    Leather suit opnion please

    I did a search and did not find anything here on AXO Dragon leathers like these: AXO Dragon leather suits from RideGear.com - Leathers and other gear for

    A local shop has a couple sets for $499 and I'm looking for any experience with them - clearly not the best out there and yes I do know what crashing /road rash feels like (I have a grafted on ear from car ejection 20 years ago to prove it ) but I'm just looking to do a couple of track days (do they qualify?) a year and will surely wear them on long rides in lieu of my Joe Rocket Ballistic coat. They are perf'd, pretty light compared to Motophoria I tried on recently(non perf same price). I was a little surprised how much area was spandex but that goes with the price i guess. Thanks in advance for any help.

    oh ya, sizing question too. I got into a size 44 but the 46 was more comfortable. how tight should they be? I am 5'9 180lbs. The Motophoria (size 50 I think) were extremely tight on my calves but baggy on my ass. Thanks
