Yep,
You can get mighty darn toasty in leathers in the summer. I could only
manage them during the cooler months. Levi's never let me down though..slide
across Lakewood Blvd. one wet afternoon (blasted concrete roads!) Few
scratches on the Katana's cowling, but not on me
I hated when Pete Wilson made the helmet law out there. I think the
other protective clothing does as much to save your butt than the helmet
does.

And the funny part,
The guys splitting lanes would have flip flops , shorts and rarely
more
than a tee-shirt, if that, on. But they would have a 400 buck Shoei
helmet on!!!! At least the CHP could identify the head rolling around on
the 91 !!!

Oh yeah...I get a laugh every time I see one those 'organ donors'.

It get's uncomfortable in the summer, so I'll shed the chaps and
if really bad, the gloves. My helmet's not fullfaced so that's not
too bad. I might not zip the jacket all the way up for ventilation.
But I'd rather have my skin should I go down on the pavement.
