leather weight

OK, so I am losing weight. Gonna try and get down to 187-190. My Van son leathers weigh a ton (I'll weigh them later). They're a size 52, I am 6 foot 2 inches.

so what are the lightest, safest leathers out there? The Vanson seem like overkill sometimes, they are so heavy. And I'm not going to crash going 200 mph on the straight.

I don't know how much my 2 piece Joe Rocket weighs but I have done extensive testing and they haven't worn through anyplace.
BTW I have a suit I bought last year that is a little too long in the legs and arms. I'm shrinking in my old age. They would fit someone about 5'10" 175 lbs. I paid $450 if anyone wants them.
