The Dainese D-Air Racing Misano Suit is one of two race suits equipped with the D-Air airbag system. D-Air utilizes Dainese's intelligent protection system to determine when to inflate the airbag (high side or low side). The Dainese D-Air system consists of the following: Electronic System - triggering algorithm and diagnostics managed by dedicated firmware; three accelerometers; three gyroscopes; a GPS; 2 GB internal memory; user interface (LED); lithium polymer battery. Pneumatic System - Dainese-patented 3D structure airbag; high-pressure airbag with a volume of 4 liters; "cold" technology gas generator.

In addition to providing protection, the D-Air system built into this suit also collects data (lap times, max speed, etc.) allowing you to evaluate your performance on the track. The Misano suit is constructed from cowhide D-Skin 2.0 leather, making it lightweight yet extremely abrasion resistant. Localized perforation throughout the suit allows for excellent ventilation. The Misano incorporates bi-axial elasticated and microelastic inserts for comfort and performance. This suit features aluminum plates on the shoulders and knees and titanium plates on the elbows. The elbows and knees also have composite protectors. Soft protectors on the hips are built into this suit. The Misano suit includes a back protector.

It seems like buying a race suit can be as difficult as buying a new bike, especially with the wide range of options available on the market and retail pricing ranging from $899.95 to $1999.95. That's we created this Alpinestars Suit Guide! Here's a brief summary of each suit to help you decide which suit is best for you. ...but first, let's talk about fit. One of the most common calls we get from customers who just tried on their new suit is that it doesn't fit right and/or it doesn't feel comfortable. More often than not, they are basing this on standing up in their living room and walking around the house. A race suit is not meant for either of these scenarios: they're meant for the rider to be on the bike and carving up the track. The first thing we're going to ask you when you call with concerns about the fitment is: how does it feel on the bike? When you first put on your new suit, it's going to take a lot of work and you're probably going to look ridiculous putting it on. We've all been there! After you get your suit zipped up, go out to your bike and sit on it. Get into a tuck, then position yourself like you're going to drag knee (be careful and make sure it's on a rear stand or have a buddy help hold the bike). Does it feel comfortable now? Is it hindering your movement at all? These are questions to ask yourself before determining if the fit is good or not. If you think it's still not fitting right, give us a call and we'll be more than happy to answer any questions you have or exchange for a different size. Ladies, we have suit options for you too! Check out all of the Alpinestars women's race suits here. Give us a call if you have questions about sizing or if you'd like to purchase a suit.

One of the top selling suits last year from Alpinestars is back in 2014 with two new colorways and now available from Riders Discount! The Alpinestars Orbiter Leather Suit puts an emphasis on providing comfortable protection. Equally at home at track days, canyon carving or the street, the Orbiter is a great option for those looking to find an all around suit. It accomplishes this by combining track-tested Alpinestars protection technology with some new ergonomic features that are unique to this model. The Orbiter is constructed using premium 1.3mm full-grain leather that is stitched together with heavy-duty, reinforced seams for maximum durability. Impact protection is provided by removable CE-certified protectors under the leather at the elbows, shoulders, knees/shins. The knee/shin protectors attach using a floating system that lets you place them where you need them to be for optimal coverage. Additional protection can be added to the back by connecting a Bionic Race back protector to one of the three snaps found towards the top of the spine. These tried and true methods of protection are not brand new to Alpinestars suits, but they are highly effective and have been used for a reason. Ergonomically, the Orbiter starts to break away from the norm. Looking at the front of the suit, it is obvious that something is different. The front zipper is off center and runs up to the side of the collar instead of running right up the center. This, combined with the 3D mesh panel at the top of the front panel, a copious amount of stretch materials, and accordion stretch leather segments make the Orbiter an extremely comfortable suit to wear - whether you’re on the bike or off. It also vents air very effectively through the aforementioned 3D mesh on the front, as well as the back of the collar. Cooling is aided further by the ventilated back hump and perforated leather on the front, arms and back. No matter how much airflow a suit has, things do need to be freshened up from time to time and a removable mesh liner makes washing it a breeze. Thanks to the top-knotch ergonomic features, cooling, and protection, the Alpinestars Orbiter suit is one of the best all around suits out there. You can get expert sizing advice and more information about ordering by getting in touch with MIKE through the forum or by calling 866.931.6644 ext. 804. Is email more convenient? Feel free to send those to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM and we’ll get back to you right away! The Orbiter has an MSRP of $899.95 and is available in the White/Red shown here, and Black/Grey/Red. The 2013 colorways are also available if you'd like to see additional options. A unique off-center zipper and copious amounts of stretch material help make the Orbiter very comfortable off the bike, as well as on. The front also features 3D mesh at the top and perforated leather in the center.

