It might sound a little funny, but my love for custom built gear started with my love of medieval knights. Knights established rank and prestige via the intricacies of their armor, each article of which was unique and built just for the wearer. It has been said that the motorcycle rider is the closest thing to a modern day medieval knight, dressed in bespoke protective armor and perched upon an iron horse ready to battle fierce competition. We like to think of ourselves as modern-day armor blacksmiths here to serve you, the modern-day knight. We want you to feel a sense of pride and security every time you suit up for battle. That is why we design and construct every suit and gauntlet without compromise.

Will there be a both at AMP this weekend?
Fun times, cool to see you branch out into other markets
Super STOKED! I just ordered my first Bison Custom Suit. I went with the Thor2, Samurai pattern, in the red, white, and black colors. Placed the order on 12 Dec, had my initial design review on 17 Dec, virtual measurement fitting 19 Dec, and now I just have to sit back, be patient and wait for delivery. Why I didn't do this sooner I have no idea. I have spent 2.5× the amount on too tight AStars. Two-piece Sedici suits that fit chest, legs, and butt but are always too long. Now I will have a custom fit Bison race suit, that based off this video is going to look good for seasons to come.
This was a very informative video! It opened up a new perspective to race suit design for me. Thanks for making it. My Bison race suit is still working / looking excellent! <Cheers, Joe>

So awesome! Thanks for the tutorial! I have a Dainese suit that I would like to change the Red-Fluoro panels to KTM orange. Any recommendations? Deglaze, sand, white base or just orange? What paint best approximates KTM orange? Thanks in advance!
Yes! Deglaze and light sanding will help it last longer! As for color, we don't have a direct recommendation so we would recommend going to hobby lobby and choosing whichever one you like best!
@ thank you very much! Such a great tutorial!
Hey do you have any tips for stretch panels?
Unfortunately stretch panels are tricky! We would just recommend stretching it out and getting paint in all of the crevices.
I’m currently getting my second Pakistani leather suit made for street luge racing but you made a comment just now about why would that matter whether your suit came from Pakistan or made in America well simply put because some people would rather have their suit and made in America, knowing they’re keeping their money within the country, helping to support their economy It’s usually nothing personal which is why I have no problem working with some of these Pakistani guys that have been amazing but each to their own I completely understand warning American made products because mostly across-the-board I as well want the same thing
In a perfect world, we would make Bison suits and gloves in America with the same quality and craftsmanship we get from our overseas factory. Unfortunately leatherworking is all but dead as an American trade - especially when it comes to motorcycle racing gear. To each their own indeed... The American products that are out there are quality suits and jackets but they're heavy, cumbersome and look dated. That's not a knock on them, it just is what it is. The industry has not advanced in America for decades because the truth is, the market here is very small compared to other parts of the world where motorcycles are much more ingrained in the culture.
Amazing job Rob. The suit looks amazing. Could Bison also work on gears for off road electric unicycles(EUC) riders? We EUC riders have similar requirements as the eSkootr riders but we need more protection because we are higher from the ground. For example, the gloves need wrist guards in them so we do not break our wrists when we fall. Also, I'm deeply dissatisfied with all the helmets on the market because the field of view (FOV) in most of the helmets are totally crap. You can see forward but not down, left or right making them dangerous in the traffic if you do not have side mirrors (witch we do not). So it would be awesome if bison could do a helmet with better FOV. I would by it. Subscribed to this channel and expect many awesome protection products.
Thank you so much! EUC/OneWheel gear is something we have talked about as this eSC kit would indeed translate easily with some tweaks. I love the idea of a wrist guard in the glove. If you could shoot me an email at rlackey@bisontrack.com I would love to chat more about the ideal type of gear for EUC. Now about helmets... Unfortunately helmets are the only piece of gear we have no plans to make in-house. We do, however, have a close relationship with KYT helmet! I will pass this feedback on to them and see if they are in a position to look at developing something for that segment.
Dork Sport O' The Century. LOL
I see your position and raise you hobby horse competitions. ;) haha
Now I don't feel as bad about semi-looping the scooter at headquarters a while back!

