Yea I ordered a Joe Rocket/Jordan jacket and some gloves from New Enough. They should be here by Fri. We also went shopping for some jeans that weren't so skin tight that she could wear them on the bike. I'm not going to try and force someone to wear leathers to ride with me since I don't wear leather pants myself. Besides, you should see that ass in a nice pair of Lucky's or True Religion jeans...

I like how the helmet matches the shorts

Jeans are fine, but at least make her wear a mesh jacket. You can get decent ones for only $100-150 if you look around, and when you're at speed it feels no hotter than wearing a t-shirt.

And yes, I make my passengers wear overpants a jacket, gloves and boots. On my first date with my wife I showed up on my bike loaded up with all her gear for the night. It takes all of 30 seconds to throw on some overpants and zip up. Leathers are not the only, or most convenient, choice out there. Hey Rogue, were you wearing gear when we totaled my V-Strom? lol ________ RARE DISORDERS FORUMS Last edited by Kaneman; 05-09-2011 at 08:49 PM.. |

I wear jeans whenever I ride. They're kevlar lined, but they're jeans. Like he says, something is better than nothing. I'd make her wear pants and sleeves though. Not for a crash, but to make sure a rock hitting her bare skin won't make her jerk and dump the bike.
Oh and Tigger? Nicely done. I didn't doubt you or anything when you told me but still, awesome.

You could advise her of one of my favorite Azoomm quotes (and ~M, forgive me if I misremember the anecdote).
When seen gearing up to ride downtown by a know-nothing fellow, she was asked "Aren't you hot in all that?" Her reply: "I was hot before... I want to stay that way."
