Title: Leatt Device-IT WORKS! ! ! ! ! Post by: Gunnslinger on February 01, 2008, 10:03:57 AM Hey everyone,
Toby here,i just wanted to get on here and address the couple of accidents we have had recently(Alan Molony,Samantha Cheetham.....and ect.).including Jake this year we have had some very close calls and i have witnessed them and have had doctors as well as riders and onlookers notice that this device has done more in these last 3 crashes then anything else.Everyone should have one on them when they ride,this device has made the difference more than once as to serious and not so serious injury.This device is expensive,but,is the same price for everyone-Nobody gets a discount-You need to call WFO Kawasaki,Pasco County Cycles and Trick Threadz to get one and put on your rider-It will save Their LIFE ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! The Leatt Club-youth or adult size-399.99 The Leatt Sport-youth or adult-599.99 Leatt Pro-youth or adult-999.99 the difference is the carbon fiber and weight( the club is the most affordable and has worked everytime!!!!) I know this item is expensive but when you think about eveything else you buy that might not be as important that is the same price it is not a hard desicion.I am pushing for this to be mandatory for next year's SSQSA and it should be as mandatory at every track as the helmet and killswitch are ! If anyone has any questions about fitting or anything else about the LEATT call me-7274589403 Ambulance ride-5000.00 medical expense-10000.00 ++++++ LEATT DEVICE-500.00 Your rider walking off the track-P R I C E L E S S ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! thanks for letting me vent and Ramble, Toby #53'dad Title: Re: Leatt Device-IT WORKS! ! ! ! !

I have a built in one, its called a 18 and a half inch thick neck. 8) Title: Re: Leatt Device-IT WORKS! ! ! ! ! Post by: backinsaddle on February 01, 2008, 11:05:58 AM I couldn't agree more. I just purchased 2 for my kids, and when funds allow, 2 for my wife and I. I can't justify in my head spending any money on improvements/go-fast parts for my quad, but yet not spend the money on possibly saving a life...
Title: Re: Leatt Device-IT WORKS! ! ! ! ! Post by: TRX450R_Racer on February 01, 2008, 11:28:32 AM I think it would be more necessary for MX than XC racing.

Post by: 53yfz450 on February 01, 2008, 01:18:56 PM i will tell you guys something when i used to ride i used to get horrible neck pain... after wearing this i have not had pain in my neck. not to mention its saved my neck as many of you seen my wreck at live oak. i will not ride with out one ever again!! to me its just as important as a helmet
Title: Re: Leatt Device-IT WORKS! ! ! ! ! Post by: racingbroke on February 01, 2008, 03:59:20 PM I said it in another thread. It works. Sam will never ride without it - not by my choice but hers. She knows what it did for her in this recent accident and will be happy to tell you her experience.

Post by: lugnuts on February 01, 2008, 05:50:29 PM I have never understood how someone could spend over 10k in there quads in go fast parts and engine work and only spend 65-100.00 on a helmet and they dont want to spend any more money to save there neck or brain I guess the term goes STUPID HURTS...
just my .02 steve p.s I would love to see every major body in atv racing make the leatt a must have or you dont race! Title: Re: Leatt Device-IT WORKS! ! ! ! ! Post by: Hondarider22 on February 02, 2008, 06:07:16 PM after having my wreck at sunshine it is just more proof that this brace works, if i hadnt had it on i would still be in the hospital with alot more things to worry about then just a fractured vertebre...i wont get on the track without it on anymore...you cant put a price on your neck IMO

Title: Re: Leatt Device-IT WORKS! ! ! ! ! Post by: RTR_380/450R on February 04, 2008, 04:04:44 PM I know I wish I had one. Its going to be a year in 2 months since I monkey'd my neck up. After surgery, physical therapy, and eternal neck pain, I will be adding one to my comeback!!

Post by: #21yfz on February 04, 2008, 04:19:04 PM The Leatt's not even that expensive..$400...big deal..a helmets gonna run you around 250,give or take, and i dont see anyone complain when it comes to buying a helmet.if you can afford to buy race/aftermarket parts for your bike, why dont you buy aftermarket parts for your body and safety?
i bought one..and cant wait to ride with it Title: Re: Leatt Device-IT WORKS! ! ! ! ! Post by: 310R_Dude on February 08, 2008, 12:02:37 AM Anyone know if this is as good as the Leatt?

Post by: #3 LTR450 on February 08, 2008, 10:03:21 AM Looks like it would work the same to me, would like to see a back view posted.And the price is right.
Title: Re: Leatt Device-IT WORKS! ! ! ! ! Post by: ltr450qr on February 08, 2008, 11:12:46 AM EVS is a great company w/ great products IMO. Hunter and I both use one and in the last 2 SSQSA races our closed cell foam collars performed perfectly. We were both ejected from our quads and both landed on our heads. I was considering the Leatt for Hunter but not for me. I have 2 dessimated discs in my neck and can not afford the space that the Leatt device provides between the helmet and the device itself. The new EVS collar looks like a nice comprimise between the 2!
