Default Uh ok....Suzuki ad makes no sense.

Fine print says Suzuki recommends always wearing protective gear... Ok so aside from a helmet and short gloves, what gear does this guy have on?

I think it means wear matching hayabusa gear, as little as it may be.

The GSX is close enough, we'll allow it.

i agree. i think the gear they are referring to is anything emblazoned with suzuki, the S logo or GSXR/hayabusa on it...not necessarily anything protective.
