That gixxer package doesnt come with one of those oh so trendy suction cup helmet mohawks?!? Forget it. Not interested anymore... Georgia is nice because its location specific to gear. In atlanta its all shorts and cut of sleeve stunters and north georgia mountains its hardcore gear ***** so you have a choice to which you would like to gawk at you that day. : / everyone thinks they do it the only way its supposed to be done.

unless im going to the store right around the corner, i wear my helmet, coat, jeans, gloves n normal work boots. i like to lets say just have a little fun when i ride, so i know the first time i 'have fun' without my gear will be the first time i eat ****. They r still repealing the helmet law here in MI but regardless ill always wear that. People in my neck of the woods are 50/50 on gear too, some full (coat, helmet, gloves) some just a helmet n a wife beater. too many deer around here for me to chance it as well...i honestly saw a kid on a GSXR wearing full gear the other day on a stop for lunch, he even complimented me on how nice my Honda was and i returned the gesture, guess not all GSXR riders r complete dicks, maybe they actually like the bike for its attributes and not bcuz their friends told em it was the cool thing to do........

That's because the kit includes a "helmet delete."

Saw this on my way to dinner last night. (Yes i know my windshield is filthy). Sandals, shorts, tee short, no helmet, no gloves. I think this is the true definition of a squid.

i always wonder if it hurts your toes to switch the gears when youre wearing flip flops or sandals.

i rode my dirtbike on the driveway once bearfoot and had to go put my shoes on, it was kind of painful.
