im sure some other people are wondering the same thing as me, what is the difference between a supermoto suit and a regular road race suit?

 

[SMR 510RR]

From what i know they are shaped in a more supermoto oriented way(more upright seating position) and usually have a bit more airflow because of the lower speeds. Other than that dont think there is much difference.

I think it's the cut. Supersport suits are cut for the rider to be sitting bent way over, supermoto suits are cut for a more upright position and more flexibility. I had a REALLY hard time getting my foot up in a Dainese suit I had. I hate Dainese suits.

I don't understand why sumo suits never have kneepucks though. So many guys are out there dragging knee every weekend.

My custom GiMoto suit came straight from Italy with all of the CE pads and Knee pucks built right in. Fits better than other suits I have tried on and has the spind/speed hump as well. BTW there are a half dozen or more styles of that KTM suit straight from KTM you pictured. So to answer you question, they are making new suits all of the time, new styles and colors as well. Really no way to answer your question correctly as there soooo many to start with and always new ones coming out.

Thanks for the posts and info. Also don't some SM suits have a leather/ textile mix so as to be cooler and since speeds are not so high in getoffs. Are there any all textile suits? And has anyone wrecked in leather/textile or all textile suits and how did they hold up? Thanks

I have an A*'s TZ-1 one piece that works fine with my supermoto...Now my boots on the other hand...
