Alright, what about other protection then?

Since there is a post about helmets, what do you all think about riding clothing?

Who thinks leather is a must, who thinks it's a novelty and when do you decide? If it's too hot?

Special riding boots?
Chaps or leather pants? Jeans ok?

I wear a leather jacket in the spring/fall/winter, vest in the summer. Leather is good protection but wearing 'em in the summer and wrecking from a heat stroke isn't good either.

Helmet,jacket sometimes,gloves,boots. I am geting old no longer ride when 45 or below in am.to cold with wind chill at 70-80mph. Even dressed right after 30 miles somethings get cold.

After my encouter "Bike vs Bambi", the Mrs. made me agree that I'd wear a jacket and gloves from now on. Since there was no skin left on my arm or hand, it wasn't a hard sell.

Cooler weather we wear leather.

Summer months we switch to mesh gear. The only time we go without jackets is weather like this past weekend - 95+ with high humidity...

Never shorts unless they're under mesh pants.

Always wear the helmets, boots & gloves.

Ummmmm.... there seems to be something missing from this list.... JEANS :no:..... please tell me you are NOT doing your Village People :biker: routine in public again!

I thought you only dressed like that for the King.!!!! :dizzy:

I perfer leather jacket and gloves...always a helmet...
As it gets too hot I switch to the armored mesh jacket but the rig is the same. Typically here in Alabama when I am headed out mid day I will loose the jacket in the heat. I realize the risks, but the risk of over heating the body could be a more critical issue in our heat and humidity.
