Josh1234 Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Or house keys, or other stuff? I like to keep my wallet ON ME when I ride, and not under the seat or anything, just in case, y'know? I wasn't comfortable with it in my back pocket, because sometimes as I move on the seat, it'd work it's way out of my back pocket. So I'd put it in the front pocket of my jeans (just got new riding pants though) and that wasn't particularly comfortable against my hip.Just wondering what others do in case there's a common sense thing I missed. I also have my normal house keys separate from my MC key, since I don't want crap jangling around while I ride.Ninja edit: I wear a tight leather jacket, not a roomy textile, so jacket pocket won't really work for wallet, btw.

chevysoldier Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Normal riding it's in my back pocket. If I have my riding pants on it's in the front zip up pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokey Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Lose the dead cow jacket and get a proper textile one. You will solve your problem with having the ability to store your phone, wallet or whatever. My C14 also has a glove compartment on the tank, so my wallet typically goes in there when I ride. Maybe a tankbag or a tail bag might be a good idea too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 In a zip lock bag in my tank bag on longer rides. in my rear pocket on short ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblosser Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Jacket pocket. It zips, no worries it'll come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JStump Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 phone and wallet go in jacket zipper pocket, keys are clipped to my belt loop, although I always feel like I lost them and end up checking for them a few times per ride lol.

Bad324 Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 depends the kind of ride and distance. The faster and more lengthy then keys, wallet and phone go in tank or tail bag. If I'm just just crusing then in the pants pockets they go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AOW Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 I carry my license, credit card, few bucks worth of cash with my money clip in my front pocket. Bike is keyless ignition, so FOB stays in riding jacket, have a key safe bolted to the front porch of house which alleviates the need to carry house key(s).

C-bus Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Tank Bag. $15 buys a magnetic big enough for a phone, wallet and keys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWing'R Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Normal riding it's in my back pocket. If I have my riding pants on it's in the front zip up pocket.Same here. When i go out for a real "ride" I usually transfer my goods to my chain wallet. It's longer and thinner, and well, has a chain.If I wear my leather riding pants though it still has to go in my jacket cause the pants don't have pockets.

Helmutt Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Guess I'm one of the few that almost always wears a backpack - all my essentials as well as extra water in case of thirst or cooling system issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alienpi Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 I just put keys, cards, etc... into a small ziploc bag, and put it with the toolkit under the rear seat. For longer rides I may include redundant keys and money inside my leathers or saddlebags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pfloydgad Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 I put mine in the left breast inside pocket of my jacket. All my jackets have these. But be very careful of the Tank Bag, not so much fr it coming off, but if it has magnets, it can fry the scan bar on any cards you have, rendering them useless, not good on a ride.Ride safe all, and ATGATT please.Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaNick Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Inside zipper pocket of my Speedmaster Joe Rocket jacket. Phone in pants pocket. I don't take keys with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruit Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 I always carry my wallet in my front left pocket. Stays there when I ride. If I know I'm going to a store then I'll put my wallet in my jacket pocket for easy easy access at the store. (ATGATT = overpants = difficult to get at the wallet without looking like I'm taking my pants off) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykill Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 I lost mine in my back pocket about 40 days ago and had to pick up the remains in the morning. Zipper jacket pocket recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
