From that title.... so many jokes are on the way.

I don't use any, but I know we have a lot of members that wear full suits. Is that what you're asking?

yeah that's what i mean.

I actually wear them all the time now under my jeans or any pants that i use. if i didn't have them the last time i had the accident i would of have to get my knees replaced.

so for no more then $20.00 (the must expensive ones), leather jacket, gloves and helmet and you are full protected.
