Leather jacket, helmet, gloves, jeans & boots for me when I am riding on the street. Same goes for any passenger I have on the Valkyrie.

I have the scars from falling on the street with a t-shirt on, never again. I didn't wear my leather jacket because of 95 degree heat and I paid the price one night. Sweat is cooler than blood...I learned that the hard way.

A simple low side hitting some sand on the street almost cost me a skin graft in 1995.
