I think people in tshirt and shrits look like bell ends, it makes me cringe. I passed a sportsbike 2up down the motorway the other week, both in tshirt and jeans and no gloves! People geared up look good, or sensible at least.
I did it once, just to say I did. Never again.

Yeah for sure. Went to SE Asia to ride around with some. Airport security looked at me like I was nuts for taking lid, jacket and gloves. Paid off. Once my brother went down in the middle of nowhere. Bad enough, then mate had a full slide down his side. Flesh ain't pretty when it comes off.
Plus well fitting leathers feel daaaaaaaaamn fine.

You see them on YouTube videos, which I understand attracts muppets like moths, but the amount of them where people are flying down roads wearing a shorts and tshirts tightens my sphincter.
Skin is thin enough to get cut by paper. The equation isn't difficult to get to.
I'd rather look like a bellend but be happy riding.
In more boring news. The SV flew the MOT. I suppose working on bikes made me more paranoid then needs be. Splashed for fresh rubber and pads. Many stoppeies, such lean. Wow.
Burwins are great. Dropped bike off at 8, done before 11.
