1:30 now.

    Re: I Need my suit repaired. Were do I go?

    Well, being in need of leather repairs myself I emailed the email address above about repairing my leathers last week and never received a response from them.

    csmutty, I am assuming this is the same person whose phone number you PM'd me correct?

    Anyone have any other suggestions?

    I sent my suit to barnacle bill and he sewed two thick huge leather patches to my ass that have been through several crashes for $50. Turn around was less than a week. The patches are holding up much better than the rest of the suit.

    Re: I Need my suit repaired. Were do I go?

    When I tore some seams on my Alpinestars back in June I went to
    Carbonneau's Shoe Repair
    315 Grafton St. Worcester MA, 01604
    telephone (508) 752 0431

    http://www.shoerepairworcester.com/

    I called and asked if they repaired leather motorcycle suits, and they said they did. They took a little over a week and the price was ~$75, if I recall correctly
    they repaired the seam across the back, a seam in the left elbow, and another seam in the left cuff. Also sewed the leather piping that Alpinestars puts on the sleeves to make the suit look cool...
