You're absolutely right. I invested over $400 on that jacket after a guy in front of me wrecked and broke his back on a group ride.
I've seen quite a few people go down bad...and one friend die.
So I try to be the safest rider I can...leather pants are the only thing I go without.
I've got the utmost respect for guys who wear full suits all the time.
kickass helmet...is it one of the race replicas?
I went down and hit my head on the Homestead road course with that Yamaha helmet on the last session of the day. So I bought this new one right away just to be safe.
