Gixxus Christ! Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Aside from the sneakers and skinny jeans, this bike looKS way too small for you...you should donate it to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmutt Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 What's with the taped up front end in the rolling pic? You do a trackday in sneakers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Protection against stone chips? I'm with CSC--those sneakers and bare ankles are gonna look bad if the SHTF….oh, and gloves!!! Nice bike, tho!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItzaME Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 We've been over this discussion already guys but yes safety first.. I chose to leave gloves in car and to wear sneakers it being about 90 out..Every stop I added or switched up my gear.. Bike was taped up bcuz I rode it home from KY to OH. Had no truck available to use and my buddy was free to drive me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItzaME Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 CrazySkull that's weird I've gotten that a lot lately but will hold onto it for now maybe the bike will grow with miles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

claine650 Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) Still confused why you had to tape it up because you didn't bring it home on a truck.... are you not going to ever ride it on the street?But yes, gorgeous color and I love that bike, want one.How tall are you btw?

motocat12 Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Did you at least have on sunblock? If you're hot you're not going fast enough. What's the hottest people have ridden? I've done 111 in the sun, that does feel a bit like a sauna in gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Nice bike! When it's hot, the pavement is softer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done 111 in the sun, that does feel a bit like a sauna in gearI saw 119 in phx one time. Got stuck in traffic on the interstate too. I'm sure with the other cars and the blacktop it was much warmer than the 119. Full gear was uncomfortable, but prefer it to road rash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swingset Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Nice bike, shitty gear. Remember, no one tells you to gear up because they don't like you. If you ate shit (through no fault of your own), and paid a heavy, lifelong price for that choice, we'd be the ones wishing you a speedy recovery. Some of us know how god-fucking-awful that recovery feels when you've ground your skin off on hot pavement. At the very least, wear some boots and proper gloves. It's a guarantee your hands are going out and will be mutilated in a get-off, even a slow one. Same with boots. If you simply must squid in the hot weather (they make mesh gear and cooling products, btw), at least be able to walk and beat off while you're all ugly from shin to chin. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zx3vfr Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Why does anyone care what he chooses to use for protection? Its his bike, his life, his choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 My dad laid his bike down a few weeks ago without a jacket or gloves. He no longer has skin on his palms, finger tips or forarms. I'd rather sweat than bleed anytime.Pay no attention to zx3vfr, he's a troll and thrives on virtual confrontation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I've ridden jacketless and helmetless plenty of times. Now that I have a kid I wear what I feel will protect me in a crash. But it is all personal choice and that is what is great about america. As long as someone else's actions do not cause you financial or physical harm there is nothing wrong with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobhawkins Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 Idk, insurance rates might be partially based on what it costs to fix people after a crash. Kinda feel bad for the guy getting his thread shit on after getting a bike he's really excited about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
