Fly Racing

Their stuff has gotten substantially better looking over the years and I've been told it's good quality. It's also cool how they seem to never turn down a privateer asking for support. Seems like some good people running it. If I was in the market for a new gear company to be my "go to" I'd consider them but I'm holding out for the Ride 365 stuff.

I have a few of their items for my sons and the quality is much better than their first offerings. Quality appears to be top notch.

I wear a competitor's gear that is also top quality. If I had a better deal for Fly, I'd have no hesitation to use their line, especially their vented stuff for FL!

In 2001 some of my best racing buddies got sponsored by them and started wearing their gear. I thought it looked like junk to be honest. Their stuff sure has changed since then. I've grown to like the brand with their involvements through Jason Thomas, pulp MX, etc. I looked at some of their stuff when getting mountain bike gear a couple months ago but ended up buying some TLD instead. I've got Shift and Fox gear for moto currently but I like some of their current stuff. I do have some great Fly tie downs though!

im not a fan of the color ways they've put out recently, but the quality is good. Also I've had the sector boot for a couple of months and they're great!

I've run Fly gear before, and always considered it my "best kept secret" in MX gear.
It's always been affordable and great quality. Seemed better than my expensive Fox 360 stuff.

The only reason I've never had more was looks. Some of the color-ways/graphic prints were just Fugly. I heard that's been addressed, so i'm interested, but i'm 40...they probably don't want me wearing their stuff. lol

Typing this with my Fly casual button down on but in all seriousness the stuff has come along way and there's a pricepoint for most with the company. Holds up very well in the woods too.

Best quality gear I've wore but there stuff last year want that nice so I went with shift but guess what it has fallen apart already.

I'm waiting for JT$ to drop a Burberry Edition before I spend my cash.

the carbon lid is good value, the gear wears better than most.

I wear 6yr old Fly gear going on 7 with no issues... cept where the pipe has finally had it's way ... but it's a solid company that invests in its people to be the brain trust .... in other words ,if you don't like the product for whatever reason, when you call them you're probably going to be speaking to someone who had a say in what you bought... direct criticism goes a long way in making a product better... likewise if you like the product let them know with a call... only takes a minute and makes a person's day... on both sides of the phone.

I wear TLD; and, you'll NEVER find me talkin' shit about Fly...good people, good gear.

I'm a believer and lover of this sport and the few companies within in it that actually give a shit. That's why I wear Troy's stuff...Yet, to be totally honest, that's why...in the past...I've worn Fly, too.

I've gotta give a shout out to Max, Andrew and JT at Fly for giving a shit and contributing to great gear. Thanks to all of you and the guys you work for...you make a difference.

Personally, I feel there are only a few gear co's that truly give a shit or even care about what you wear. We're talking about them...right here. Sure, there are a few others...but...at the moment...?

We're recognizing gear developed and worn by riders.

STOKED!

They do have a great bunch of guys working at the company. I wear thier stuff snowmobiling and when I rsced atvs. Hands down my favorite company that I dealt with in the industry

Fly Racing is WPS. Started back in 1999ish if I remember correctly. Very basic designs and gear when they first started, but the are driven by passion. Everyone that works there and designs and builds the gear is passionate about the industry and about MX. They have gotten better every year. I used to be embarrassed to wear that gear back in the day and now look at them. Top riders, top gear, top sales staff....they are rocking. Kudos to them for taking a dream and making it reality!

Rodney from FLY is a good dude. Not sure if he is still there. He took good care of my brother around 2002. I always thought there gear was good quality for the price. Glad to see them doing well.

Rodney is still there. He is in charge of Taco Tuesday there at WPS and teaches his little brother English on Thursdays. He is a real good guy and still knows how to twist it.

Looks like they just got a new rider too according to the photo Will Topete posted today:

The stuff up to 2005 was ugly. 2006 is when they really stepped up the design of it and it has continued to get better every year

Ha! They will love working with him..

Very cool to see Fly helping out Millsaps, figured it was coming after JT and Matthes talked about Millsaps in Oneal gear practicing. Fly supports so many different areas of racing and I wouldnt trade their gear for anything!

The pants that I had seemed bulky and heavy compared to my TLD and Answer gear. I wore It once so i can't speculate on the longevity. I always preferred air gear, and fly didn't offer any at the time (south Louisiana is hot as shit).

great gear with some amazing technical defferencese in design that make the fit better.

They have always supported the sport too.

Ever since I meet April
Zastrow I have been a fan of fly. Beautiful girl that races and designs for Fly

I bought Fly gear a year ago and took the jersey out of the package and it had already showed some piling. It didn't bother me enough to send it back but I was still a little bummed. It's nice gear, although I haven't worn it but for one season.

Just ask Kenny Watson - Best Gear out there!!

In all seriousness, I love my Fly Gear. Great company and great rider support program.

I use fly stuff in moto and wakeboarding. They make a sweet life jacket and board shorts not to mention how awesome the "hydro Lite" gear line is. it forms to your legs very well and it fits like a glove. It's the only gear I use in watersports and Moto

I have an F2 helmet and it fits really nice for me and feels like a quality product, the chin bar is a bit short but i have gotten used to it.

I really respect their approach with supporting alot of the under-classmen of the sport. Its a grass roots thing and i like it. I will be looking at their stuff in the future.

I seriously doubt no other company does more for the off-road motorcycle industry than Fly. Fly gives out tons of free gear every year through their Fly Bucks programs. Craig Shoemaker is a great leader for the motorcycle industry, and other companies should look at what he is doing and model their companies after WPS.
