Anyone try the new MotoGP compression suit?

I wear a Spidi Hook Suit, but I'm out growing it. It's getting super tight in the chest and shoulder area. In fact, it's pinching my traps when I'm really pushing hard into a corner at the track. It's a safety issue, at least that's what I'm telling my wife!

So, on to the question. I've been reading alot of good reviews on the net, about the new MotoGP compression suit. I wanted to know if anyone has one yet or has seen one? What did you guys think of it?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Rick

Wow, 35 views and no comments on the suit.

Well, I guess I'll bite the bullet and purchase one tomorrow from Flatout (site sponsor)! I'll be the test dummy and see how it fits and compare it to my Spidi suit.

I'm tempted to get one, too. $700 for a kangaroo suit is pretty cheap. I just wonder if you could remove the 'Moto GP' stuff?
