I think its hilarious how these things get posted every two seconds.

I mean I shudder as much as the next guy, but most of the time for city duty i only have on helmet, gloves, jacket, jeans and hiking shoes. I have no problem whatsoever with people killing themselves, but allowing a scantily clad rider on board is a different story.

 

Textiles give skin protection from 3 to 7 secs. Leathers around 5 to 8 secs. T-shirt zero. Jeans give just on 1/2 a second protection (so they are absolutely useless). You do the maths. And to the numnuts who say it's ONLY road rash and chicks dig scars. Well you really prove just how amazingly arrogant and immature you are. Your parents must be so proud of you..... LOL)))))

 

Again, I warned you about the presumtions of calling someone ignorant that you've never met.

You call me ignorant?

HAS ANYONE HERE EVEN BOTHERED TO READ YOUR SIGNATURE FOOL?

 

these threads get posted almost once a month. bottom line is, everyone on a bike has the option to gear up properly or not. if you dont gear up.....you know the consiquences! if you gear up......great! thats where this topic should be left at. there's always black and white areas, not much grey where people kinda see someone elses point. either you gear up, or you dont. ride your own ride, do what you please.

if you want to post something like this, atleast do a poll to see how many do which one.

ride YOUR bike!

 

yeah yeah yeah.... shoot em up.... bang bang.


come on horse was dead before this thread was born. battle this out on the thong or wife threads.

 

I have decent sized calfs (I'm 5'9"-10" and 200lbs) and I have some trouble making them tight on the bottom. The bottom strap seems kinda poorly designed. I bet I could get a strip of velcro at Walmart and have my old lady make it fit better. Other than that, they go under my jeans well and are barely noticeable. I've worn them for hours at a time and they are fine to walk around in and will provide good impact protection for your knees and calfs. If I had a choice to buy them again, I definitely would.

 

yeah.. go ahead hate on me but when its 110 degrees in oklahoma and 100% humidity.. you can barely survive as a species with more than a tshirt on.. promise.. had to stop every hour just to drink water.. brain was cooking in my helmet.. rather have road rash than brain damage from my organs overheating.. lol..

 

Get a good mesh jacket! Joe Rocket UFO is excellent! Saw one after an 80 MPH get off. Trashed the jacket and rider kept his skin. Some of you guys are REAL BOGANS!!!!!! LOL))))))

 

will notdo the nylon thing again

nor will I wear tactical boots again

gloves did right


Jacket did right


sounds like the oklahomosexual should worry about brain death

I am all for freedom to choose though
anything to get that "species" off the planet ASAP

 

I would never call someone ignorant,
thats not an insult
especially if they are being an A-hole
