Realize that it's a bit late, but I just saw your question.

A* GP-R jacket (bought used) with a Forcefield back protector insert.

AGVSport Willow perforated leather pants (very good value IMHO)

Lionheart race gloves (company out of business, but they're just standard race gauntlets; look for good scaphoid [palm] protection -- e.g. sliders -- and gauntlet style cuffs that go up your arm a bit)

Bilt Trackstar perforated leather boots (discontinued model... despite the name they're basically just touring boots -- I feel these are adequate for the street but wouldn't wear them on the track)

The jacket and pants zippers don't match, of course, but with basic sewing skills it's trivial to sew the appropriate zipper half into the jacket.
