For anyone one wondering how kevlar jeans do in a crash, I have first hand experience. I totaled out my bandit with a set of dragon jeans on, a joe rocket textile jacket, rocket leather gloves, and a hjc helmet, with a pair of timberland work boots. The jeans did there job, I superman flew over the bars on a high side. And slid around 30-40 feet down the road. The jeans held up fine still have them, the helmet was scuffed pretty bad and the visor started to come off. the jacket also did it's job but was thrashed. walked away with not a inch of road rash. Now internal injuries are another story....
