Get your gear - wear it!

Im gonna get a set of ICON shin-knee guards...heard good things about them..

Everything I've read about them is positive except the size - they say that if you don't have small calves they don't fit well at all.

That's the main reason I went with the apline* - if they don't work out it's on $25. Then I can invest in something better.

Seems like the best solution for on-the-go daily commuting.

tried to take his code, add to file and put on my web site - might work.

I'm going to try out the apline* Reflex Knee guard. I'll post up how good they work.

Nice ride man - I will get back to my V-Twin roots at some point.

Very nice though!

david! welcome bro.

What's up dude? Is there a board you're NOT on??

Sell that 250 yet? I'd be surprised if you haven't.

I need to get some leg armor to wear while commuting to/from work. I need to look normal when I get to the office so I'm thinking about getting the Alpinestars Bionic Knee guards for under the jeans/pants I wear for work.

What do you all wear? Over-pants or armor?

dude - I don't swing THAT way and I think those flames are freakin' killer!!

i think that what i gathered from reading is

4. Doean't matter what kind of pants you wear.

haha! From my own experience:

Good Lord! Jeez - I can't imagine riding one of those!!

NICE PICS!

Checkin' in - been riding since '92, but had many years of no riding. I have about 7 years experience.

Bikes I've owned:

1992 - I bought a 1989 Yamaha Virago 750 (first bike)

1997 - bought a 1996 Katana 750, stolen after 1 month! grrr!

2004 - bought a 2003 Kawasaki EX500

2007 - sold 500, bought a '98 ZX7 (wow!), but crashed Sept. 2nd. First crash.

2008 - sold crashed up ZX7, bought 1994 EX500, 21K miles great condition.

Sold the 7 to downsize - It made me drunk with power. I can't ride it yet - just too tempting to push the envelope

And that's where I stand right now - here's the bike when I got it, although right now its ripped apart as I am doing the valve adjustment today:

See you all on the road!
