idk if im a dick head or not but if i had a motorcycle and it was hot i would wear a t-shirt, some jeans, gloves, and the helmet

ATGATT person. Having once crashed with another biker who only had helmet and seeing how his legs got mangled I never wanted that to happen me. And regarding the "I know the road, ridden it many many times": The problem is that I am not the only person on the road..

blinky, look into Vanson Vent Max 4 Series Jacket.
I have this armor, vents like a tee shirt but is almost bulletproof. Best thing I've purchased so far. I've worn it in 100F no problem.

Well, I probably look like a royal dick in the summer but I'll often just go t-shirt and jeans. I still wear a helmet (It's not against the law not to here), but the helmet is really about it...

Just cut those fucking lines lol.

99% of the time I wear full gear (minus riding pants, I just wear jeans). I have a mesh jacket so even in the summer time it is still comfortable to ride with. I live in Arizona (U.S.) where the air is very arid so that probably helps as well. THIS is one of the states that does not require helmets, haha. Only time I don't wear gear is after giving my bike a good wash, I take it for a short spin to air-dry it, and warm up the chain to apply lubricants. BTW- You rock dude!

i totally compromise my safety! but i'm an idiot for that matter lol

The one time I didn't wear armored pants, I take a rash to a knee avoiding a distracted driver on my scooter. Driver fled the scene. It was great. I'll have knee pads as a compromise next time for shorter rides.

During the summer I chose to wear shorts and a t-shirt. I still had on my gloves and helmet, but I crashed and got really torn up! Couldnt walk for weeks! So I try to wear all my gear more often now......... PS Blinky, your the man- Shout out from the US

Distance honestly doesn't mean much when you are riding. There is still that probability you are going to get hit and personally I'd prefer some protection. Same thoughts with sex, idgaf how long I plan on banging... I'm going to have some protection.

if im going really short distance (like around campus), ill just go t-shirt and helmet (no gloves).
anytime on main roads i have my thin textile jacket and usually jeans or shorts if i run out of jeans.
i dont think shorts are that bad. who cares if you fall your legs get shredded into chicken wings but its all good
