        The same thing I wear all year, full leathers.
        90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

          sometimes I go this route. the underwear does make a positive difference.

            I was out tonight (nearly 40 degrees C here) in full face helmet, mesh armoured jacket, armoured pants, riding boots and gloves. Friggin' hot, but that's the only way I ride

            Instead of telling someone who rides a motorcycle how dangerous it is -- LOOK TWICE before switching lanes, making turns, or pulling out of a drive way. Stay on your side of the road, especially in corners. Don't FOLLOW too closely; bikes can stop faster than cars can. Keep your eyes on the road and off your cell phones. If you care about someone who rides a motorcycle, please repost

              ICON Mesh Jacket, ICON pusuit gloves, helmet, I don't wear riding pants, just jeans, and boots. It's always hot here, our winter is about 2 days long.

                Leather perforated Jacket - then soak a T shirt with water, you will feel cool for about 30mins to an hour (depending on speed and temperature). I use this method anytime temp is above 85F.

                      For now I'm wearing an Xelement Tri-Tex armored jacket, Fly Racing mesh gloves, and under my jacket I recently started wearing knock off Under Armor tshirts that really work well. I'm soon to be getting a Joe Rocket Mesh Jacket and Joe Rocket Rush Gloves.

                        I ride with jacket and pants - protective. I just ponder the results if I were to fall off the bike at high speeds and when I think of that,...... a little heat and sweat is really a better option to missing or scraped off body parts.

                              I have a mesh Fulmer jacket (liner removed) and a Shoei Qwest helmet. The jacket breaths really well and gets a nice breeze over 15mph. The Qwest helmet is pretty cool once you hit 25mph. Neither are particularly uncomfortable at stop lights. Also, I am using kevlar-lined jeans that are very comfortable. I'm in Tampa, and this gear is very comfortable, even though it's been in the low 90's for much of the past couple weeks.
