Default seriously?

I guess I am just ranting but I will never understand the point of wearing an armor vest but no helmet. I mean seriously do you think you look cool or something? You look like a complete dumbass wearing a vest but no helmet what is the point.

Or how about the dude riding with a helmet but the chick on back has no helmet, shorts, flip flops, and a tank top on. Are you kidding me.

Rant off

Ever since 50cent came out the bulletproof vest look has been "in".... Shameful its not a "if I crash my bike, it will save my life vest" all well...

Yea.. I had to dump my slurpee out so I could piss in the cup and throw it on him when I made it back around the block. Sometimes, sacrifices must be made

i know someone who wrecked with one of those icon vest armor things and it didn't do shit to protect him. broken elbow, really bad belly rash, and some rash on his ribs. once he started sliding the vest just came up to his neck, and left just about his whole upper body exposed to asphalt

I don't get it....how though? It's got straps that wrap around your waist...I think I'm going to need to investigate this situation further...

I'm going to start taking pictures of all the squids I see riding with no gear just to put them on blast online...Let's see how many are riding around from TR

You think thats bad? I tried finding someone to put a bulletproof lining in my jacket via Google...you should've seen the ridiculous shit I came up with. These fags on cruisers wear FAKE bulletproof vests over their clothing as a style item...

Wait, That is the "IN" thing now... Where can I get a Fake Vest? And Patches?
You know where I can get something to make a bike sound Faster? Or some more Chrome Enhancements?

I work with one of those Hardcore Weekend Bikers... Every time he rides his bike in to work, he has to show everyone the New Crap he decides to stick on it. He seriously has way over $3k into mods on a $3k cruiser and it is way to much. So, I tried to tell him what a squid was and he didn't get it... LMAO

Syed leather in Orlando can do them for you. Theres a local guy in tampa too but hes not that good, I dont even know if hes still around. But if you want the job done right Syed is best for that.
