Show off your riding gear

[Rogue Hawk]

This is my setup.

I have two jackets, a Joe Rocket Atomic 4 waterproof and a BILT Mesh/Leather. Both are upgraded with Nitrite-Forcefield, A-Stars and Dianese armor.

A Kevlar base layer consisting of Roadskin long johns and a Draggin' brand shirt.

Bell Vortex helmet certified Snell 2015

RS Taichi GP-Evo race gloves with Knox palm sliders.

Dainese TR-Course race boots

Dianese armored shorts, shin and elbow guards, and chest protector

Alpinestars Nucleon KR-CiR Chest Protector

the rest if it

 

[Rogue Hawk]

OK, lets try again

Do you wear all of that on a spyder?

 

[Rogue Hawk]

Well, I don't wear both jackets at the same time. And each jacket has its own complement of armor that is not mixed

I have 4 jackets: Can-Am mesh, Can-Am denim, Can-Am Leather, and an old HD leather. (I don't have armor in any of my gear.) I have the leather pants that match the jacket. I have a Shoei RF-1200 helmet, as well as a Scorpion modular and a half-helmet, but it's the Shoei I mostly use. My boots are TCX X-Street high-top sneakers.

i could never dress the way you people dress up. in the colder weather i have a flannel shirt a pair of jeans and a army jacket, than i dress down to a flannel shirt and a carheart short jacket and jeans. summer time i am in a light denim jacket or just a short sleeve shirt and jeans.

:agree: Jean and t-shirt in summers for sure and no helmet when I can.

Hmmmm think "cheese on a cheese grater" yum!:roflblack::roflblack:

Great..!!

quite a collection of gear. Good stuff and would have similar gear if ryding a crotch rocket. Depending on the ryde I dress appropriately. Good helmet for sure (modular for different areas) good gloves, good leather footwear, long sturdy pants and good jacket ( I have a built armor lined with liner). But the rest is more what you feel comfortable with after all you are ryding a vehicle that is not apt to fall over..jmo...:thumbup:

That guy is terrible for wearing jeans/t-shirt! It has to be a black tee because when you eat in a Mexican restaurant and dribble salsa all over your belly it doesn't show much on the black tee. There... THAT is how you dress for all us fashionistas! And wear socks.... old people ankles are ugly!

And the Boots MUST match the Jacket !

 

[teacherbob]

I have lots of gear but why wouldn't I since I was the general manager of an International Internet business and local shop selling apparel and accessories for 8 years. I am pretty much an ATGAT (all the gear all the time) person but, I do dress down sometimes in hot weather. Pretty sold on wearing mesh jacket and riding pants over t-shirt and shorts in the summer. I do cheat and wear closed toe Teva sandals on short rides in hot weather. Just bought the new Nolan N-44 helmet and I NEVER get on my bike without it on my head.
I always told my customers that "even though you don't want to wear protective gear when it gets hot, it makes sense to do so because: You ride more during that time of year , many more riders are also out there and all the teenage kids are out driving around in the summer."
Hope that helps.

only in nice weather

I know, its all left over from my Honda VFR 1200 days, a bike that can do 160 mph, so I just keep wearing it.

I put on what is appropriate for the situation. The Joe Rocket jacket is waterproof, the BILT has a mesh front that is great in the summer. I don't need the Kevlar shirt with the leather jacket, but for the textile, I wear it for warmth or when I am at highway speeds. The Elbow pads are for the textile jacket because the elbow pads in that jacket don't line up with my elbows well. I do always wear the boots and chin guards. So I won't leave home with out them.

I was hit by a car and it messed up my shins and back. My X wife had it even worse. She got a broken pelvis and is in long term therapy for that.
Once a person has been in a motorcycle accident, it changes one's perspective. I now understand what a car can do to the human body. So I take safety seriously.

When somone asks me why are you wearing the armour your on three wheels and you are not tipping over , my answer is I'm not worried about going down on my Spyder like a two wheeler but I figure if I'm in an accident I'm going to be launched and the gear will lessen the road rash , Dress for the SLIDE not the Ride .
