My spidi jacket seems too short

  1. Hi all,

    So when I had my monster my spidi jacket and trousers (2-piece) were fine, but since having the 748 my jacket seems too short - i.e. it is pulling on me and goes all tight and 'orrible when riding. I guess this is down to being in a more crouched position?

    I have put some weight on since I bought the two piece suit a couple of years back but although its a little 'snugger' now, it was loose on me before so still fits ok when I'm standing up...

    It's almost as if the zip to the trousers needs lowering?

    Does anyone have any suggestions or help please?

    Cheers!

  3. Well, yeah, I COULD....
     
  4. Had exactly the same problem years ago when I bought my first 916. Was more radical than the 851. So I had BKS put a second, lower zip in the jacket of my two piece (and add stretchy kevlar bits). That pretty much solved the problem (although wearing those earlier BKS suits is a bit like wearing an all-over pair of shoes - sort of thick and unforgiving - they weigh a ton).
     
  5. Yeah I was thinking that myself - sort of like an 'extension zip', I think I saw one online that you buy but I can't remember...

    I might ring up a few local places to see how much it would be to put a zip lower or something then
