A long sleeved shirt won't do a damn thing to save you from road rash. Nor will regular blue jeans. Nor will a regular-weight jacket. Been there, done that. I was wearing jeans and my leather jacket when I... forcibly dismounted. I slid on my back for a good distance before coming to a stop.My upper body never had a scratch, but my legs were quite a bit the worse for wear. I was only going about 45 mph. Maybe you can't afford a tricked out set of leathers right now, but your body cannot afford you not having a decent set either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Broke 0 #27 May 29, 2006 I have a buddie who believes in getting a full set of leahers with the pads built into them. You can lose it at 90mph, get up dust yourself off and as long as the bike is ok ride yourself home. You will be hurting in the morning, but you will be alive with no broken bones, so you can still skydiveDivot your source for all things Hillbilly.
