Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

I took tomorrow off. Im planning on riding all day. Or at least after i get my tank bag around 1pm. Probably going to be at least a 100 mile day. And its going to be 90s and high humidity

 

83% as I type.

The Rev-it jacket I got has been great! Keep speeds above 45 and I’m cool! #ATGATT

 

Ive been riding in a black hoodie. Not good, but dont want to wear the flannel from my Harley. I will probably get a textile jacket in the fall.

 

Just wear a tshirt and get a sweet farmers tan

 

Mesh jacket with armor for me. I'm almost ATTGAT but will ride in jeans as opposed to full blown riding pants when it's really hot out. Been riding for about 35 years and likely 250-300k miles so far. Hit a deer once and last year my girlfriend and I were hit head on in TN while on vacation. I'm not going to be a safety Nazi and tell anyone else how they should dress but please be careful and use your heads. Shit happens and it can happen fast. I'd love to eventually meet up with all of you but not at someone's funeral.

Preaching over. You may now continue with your normal discussions.

 

Agreed.

When I took the MSF course last fall, my instructor pounded ATGATT into our heads, and it stuck with me.
I would rather be slightly uncomfortable and hot at a red light if it could potentially save me from a skin graft in the hospital.

Dress for the crash, not for the ride.

 

Went for a ride yesterday with a group of friends.
You can see the guys ducking in the woods for some shade. It was hot out there yesterday.
Then the bike bath time afterwards

 

How do you like the wr450 for trail riding?

 

The single track back there is tight. The wr has more then a enough torque for back km there. 1st and 2nd gear was plenty.
Did max the bike out racing one of the kids back there. It's really a fun bike to ride

Rolled over 400 miles in a week and a half of ownership. Also my tank bag is finally out for delivery. Who knows when Revzilla will ship my axle slider and exhaust

I think Sturgis is this week. I saw some article that says they were trying to block people from coming

 

Looks like it will do everything that i wanted it to. Can carry ~2 water bottles, my phone and my wallet.

 

My bags should be in tomorrow.... but ups so very likely they’ll be delayed lol

 

The Indian reservations aren’t allowing anybody to pass through their land. Going to be a big battle since they technically can’t do that.

 

It didn’t freaking work. Right, tell a bunch of bikers we can’t do something. Here’s Main Street

 

there is so much irony in this though if you think about

 

Lmao that dude on a scooter, whatta hero.

 

‘Murica!
