I am sooooo sick of the "Biker image"

[pilotguy299]

I make it a point to never wear a thing with a high viz corporate logos. Saving up for an X-14. Been thinking I might put a small Jap war flag sticker on the back just to be a dick.

One of these?

I was lazy posting. Anyhow, someone mentioned the Beemer and Goldwing snobs with their fancy gear. I'm not a snob but I like the good stuff. I did think of that plane when I first tried on a Shoei X14. Here's a cool sticker I found http://m.ebay.com/itm/JAPAN-FLAG-FLA...%257Ciid%253A2

If you ever go "down" on a bike the fancy gear and suits etc. just may save your ass from a "huge case of road rash"...T-Shirts and old jeans don't help much, but sure are easy to put on and look "cool"!!! I ride at times with a friend who has a BMW R1200RT and he has the whole deal, full face Schubert helmet, ear plugs, full riding leathers, Sidi boots, leather gloves, and all..By the time he gets ready and dressed, I am halfway up the road.....But as they say, "Too each his own".....Ride safe

Easy, easy...I have a costume like this and a couple more depending on what bike I am riding !!!

I'm able to slip on my Olympia Avenger suit, Held gloves, and Schuberth C3Pro helmet on in about 2 minutes flat. Plenty fast - and I am VERY well protected if I go down (and the Avenger flows a ton of air through the mesh, more than enough for summers in the East LA area with triple digits). The key is boots - some good boots (I like Dainese Fulcrums) that are extremely comfortable to wear for walking. No need to change out of them, they're good for an entire day without an issue!

Robert,
Still hobbling around or is it to a point where your vertical and able to cover some ground. I took the bike out the other day for a very short ride just to get the storage stuff I put in the gas thru the whole system. Really been tied up with fall cleanup as I have about 9 big red pines, 2 white pines and 3 monster oak tree, and 2 red maples in the yard. Hope everything is healing nicely, spring is coming and I am just trying to get the finish cleaning done on the B before putting it away.
