Ok, Apoc made me think of this in the harley thread about Harley posers, but how do you or would you define a "sportbike poser"

People who attend bike nights.
People who wear their leather jacket when they are not riding.
People who spend more time cleaning their bike than riding.
People who buy liter bikes as their first ride.
People who wear Icon gear.
People who watch AND enjoy Superbikes.

Really, anymore, I'm like

to each his own. We don't all enjoy the sport in the same ways or with the same passion. And how boring would the world be if we did?

To Icons credit, their gear has been getting safer from what I've seen.

I don't wear it anymore, I just love the design. In terms of comfort & safety, I love my Arai. Newer Icon lids seem to have come a long way though.

I've got a 4 year old Icon jacket, its verystrong and held up great. No complaints whatsoever.

But at the same time, when I bought my CBR1kRR, they gave me a free Icon helmet, and I absolutely hated it. Never had such an uncomfortable helmet on my head, ever! Shoei FTW!!
