Casper Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Best bet is to come out on a group ride. Some of the older guys who've been doing this for a while have a lot you can learn. I've learned a shit ton in the last year from a lot of guys on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98fiveseven Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I just got a M2R perforated leather jacket with the "armor" from Iron pony along with a pair of gloves. I already have a helmet and boots. What should I look for as far as pants would i generally be alright in a pair of jeans or should I look for something more suited to riding?Took the bike down the road the other day (Monday) when it was really nice. I did pretty good. A little wobbley pulling out of the drive ways but other then that I can't wait till spring is here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
