Be careful, might rip you off the bike in a stiff wind!

OH - you said leather duster. I thought you said feather duster there for a second. I was wondering how you ride around with one of them!

Oh. Ok. Now I think I know what a duster is. Kinda cool looking, not sure how practical it is for riding. I'll stick to leather jacket, chaps and gerbing heated gear.

Von_Zipper - I don't find your juvenile high school "joke" the least bit humorous, and as far as your struck a nerve comment[?] - not like I have to answer to you, especially in regards to your taste in artwork, but just so you are no longer confused, quite possibly to your disappointment, I feel that I must inform you that I am 100% heterosexual, sorry.

Now again, do you have anything meaningful to contribute to this thread?

Nope, I'm in level with you in this regard.

One of my bros uses one on his Road King (and sometimes the Sporty), it has straps around the legs to stop it flying about...

Hey guys, In all fairness, Ive been hanging around this forum for a while and Von is a good guy with great insight on a lot of things...we all poke fun and make jokes with each other, its just part of what happens in a public forum. Me personally, I would stick with my chaps and coat, because I have friends that would bust out with "Im a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride, Im wanted....dead or alive". Yeah, get used to the poking bro, it makes life far more enjoyable!!!

Thanks Redneck man and others...I appreciate the input.

Seems like unless it's uptight and out of the way, a long coat would be a detriment and possible danger. 'Hate to get thrown off the bike by a coat wrapping around my rear wheel...

V_Z let's call it a day and forget this shiza. See you around.
