What do you guys wear when you go out street riding?

All the gear? Some? Bare minimum (Helmet only)? Nothing?
And what kind of gear?

Post pictures if you want.

My gear-

KBC Helm
SS padded jacket
JR Gloves
Jeans
Work boots

That's just nasty! & you still have wear that helmet.

Anyway, Jacket, gloves & boots at a minimum. I have a spent a small fortune on riding gear & it would be stupid not to wear it. I have summer weight Jacket, gloves & boots, same for winter, although I'm up for a new pair of leather pants, (which seem to have shrunk for some reason?)

I don't always wear my gloves even though I know I should. But I always wear my jacket and kevlar jeans.

Helmets mandatory here, but you wouldn't me without one on. I've been to non law required areas and still wear my lid.

Gloves & Helmet - ALWAYS
Jacket - 95% of the time.

Try to wear jeans but 90% of the time I just use it to commute so I have on slacks.

ATGATT for me.

Helmet, textile jacket, alpinestar textile pants, gloves, shift boots even in 100* weather in the summer.

I have however, when giving my lady friends a ride, wear not as much as I should. I make her wear all my gear and I'll just wear jeans, some other gloves, my old helmet, and a hoodie (like it will help).
I will buy some closeout gear next spring so I'm not feeling naked when I ride two up.
