    It depends on how I feel that day.

    Sometimes I do. Sometimes I don't. I know what the consequences will be if I do or don't.

        Always wear everything I have. I still don't have leather pants but at least wear the Draggin Jeans everytime I am on the bike.

          Always full gear, but there's not always anything under it

            Well i hadn't made sure the tankbag was secured properly so it slapped me in the face while in a turn, which caused me to run wide and 'kick' a roadside marker while doing 50mph+

            Now my sore foot's been keeping me from riding for 3 days now, during some of the best weather we've had all year *cry*

            If only i'd worn my boots i'd have hardly noticed it

            atleast the Kat's built of sterner stuff, not a scratch on it from the ordeal
            Ouch, man thats gotta suck !! sorry man !

            I once smacked my elbow into the mirror of a car, while riding thru a parking lot, he had backed out and was waiting for me to pass him, and decided to pull out anyway, I swerved by somehow smacked my elbow on his mirror.. man that hurt !!! even with a jacket on !!

              I would have stopped the bike, and beat his arse.

                  I 99% of the time, wear my helmet. I always wear gloves, and normally wear a jacket...unless its really really hot and don't plan on really gettin on it. if i plan on really riding, then i'll wear the jacket no matter what.
                  if its got 2 wheels or a skirt....i'll ride it.

                    I always wear a helmet and gloves ANYWHERE I go. I will confess that I do not always wear my jacket.

                          well, i would say 98% of the time i wear jacket, and lid. dont have riding gloves, boots or pants yet. but, there has been a couple of times that i've just ran down to the store without my lid and jacket on. middle of the day 90* out and its through city streets. no major riding just 25mph down the street and back.

                            Most of the time it is full gear because the weather here makes it comfortable. Somedays it is just the lid and gloves with jeans and a t-shirt. If it's really hot, shorts, sneakers, t-shirt and gloves.
                            If I am in New Hampshire, just the gloves.
                            6 voted no helmat at times, but they did not admit it here....why is that?
                            I don't have a short temper. I just have a quick reaction to bullshit.

                              I went out in shorts once... but now I always have jeans on. More comfy for me.

                                Helmet, gloves, and work boots always but not always a jacket in the FL heat.
