Gear

[theSteveCo]

Okay - although most of us know each other fairly well, what do you wear when you ride? I'll start....

Going to go fast: my Spidi, spine protector, AS SMX boots, AS GP-plus gloves

Casual ride: Teknic textile jacket, HG textile pants w/ pucks (in case it's not TOO casual), AS Web boots, same gloves

Just going to the bank: same Teknic jacket, jeans, Rockport boots, same glove

The helmet is a given in all situations. Oh, and I have two... one w/ a tinted shield and one w/ clear. Good for riding w/ a passenger and for day or night riding w/o switching shields.

Mellower and hopefully smarter rider now than wild and crazy days.

Only have textile touring jackets, one long style with hard back armor, one regular Frank Thomas but crap sponge back pad :mad . Have a Hein Gericke leather but it's a bomber jacket and no armor at all.

Have a 4-plate back protector on order, can't find my old one dammit but will keep looking.

One pair still too tight Frank Thomas armored gloves. Threw out my old Olympic studded gloves they were ripped and I don't know why I kept them.

Have another cool pair of armored gloves on order.- love this stuff!

No riding pants yet but wear jeans and motocross knee/shin armor underneath. Looking for armored textile overpants (as well as leathers later) maybe just get an aerostitch?

Timberlands here too, sold my old Alpinestars but might get this pair of street Sidi's.

Snell 95 Shoei in basic white- looking for new 2000 lid or whatever is latest spec. (what to do with my old Snell90 Arai? just garbage? sure looks like it)

Still not comfortable yet but give it time.