So I appreciate when a business does a great job in a quick time frame, so I think Barnacle Bill deserves a review here. I shipped my new-to-me leathers off to Bill last Monday for alterations, after speaking with him by telephone the day before. Super nice guy and we ended up just bullshitting about whatever for a while. I bought a size 48/58 set of Alpinestars MX-1 leathers (thanks, Cox!) that fit great in the torso and shoulders, but had a little more room than I'd like in the legs and arms. I previously wore a 46/56 Astars Carver suit that was a little tight everywhere and the arms were a touch short. So Bill had me take some simple measurements and off they went. Bill called me on Wednesday just to confirm the measurements and exactly what we were doing to the suit. To my surprise, the suit showed up at my door today, exactly one week from the time I shipped them off! That's pretty awesome in my eyes, especially coming from a busy guy at the start of race season and considering I've heard a lot of horror stories about stuff like this taking a lot longer than that (from other random vendors of various parts and gear). Even better, this suit fits like a freakin glove! We ended up taking out 2 inches from the length of the thighs bringing up the knees to where they're supposed to sit, 1 inch of width from the thighs snugging them up, and about an inch and a quarter of width out of the arms. And all of this for a very reasonable price. I finally have a suit that is comfortable but snug everywhere that it should be. Fits like a full custom in my opinion. So if you're in need of alterations, repairs, or a custom suit, I wouldn't hesitate to contact Barnacle Bill.

