-- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS --

Is the Wes Cooley Kawasaki AMA 1983 Leather Suit true to size?
Short answer: the suit generally fits true to size for racers. Measure your chest, waist, and hips before choosing a size. Compare those numbers to our sizing chart for best match. The suit uses a pre-curved race cut for proper riding posture. That race cut feels snug while you are standing upright. Removable armor and lining add a bit of bulk to fit. If you plan to wear thermal layers, consider sizing up one size. Velcro neck, cuff, and calf straps help fine tune the fit. If between sizes, contact us for fit advice or tailoring options.
What protection features are built into this Kawasaki leather suit?
Short answer: it includes multiple CE-approved protectors and reinforced leather panels. Top-grain cowhide leather is 1.2 to 1.3 millimeters thick. There are extra leather layers stitched over shoulders, elbows, knees, and hips. Dual-density CE armor is removable at shoulders, elbows, and knees. A removable dual-density spine protector is included for impact management. Foam padding under the leather softens contact forces on impact zones. Critical seams use dual and triple stitching for added strength. Removable knee sliders and semi auto-lock YKK zippers are standard. These features suit track riders and aggressive street riders seeking robust race-style protection.
Can I wear this suit on both the track and the street?
Short answer: it is designed for track use but can be ridden on the street. The race cut and pre-curved sleeves prioritize a riding tuck and aerodynamics. CE-approved armor and reinforced panels meet race and safety preferences. There is less focus on touring comfort and airflow than on track performance. Local road laws vary regarding race suits and removable sliders. For comfortable street use, choose the correct size and consider adding a breathable base layer. This suit is best for riders who do track days and occasional spirited street riding.
How should I clean and maintain a Kawasaki race suit?
Short answer: clean gently, condition leather, and avoid machine washing. Wipe surface dirt with a damp cloth after each use. Remove the CE armor before any deep cleaning procedures. Use a dedicated leather cleaner and apply conditioner sparingly. Let the suit dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Lubricate YKK zippers and check Velcro straps for wear. For heavy soil or stains, seek professional leather cleaning. Store the suit on a wide hanger in a breathable garment bag. Regular care preserves leather flexibility and protective properties.
Does the suit have ventilation or comfort features for hot weather?
Short answer: it uses a polyester mesh lining and stretch panels to aid airflow. The suit includes accordion panels at the back and knees for movement. Stretchable Cordura areas increase comfort and reduce binding during riding. There are no large factory-cut vent ports like touring jackets. For very hot climates, use a moisture-wicking base layer under the suit. We can discuss custom ventilation options through our workshop if you need modifications. This design balances race fit with basic breathability for track and short street rides.
