I dress for the weather.

Always:
I always have at the minimum jeans, boots, some type of gloves and a 3/4 helmet on.

For rain:
Canal Street rain suit

Cold:
FXRG nylon pants, thermals, heated gloves, heated jacket liner, leather jacket (w armor) and neoprene face mask

Cool-to hot weather:
Full fingered leather gloves or half finger gloves
Leather jacket (w armor) or leather vest

I am looking to get a perforated leather jacket or mesh jacket for the summer.

In the summers, I'll just wear something light weight underneath.

Keep the shiney side up and Happy New Year.

Could I suggest a red thong??!!! [sm=lildevil.gif]

LOL! Well, never say never, but it sounds darned uncomfortable.

Old Fender Guy, I love that photo of your cat sitting on your bike.

Thanks...

That'smy old 1981 "Sturgis" Shovelhead, and for some reason that cat was in love with the bike (until I kicked it over and fired it up, the bike, not the cat)...

A Shovelhead running straight drag pipes without any baffles does put out some tone....

Since you asked so nicely


Although the way this picture is uploading on my screen it may make me look a little drunk, which I am not. lol. It loads better from my Myspacepage which is in my profile.

99.9% of the time, I am wearing a helmet. Only time I may go with out it, is if I am running to the local mom n pop store, which is only about 2 miles from the house,down a country road. No matter the temp, I ALWAYS wear at least jeans and a t-shirt.No riding in shorts for me. As the temp drops, I may add long underwear, fleece lined jeans, chaps, long sleeve shirt, leather jacket, etc.

Long rides ....jeans and helmet always......BUT....I have to admit it......I am one of those idiots you see wearing shorts ( with Bikini top at the rallys).
I will almost always wear jeans and tank top during the summer but there are days when I will just jump on the bike and go no matter what I am wearing.

As for helmets.....it's the law in NC so I wear a nut shell on my head. As a matter of fact it's not even DOT approved. But as soon as I hit SC that sucker is gone. I LOVE to ride with out one.
