So baddog when you dress up in your leather biker costume..
 

I've always wanted to know, are you idolizing the criminal bikers or the easy riders (aka hippies?) or the gay bar bikers?

I've never understood why you guys feel the need to dress up in ridiculous costumes just to ride a motorcycle. I mean when I go out on a boat I don't dress up like a pirate.

Can you explain?

Why are you thinking about this? I don't understand

For the same reason he's always so worried about my van..

Perhaps you need a meeting in the sauna

Too much bling makes you gay.

If you are talking about leather (jacket, gloves, chaps, boots), it's more a case of protection against a spill. Road burn can be extremely nasty and car drivers are typically unaware of anything outside their little bubbled cockpit when it comes to motorcycles. Some, of course, dress up in ridiculous Sons of Anarchy wannabe type attire, but for the most part, I would say the leather is safety equipment above all else.

All you need to ride is a leather jacket and gloves.

I quite often go riding wearing just a leather jacket and gloves.

I have had a few disapproving glances and some calling me a pervert.

You're taking your chances riding the highways without some leg and foot protection.

Contrary to what some believe, jeans will not protect your legs like leather will in a spill at highway speeds.

quoted for truth...

This is a great question. I am waiting to hear a legit answer on this but I doubt you will get it aside from a general excuse that it protects the rider from road rash.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

ever ride in the rain?

there's a difference between riding around town in circles like an asshole showing off and actually going on a road trip when it comes to protection.

Richard, you ignorant twat.

December 1986 I was in a pretty bad wreck with a car. I broke my tibia, fibula and many bones in my foot.

I was wearing thick chaps that were torn up.

I didn't spill a drop of blood because the chaps saved me

regardless if your wearing this stuff or not, if you wipe out you're not going to be well protected flying at 90 KM/H

What makes you think I am worried about your van?

Fantasizing again?

My wreck was at 50 MPH

Not wearing leather and/or protective gear is pure stupidity at any speed...

You seem to like to make topics about me, like the one you made last night. Seems you are very worried about my life style so I'm returning the concern..

You still haven't answered..

Criminal biker?
Hippy Biker?
Gay biker?

There are way better leathers out there to protect you if it was about "protection" than stupid biker jackets and leather chaps.. Most of those Harley style leathers aren't think or tough enough to do much of a job.. We all know it's just a peer pressure style code that everyone who wants to be a biker has to follow or the other guys in costumes point and laugh..

Kinda like teens in junior high school all have to wear the correct uniform for their chosen group.

Just wondering, what part of my post implied I was worried about you or your lifestyle?

Homeless and a poor understanding of the English language.

Bingo !!

They feel badass in leather it's that simple :1orglaugh

You after the accident? God bless 🙏

Ridiculous comparison. If you said "when I go on a boat I do not dress like the guys on a boat do" it would make sense.

He dresses like bikers do, not like some 0.000000001% of bikers (aka as rare as pirates) do.

Maybe closer example would be mocking people wearing boat shoes when they go on a boat...

So in other words you just like to asume a lot and project what you think you know about someone.

In that case I'm going with the belief that you watched easy rider one too many times and want to be free like a hippie but your hard nose conservative mindset stops you.

Your only escape is to dress up in costume and pretend to live the life. Yet when someone actually lives a free life you resort to projecting anger and contempt, because deep down inside you want to but are sacred to do it yourself.

How's that for projection?

If you want safety you wear a bright riding suit so drivers can see you easily while also being protected from road rash..but of couse that's not the cool biker look..

He just jealous because you live a truly free mobile life and his 1940's yellow trailer is on cinder blocks :2 cents:

Your argument is silly, bikers dress up in costume to look cool in their little sub culture.

The outfits are not as safe as wearing actual safety equipment but it doesn't look cool to wear safety gear..

It would be like a white water kayakER wearing a pirate uniform and hat instead of a dry suit and helmet.

Fuck off Nico-T the gig is up go somewhere else and spread your judgement & hate you coward :321GFY

You offer nothing here other than judgement and negativity. No cool threads about anything cool in the world, just posting in other people threads your negativity and judgement. Nobody likes that.

You've lost your edge on the political front so now you're just trolling everyone with personal hate, fuck off.

Triggered snowflake doesn't even know who he is talking to.

Nice place man .. not :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

No wonder you're so grouchy and mean lately :disgust

Old trailers are cool and that one is awesome. I'd like to see the interior.

Why is it that only Harley riders wear leather chaps and boots, and everyone else on a motorcycle is wearing jeans and sneakers?

Because they, like you, are idiots.

Wearing shorts and thongs but wearing a full face helmet

they aren't and who the fuck wears sneakers?

ohhh i get it.. you morons have been watching sons of anarchy and equate that to everyone who rides a motorcycle...

sorry my bad, good luck with your pizza diet.

Again, leather jackets etc are very popular biker attire. It is usual/normal.
Is pirate attire even remotely as usual among boat people?

Yeah, safety equipment may be safer, but as you know - style plays a part in everything. For example high heels are not as safe and not as comfortable as flats, but woman wear them - they sacrifice some comfort/safety for style.
And that is very usual/common human behavior.

Take your meds, mental nut case. :2 cents:

I am laughing at how this retard thinks.
Op is hating baddog, I come in to defend him, yet I am the one who spreads hate and not the Op.
With this mental specimen it goes far beyond double standard, it goes to the territory of mental asylum patient running wild on the interwebs...

You're a Slovakian living in a Slovakian slum.

You don't live in America. You aren't familiar with bikers or know any in person. Yet here you are posting as if you know something you don't, yet again.

How bout you create some threads for once and contribute something you know about instead of posting in every thread putting down non white nationalist as if you know something more than them on every subject? Nah too much thought and contemplation for your simple mind.

The gig is up man. Now that your politics is done you just fuck with every non white nationalist by nitpicking on shit you know nothing about and putting them down in every thread.

Time to up your game or STFU :disgust Make your own threads on topics you know something about.

What about when you dress up as a neo-liberal as the antithesis of George Washington?

.

I'm now blind after seeing that

Look at your fake nic trolling all the non white nationalist with hate and contributing nothing else here. You're a piece of shit. Kill yourself, we'll have 5 less fake hate nics here :banana

Jeans tear like a paper tissue when grated over asphalt at high speed...sneakers fall off from the tumble and friction like slippers would...

Hodgkinson's disease

How many years did you ride a bike Richard?

After seeing lots of accidents, I would do my research and wear every single necessary safety item.

Chaps

Boots

I never buy off the rack, the leather is thinner than I like and 90% of the time they mess up with zipper location
