nice video bro! the sad truth is that by the time you come back, the gear will be gone and then you would look like a squid riding home :)

Why the jumpsuit? Just throw on a leather jacket and some riding pants, then you wont have to look like a knob taking off a shit ton of clothes just to get off the bike

I would rather wear safety gear better be safe then sorry

@1shadowfang8 ok if you get the right boots they are comfortable to walk in and not just ride in so that eliminates shoes. get a decent mid/summer weight jacket and just layer up and you wont have to have a bunch of gear. pants are up to you, i wear jeans but they suck if you lay the bike down and yes i have wrecked in the before.

@Krazer2100 My Aerostich Combat Touring boots are big, and can't fit through the leg. They are easy to get on and off, and best of all, have prevented my ankle from being crushed in multple accidents.

@1shadowfang8 Check out a "Python" cable lock. I have a 15 foot length cable lock by Python and I use it to lock my bike, and loop it through my suit and helmet when I am in areas where theft is likely.

@AtlasRider thanks bro still thinking of buying a bike... might ride without boots unless there is a way to lock boots onto the bike somehow.. you should invent something like that man.... boots lock on your bike.... you could just tie shoes on there?hmm I know I can phyton the pants helmet and jacket but boots....

@1shadowfang8 There also is a steel mesh net bag by PacSafe. I used a rainproof Sealine bag (intended for kayaking) and would put the PacSafe net over the Sealine bag. You could put a pair of boots in there.
