Default Wearing a Buell jacket while riding a Harley

What would you think if you saw this? Some kid with Buell riding his dad's Harley or a Harley owner that's too broke to buy a new jacket?

Just curious as that's the position I'm in. I try not to care what others think, but the bottom line is that I do care, at least a little bit. I'm a former Bueller and have a really nice (now nicely worn) Vanson jacket with Buell logos. I DO have an HD mesh jacket (got it for only $100) but can't quite afford/justify a $250+ jacket right now.

I suppose I should just get over it and ride, no?

Just ride with what you got. Who cares about all that. When you can afford one get it if you still want to until then just enjoy riding.

You will void the HD warranty if you do that. Are you kidding, who cares? If anyone asks, tell them you own both bikes.

The only thing I notice about other bikers is their bikes.

No that's against the rules. Lol maybe you'll start something new and all of us HD owners will start wearing Buell jackets. DOUBTFUL

Ok, I didn't think it was a big deal. Thanks for reaffirming the fact that I think too much

I'd wear a Honda jacket on my Harley if that's what I had.

Realizing you have a problem is the first step on the road to health. And "No," your problem was not the jacket, it is that you DO think too much. Just ride. And have fun.