You may not be able to walk into a dealership and leave with a MotoGP prototype bike like Jorge Lorenzo’s Yamaha YZR-M1 or the Honda RC213V of Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa, but you can give Riders Discount a call and have the same suit worn by some of the best riders in the world delivered right to your door (minus the custom fit, of course) - the Alpinestars Race Replica. The Alpinestars Race Replica is the brand’s flagship suit. It is constructed using their premium, full grain, 1.3mm leather for the highest level of abrasion resistance and durability. The leather pieces are sewn together into an aggressive race fit using multiple-stitched main seams that are extremely resistant to tearing. Perforation is abundant on the large leather panels, but it is not found everywhere. Alpinestars carefully thought out the layout of the perforations in order to provide a great deal of ventilation without reducing the strength of the leather by punching too many holes in it. For this reason, you will find that there are no perforations next to the seams, or in high risk abrasion zones. In addition to high-grade leather, a variety of armor types beef up the protection provided by the Race Replica. Starting at the top of the suit, the shoulders have hard, thermoplastic molded shoulder protectors that not only provide a great deal of impact protection, but also vent air through the open channels in the shell. Alpinestars has been involved with top riders for years, and this means that they have a gathered a lot data from numerous crashes. This data, combined with their own research means that they are very familiar with the parts of the body that touch down first and most often in a crash. This is why they beefed up the elbows and forearms by using a seamless leather construction with external PU protectors on top. These take the brunt of the impact and slide instead of catching the pavement. Impact energy is further mitigated by the CE certified armor and energy absorbing foam found underneath the leather. Inside the torso, Alpinestars provides a CE level 2 back protector and a chest protector. The chest also has pockets that allow you to easily add the Bionic Chest Guards if you choose to do so. Continuing down the suit, you will find the tried and true knee protectors that will be familiar to those that have worn the previous generation suit. Alpinestars did not carry these over to the new suit because they are cutting corners, they did so because they are highly effective. External TPU armor wraps around the knee and CE certified protectors with energy absorbing foam backs it up underneath. One unique aspect of these knee protectors is the is the soft grip patch found on the inner surface of each of each leg that helps give you better contact with the bike. All of this protection means that the suit isn't exactly lightweight, but this doesn’t mean it’s uncomfortable. The new Race Replica is a stiff suit at first and many think it is too small when they first try it on, but it stretches and conforms to your body very quickly thanks to the abundant leather and Kevlar stretch panels. Torso mobility is aided by the new leather stretch panels encircling the shoulder and connecting to the collar. These same panels branch off and run down down the side of the body to the waist. The lower body is flexible due to the use of Kevlar stretch material in the crotch and back of the legs, but this ends at the knee. Leather stretch panels take over again at that point to surround the knee armor and cover the entire calf. The calf is another area that generally feels tight the first time the suit is worn, but it stretches to your size quickly. One of the reasons that you find the additional stretch panels in the upper body is the optional Tech Air airbag system. This system is a great piece of technology that Alpinestars has been developing for more than 10 years. It uses sensors and a computer to constantly monitor rider movement so that it can determine if a crash is imminent by recognizing movements that deviate from the norm. In the event that a crash is going to happen, the airbags can be deployed in less than .05 seconds to protect the shoulders and collarbones. The Tech Air Airbag system is not available through dealers at this time and must be purchased directly through Alpinestars themselves. The Alpinestars Racing Replica suit is the best mass produced suit on the market, whether you use the airbag system or not, and we can’t recommend it highly enough. You can inquire about yours by getting in touch with MIKE through the forum or by calling 866.931.6644 ext. 804. If email is more convenient for you, feel free to send one to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM and we’ll get back to you right away! This suit is available in Black, White/Red, and the Black/White/Yellow shown here. MSRP $2899.95 The front of the suit is perforated heavily, but it is broken up by solid sections so that it doesn't reduce the strength of the leather. Notice how the perforations don't reach the seams. Leather stretch panels make this a flexible suit and give the additional expansion room necessary for the optional Tech Air Airbag system. The collar is soft for comfort and it lets air flow right through it. The hump also catches air and sends it down your back to help keep you cool. The forearm features GP-style protection through the elbow, plus a seamless piece of leather that covers the padding underneath. Shoulder armor serves double-duty by protecting and channeling air into the suit. The knee armor serves a dual-purpose as well. It not only protects, but also helps you grip your bike. The grey portion shown on the inside of this knee is the softer grip pad.

