Your philosophy on wearing gear
 

What's your overall philosophy on wearing riding gear? Do you believe in AGATT, or are there times you feel you don't need it (and if so, when/why?)?

NEVER EVER EVER NEVER less than EVERYTHING. I'm talking full leathers, back protector, boots, helmet, and gloves. Thats my minumun. EVERY TIME I START THE BIKE.

I wear all gear all the time. I don't have leather pants right now but that is next on my list as well as a back protector.

I got my Dianese for $58 bucks shipped. It's not the top of the line...but it was a couple years ago. I can point you in that direction if you're interested.

Pants are all I'm missing as well, but the rest of it - EVERYTIME, without fail. I don't even like pulling the bike into the garage without gloves on (it just feels weird!)

Yeah I'm interested. :dthumb:

Currently says he's sold out...but has a better deal coming. But thats the one I have. Can't even tell I'm wearing it when it's on.

bare minimum is gloves, jacket, helmet, boots

Thanks, I'll check back in March.

All gear, all the time here as well. I don't have any good pants for riding (that I can currently fit into). However, I have a few pairs of Kevlar jeans that I try and wear most of the time i'm riding. But I always have on a helmet, gloves, jacket, and boots.
