    Im looking for a leather race suit new or used, one or two piece.
    My budget is around $400-500.
    I need a size 48 to 50 or XL to XXL.
    Im 5-10 and about 220lbs.

    Let me know if you got something!

    Thank!

    What's there to think about? Komodo is a fantastic suit.

    if u actually get a Komodo suit I agree. But I don't know the user and if that is all legit.

    Also I wouldn't mind trying the suit on so I was kinda hoping to find something local or just get a good deal out of STG since they have the open house coming up.

    Just talked with STG and I think that's the way I go.
    I appreciate all your help!
    See you all in Grattan soon.

    I do know that Komodo was in distress. You could give the guy a call. I think I know who he is but not sure.
    BTW, if you could get a KFX at that price, it's one of the best suits we ever tested at TrackdayMag.com. Of course, STG has a great reputation so if you go there, you'll leave with good stuff that fits right. Good luck and let's ride!

    Here's the test article we did on the Komodo K/FX. http://www.trackdaymag.com/coverstories/258-tested-komodo-kfx-pro-racer-suit.html

    Thanks for all the offers guys but I'm not looking for a new suit anymore.
    I guess I jumped the gun a bit on trying to sell my suit and buy a new one.
    I was on the phone with STG for quite some time weeks ago and after they knew my "technical data" they confirmed the the A* im having should fit me well and is actually the correct size for me.
    So I did wear the suit at home every now and then it it start to fit pretty well now.

    I guess I run with that!
