I'm sure it'll be tough to wheelie with your shoulders, elbows and arms all fucked up too.

If it's 90 degrees out, i'm in a t-shirt, pants (sometimes shorts), a half helmet and glasses. It's stupid. But I refuse to wear leather in 90 degrees.

Get a mesh jacket with armor. Better then nothing.

Kimmel went down? Yes.

What was he doing riding in shorts and sandals? Being Squidly.

He didn't have insurance either did he? Nope...

He needs new fairings / muffler ( Destroyed his CF Yosh Pipe) Rear fender/light, Rear wheel, widscreen, and I think pegs/shifter...

He has rash on both legs, arms, back, feet etc... He hasn't been into work since it happened. He would be missing an ear if he wasn't wearing his helmet...

You guys fucking crack me up with the chaps thing. I can expect it like I can expect, "That'll buff right out," in a crash post.




















I gave the pair of chaps I had to my mom anyway!

Don't listen to these guys, they all think they're road course racers by day and extreme stunnas by night. You ride an intruder 800, I bet your idea of a fun ride is 45mph down the coastline, not 125mph down Patterson Rd. Your gear is fine.

That said, wanna come riding with us sometime? B&H Productions represents the cruiser population of Bike Tech proper.
