I ride with mine in my pocket, never had a problem with any kind of pants.
If you feel insecure than just put it in your storage compartment.

Tell ya what...
...I'm new to this forum but I'm no rookie rider. I have never had a problem with riding with my wallet in my back pocket. The question I pose to all who read these posts would be, "How often when riding do you wear a jacket / pullover etc"? The reason I ask is that if your riding while wearing some sort of garment on your upper body you might consider placing your wallet in a pocket that is zippable / closable in some form in your jacket. Not only will your wallet be secure but if you find while riding that you get sore from the pressure of you wallet in any pocket this will add to your comfort.
"Rubber Side Down"!!!




For the record:
My name is Jeff. I'm a personal friend of Lord Jersey. I own a 2001 CBR929RR Blk/Yel. I have been riding on motorbikes for over 12 years. My 1st bike was a 1980 Yamaha yz400 dirt bike. My 1st road bike was a 1995 Kawasaki 500ex (bought it used w/1100 miles on it and was a great starter bike for road use). My 2nd bike was a 1997 Suzuki GSX-R750 (bought brand new @ Larry's Cycles in Oshkosh WI, for $7800.00 (A STEAL OF A DEAL). I put 5500+ miles on my Gixxer' in less then 4 months. I love to ride rain or shine. My current CBR I bought @ American Marine & Motor Sports (Shawano, WI, Lord Jersey and I are in charge of the delivery department) for $5,500 w/tons of extras and add-ons (worth a lot more then I paid for it). It has 4200 miles on it original making me the second owner. Its a great bike.

Mine stays in my jacket. My man keeps his there too, I believe. We both have dropped stuff from the bike, but not the wallets, LOL!

I wear a wallet in my back pocket, but I have a chain from it to a belt loop.. it's not goin anywhere. If Im goin on a rip that I only need my license and money.. I'll just put my license and debit card in my inside zipup jacket pocket. Its all good.

thanks for all the feedback....i think i will start keeping mine in my jacket pocket as well.....even though it doesn't seem like anyone has had problems with it in the back pocket (better safe then sorry i guess.....and on a bike it never hurts to be safe).
