He's my grandson, but the clothes still apply. My daughter met me at a park that day, a few miles of roads with 2 or 3 cars all the time we were there. She wears an armored mesh jacket, but gets hard headed about making him wear long pants in the sidecar. If that doesn't make sense to you, it doesn't to me, either. He has a full face Bell, leather gloves he actually likes to wear (but dropped the day he rode in the sig pic - found them on the way home) and a leather jacket when it cools down a bit. He only rides in the sidecar, too, with a seatbelt to prevent any 7 year old silliness.
