Last weekend, one of my buddies who rides an old "tuber" Buell had a really weird front brake failure coming hot into a turn. He blew the turn and smacked the mountain.

He was wearing full leathers. He suffered a broken collar bone and 8 broken ribs. No road rash.

Although it was painful, it could have been much worse. I have no doubt that the gear made all the difference.
