Do it all at once and it is prohibitively expensive, do it piece by piece and you wont even notice it.
+1 I did the exact same thing. Piece by piece and you'll be good to go by track time.

I think a few of the guys are going to the July 4th event. I took off work for the 19th and 20th to go on those dates.

TPM has free gear rental when you register for their ART 1 class.
Just need to have a trailer or truck to tow to the track.

That's called fine print lol. But yeah, better off just getting a suit of your own. Plus you'd probably feel more comfortable in something you've worn a few times instead of a loaner.

Last night, I was very pissed when i saw my good friend riding his cbr. he wears shirt and short. He came up to me. I did yell at him.

Me: DK? WTF are you doing? Squidfuck.
DK: (Laughing) It's too hot out here, man.
Me: So what? OK. Hospital will be your home forever if whatever happens to you.
DK: Haha Come on. Wanna go ride?
Me: Hell no. I don't want to see you get hurt on the road. Text me if you got gears on. I will be up to the mountain (leaving)

you guys get butt hurt to easy... who care what he wears. its his life, his bike, his skin.. just ride the way you wanna ride and stfu.. pretty much taking the fun out of riding with comvos like this.. i would stright up tell you to stfu


iv totalled 2 bikes.. i got hurt more wearing full leathers, boots, gloves, helmet. than i did wearing shorts and a hoodie at higher speeds.

and gear doesnt make you a better rider or a faster rider.. maybe smarter and safer(unless you hit sumthing) but thats the persons own choice to make... i bet i can out ride half if not most ppl on this forum wearing, shorts, t-shirt, my loffer dcs, no socks....

so fucking sick of hearing "o you a squid b.c you arent dieing from heat wearing leathers" get real.