Always! LOL
Well Rob, that is some serious dedication. My respect for you just went up a couple notches. 😉 That is only one of the many reasons I chose to invest in a custom Thor.2 suit. I am fully confident that if/when I go down I will be very well protected. By the way Rob, my suit was delivered today and it looks amazing and fits great! Thank you Rob and keep yourself safe! 😃👍❤🏍🦬 Randy
That's awesome to hear that you got the suit and love it! Thank you so much for your business. <3 Hope to see you at Loudon in 2025!
@@BisonTrackGear Definitely will see you(and hopefully at least some of the BISON team) at Loudon! 😃👍❤🏍🦬
Legend!!!! Suit looks bad ass
Thank you! The final suit looks pretty different in terms of fit, but uses the same parts and overall layout. It will be so cool seeing all the different teams' kits on the grid!
Hope y'all are okay with the storms they had there, in Valencia anyways...
Thank you! Staying safe!
Bison Gear, best fit, best material and quality at a fair price. I have had my gear for two years now and love the suit
Thank you, Michael!
If you want quality, by US made leather, the place where the product ships from is just meaningless.
If you want US-made leathers, you're limiting yourself in many ways. With all due respect to the last couple of companies assembling leathers here in the states, the skill of leatherworking in the US has all but dried up and the technology is stuck in the past. You'll have a great suit in terms of workmanship and thickness of the leather itself however these suits and jackets are heavy and lack newer methods of construction and the more advanced materials allowing for light weight and mobility. You'll also pay much more for that gear. Keep in mind, in the infancy of starting this company we did intend to utilize USA production but we found quickly that the cost of labor combined with the lack of specific skills needed to make jackets and suits for motorcycle riding ruled this out very quickly. If you want a US-made product I can't fault you a bit and I love that but to be frank, it's more an act of patriotism than it is getting a better product.
😅😅😅
I have never seen one good quality leather jacket made in Pakistan or in Afghanistan, they are specialized in exporting low quality leather, lining and hardware, they look ok in their websites but all these companies such as fjackets, angel jackets, the jacket maker are not worth the cost of shipping you pay. Stay away from these garbage quality products, save some money and buy a decent quality product, you will pay 500+ but you won't regret purchasing a decent quality product rather than these low quality jackets.
We think the statement of quality being better outside of Pakistan is subjective. It's all about finding a good factory. There are good and bad in both countries, and we have found an amazing factory in Pakistan! We know our quality is amazing and we would love you to try for yourself as well!
Great!!!! Tks
Thank you too!
Congrats!!!! That’s awesome good luck
Thank you!!
@@BisonTrackGear absolutely bro, believe it or not your an inspiration bro, keep pushing be rooting for you.
No uniformity in sizing. Zippers on womwn's side.
Our manufacturer is absolutely amazing and we have a great line of open communication with them. We offer custom sizing, and rarely have fitment issues. If those issues do arise, we have the best fitment guarantee on the market, so you'll be covered no matter what!
Thanks for this. This was my main question before pushing on and purchasing.
Glad it was helpful!
I've NEVER found a glove that fits. My fingers are short so the ends can be bent over and my wrist is wide so I need Small/Medium for finger length and XLarge to be able to put them on!
It sounds like a custom pair would be a great option for you! We offer custom sizing as well. www.bisontrack.com
Hey i just received alpinestar missile v2 2 piece suit yesterday size 50 ! My chest is 99 cms ! I can move my hands to my head but its very tought to remove the jacket from the hands ! Should i return size 50 ?
We aren't aware of AlpineStars policies, so we would recommend getting in touch with them! When you're ready for a Bison suit, we've got you covered!
Nice gloves and nice shirt you wear 🥰
Have recently beem checking out the Bison gear line. You can thank the talented Kayla Yaakov for the business lead here.
Kayla is great!
Keep teasing me showing these vegan jackets and adventure gear. lol
Your turn for some of your own!
@@BisonTrackGear l don’t see any listed on the website.
You cannot go wrong with Bison Gear trust me I know
Thanks man!
That Orange and Black though!!!!!! Vegan or adventure gear is def in my future.
Nobody said that
We sure did!
wow, thats a really detailed vid on this topic on youtube so far. Is this measurement for race fit or comfort fit? How can i vary btw them. I want to opt for comfirt fit but it seems this guide was for race fit, please elaborate.
For race fit, our factory will use these exact numbers. For comfort fit, they will add necessary centimeters to a few different areas of the suit!
I don’t have an airbrush, but would a rattle can work?
Our personal experience with rattle can acrylic hasn't been great. Lots of overspray and uneven coverage.
I found a peanut shaped kids exercise ball 80cm x 40cm that was a perfect shape and size to stretch my suit. Done in 20 minutes. I’d been trying to stretch it for days by wearing increasing numbers and thicknesses of sweatpants and tops inside the suit. Wish I’d seen this video ages ago.
We're so glad that we were able to help! That method is one our faves!
Do you still sell KYT tt course cheek/crown pads?
Yes we do!
@@BisonTrackGear I see, sadly you don't do orders for the Netherlands.
Great video. I've got a question. Some websites say to take measurements' while standing? I am confused between standing and riding posture measurement's. Wouldnt it be very restrictive in riding position if we take measurement's while standing and similarly on the opposite side?
The only measurements we take in a riding position are #7 and 8 - upper and lower thigh. The reason for this is simply to put some weight on the legs and get the thighs flexed. Taking these two measurements in this position ensures the suit will be comfortable when you're on the bike and putting weight on the pegs. Note that measurements #10, 16 and 18 (calves, bicep and forearm) are also taken with the muscles flexed.
Last one is my favourite suit 😊
Pretty sick!
Would like to see it suited up 😁
Very nice gloves ! ❤
Glad you like them!
That's the glove I will be looking at. Thanks Rob and keep yourself safe! 😃👍❤🏍 Randy

Handsome boys ❤❤❤
I searched this because trying to get a 90% black 10% KTM orange Alpinestars kit is very expensive. I thought why not get the cheap black & white one and dye the A*...I have an airbrush too 😜
You've got this!
First time suit buyer I felt when I threw my suit on it felt abit loose around the knee is it suppose to be abit tight there or?
It should allow you room to bend and crouch, but it shouldn't be loose enough to move the hardshell protection on the suit. The protection should move in the event of a crash.
Hey Rob, I really appreciate you taking me in to get measured up without an appointment up here at the Loudon Classic. I just found this video and you definitely got me excited to get into a custom suit. Very much hoping to be able to get it ordered before the end of the year. Thanks again and keep yourself safe! 😃👍❤🏍🏁🦬 Randy
We appreciate that, Randy! Can't wait to see you on the track rocking your Bison gear!