Buying a race suit can be nearly as difficult as buying a motorcycle it seems. And with retail pricing ranging from $799.95 to $2899.95 for Alpinestars suits, it is a decision that isn't taken lightly. We're going to go over the available Alpinestars suits to help better inform you on each one and hopefully allow you to feel more comfortable about your purchase. First, let's talk about fit. One of the most common calls we get from customers who just tried on their new suit is that it doesn't fit right and/or it doesn't feel comfortable. More often than not, they are basing this from standing up in their living room and walking around the house. A race suit is not meant for either of these scenarios, they're meant for the rider to be on the bike and carving up the track. The first thing we're going to ask you when you call with concerns about the fitment is how does it feel on the bike? When you first put on your new suit, it's going to take a lot of work and you're going to look ridiculous putting it on, that's a given. We've all been there. After you get your suit zipped up, get out to your bike and sit on it. Get in a tuck, get your butt off like you're going to drag knee (be careful and make sure it's on a rear stand or have a buddy help hold the bike). Does it feel comfortable now? Is it hindering your movement at all? These are questions to ask yourself before determining if the fit is good, or if the fit is off. If you think it's still not fitting right, give us a call and we'll be more than happy to answer any questions you have or exchange for a different size. Ladies, we have suit options for you too. Give us a call if you need help with sizing or if you'd like to purchase a suit. The complete Alpinestars' suit line covers a range of riding styles, from Sunday morning cruises to WSBK level race suits. First up is the Alpinestars Motegi Suit - Alpinestars Motegi Suit - $799.95 MSRP -- Entry level -- Motegi two piece options available -- Alpinestars Motegi Suit Full Review The new entry level suit from Alpinestars. This is a great all-around suit that is perfect for carving canyons or tackling a trackday. Alpinestars designed the Motegi with a less aggressive cut than the ultra-aggressive higher end suits, meaning that it is possible to stand up off of the bike without it feeling like a workout. This doesn’t mean that it is any less comfortable on the bike, however. The Motegi features durable Aramidic stretch panels that run down the length of the underarms, sides of the torso, crotch and back of the legs for increased mobility and comfort on longer rides. Available in black/white, white/black, black/white/red, white/black/red, black/white/yellow (pictured here), and black/white/gold Alpinestars SP-1 Suit - $899.95 MSRP -- Entry - Intermediate level -- Closeout -- Alpinestars SP-1 Suit Full Review The SP-1 suit from Alpinestars is a full-on race suit and one of our most popular selling suits. It's easy to see why they've kept this suit in their lineup since 2009. CE-approved GP armor is found in the knees, elbows, and shoulders and has the option of adding in the Alpinestars Bionic Race back protector and Bionic Race chest guards for even more protection. This suit is heavily perforated in the chest, legs, arms, back, and the race hump, and perfect for riders in the warmer climates or the humid mid-west climates. Available in black, or white/black (limited sizes) Alpinestars Orbiter Suit - $899.95 -- Intermediate -- Alpinestars Orbiter Suit Full Review The Alpinestars Orbiter suit puts an emphasis on providing a comfortable riding suit that can handle multitudes of riding styles. This suit is the best all-around suit offered by Alpinestars. Perfect whether you're just out for a ride, carving up the canyons, or at a track day. Alpinestars has accomplished this by incorporating proven protection technology with new ergonomic features such as an offset zipper and copious amounts of stretch material, such as across the chest. The Orbiter is available in the black/white/red shown here, and black/white. Alpinestars GP Pro Suit - $1199.95 MSRP -- Intermediate - Advanced -- GP-Pro two piece option available -- Alpinestars GP Pro Suit Full Review One of the first suits we see in the Alpinestars collection to have heavy influences from MotoGP and WSBK development. This suit has DFS (Dynamic Friction Shield) protectors in the shoulders and elbows. Whether you drag your elbow on purpose or by accident is your choice, but at least you'll be protected! A removable, washable mesh liner will help keep this suit fresh for long into its wearable life. Also notable with this suit is a 3D mesh sleeve and ankle cuffs for breathability and added comfort with gloves and boots. Available from Riders Discount in black/white/red (shown here), black/white/grey, and black/white/hi-viz yellow. TheGP Pro two-piece suit option is available as well in black, and black/white/grey, however it is not perforated. Alpinestars Atem Suit - $1499.95 MSRP -- Advanced -- CE-approved -- Alpinestars Atem Suit full review As briefly noted, the Alpinestars Atem suit is CE-approved. Not just the armor or specific areas of the suit, the entire suit is CE-approved. This is without a doubt one of the safest suits ever produced. Alpinestars has accomplished this incredible safety rating using high-grade, highly abrasion resistant leather with additional leather reinforcements in impact zones. Adding to the protection is an array of armor that use much of the same technology found in the Race Replica suit including DFS protectors on the shoulders, elbows, and knees. The Atem is a suit that, while expensive, actually offers a great deal of bang for the buck. There aren’t currently any other suits that offer this kind of high-end tech at a price near it. On top of that, we think it’s one of the best looking suits on the market! Available in black/white/red (shown here), and black/white and black/white/yellow.

Unfortunately, I'm getting out of racing for a little while. Figured I'd sell this stuff off and use the money for school instead of letting it just sit. I'm not sure if this allowed or not, but since I can't post pictures on this site for some reason I'm directing you to the Wera classifieds for more information. Just go to race gear and search it or whatever. Pics and all the details are there. Casper, feel free to reprimand me with a good spanking if you wish.
