The Top 4 Reasons to Wear a Motorcycle Jacket

If you have not already purchased a Motorcycle Jacket, you should strongly consider it. You don’t need an entire wardrobe of them, but choosing a high quality, durable motorcycle jacket is important for safety when you are riding your motorcycle. Here are the top 5 reasons why you should purchase a motorcycle jacket:

1. Protection: Motorcycle jackets offer the rider protection from both the elements and from injury in the event of a crash. Most come standard with padding in the highest impact areas, such as the shoulder and the elbows. In the event of a potential crash, this padding and protection will help to prevent burns and abrasions that are commonly experienced by riders who are not wearing this protective clothing. Also, many motorcycle jackets some standard with reflective gear that can offer additional safety for riders at night. While these jackets don’t often double as daywear fashion, they are great for ensuring the safety of the riders.

2. Comfort: Motorcycle jackets are not only great for safety reasons, they are also great for giving the rider comfort whether they are just riding around town, or on a long journey. Motorcycle jackets can help protect against wind, sun and heat and even bugs. You would be surprised at how much these environmental elements will affect a rider.

3. Style: Motorcycle jackets can also offer just plain style to riders who wear them. Offered in a variety of materials, styles and colors, riders can truly customize their appearance when riding.

4. Fashion off the bike: Motorcycle jackets have become a mainstream fashion item for many people around the world. They are actually considered to be quite fashionable and trendy, attracting even non-riders to wear them. You will not only be able to get great use from your jacket while on the road, but you can wear it daily as a piece of your wardrobe. The ability to wear the motorcycle jacket any time will also help to defer the costs of your purchase. Consider the item as an investment piece within your wardrobe.

5. Feeling: Motorcycle jackets are just a part of the complete look. Jackets have long been considered a traditional staple for riders, and by wearing one, you will instantly feel like an experienced rider. In fact, the type of jacket that you choose can even give you a certain strut in your walk.

Motorcycle jackets are great for fashion, comfort and safety and should be considered as a main stream staple for all riders.

All answers are appreciated .
Additional Details :
I need an IM screen name as well, it is a very important part of the story line and as soon as I get this information I can start so please answer quickly.
The truth is a more of a realistic story (not about vampires.)The story is actually about Delilah and her beloved boyfriend, John who dies in a motorcycle accident, when this happened (since their two families were friends, they split up and moved to two totally different places when she moves she is stuck in a high school where she knows no one and has a hard time getting use to this new place. She starts spending a lot of time online so one day a strange name IMs her…the.boy020107 and the thing that is so strange about it is that the numbers were the exact date her boyfriend died on, in this situation she becomes lost and confused and eventually finds a new friend.

I have decided for the IM address it is wearing_his_tee.shirt05
haven’t decided on a name I think I’m going to make it Delilah so John can call her Lay how does that sound? Have any middle and last name suggestions for the both of him?
Preview:
The first time Delilah and John met was their life snapshot. The Kansas sun shined above in the pristine blue sky. The navy blue lake glimmered back and the water stood at stand-still. The girl stripped of her t-shirt and sunglasses and dived off the old wooden dock. Snap! With her black- bikini-clad body in mid air in a graceful dive position, John watched and studied the new girl in town. There he sat, inches away from the lake on the hot grass, getting sprinkled with warm lake water watching her come up and gasp for air. As Delilah’s eyes adjusted they focused on the boy her age staring at her. She smiled nervously before pulling herself out of the water.
That night Delilah nearly finished unpacking. Moving from Suffield, Connecticut to a name, Kansas had been one of the most difficult times of her life. Moving here would be like starting over for Delilah, like a new life without the Suffield Academy tigers at her side. Just before Delilah was about to slice open the last cardboard box her mother called from downstairs. “It’s time to go to dinner with the neighbors, sweetie.”
“And make sure you look nice,” my dad added from the back of the house.
“Who are we going to see?”
“Some old friends ours, actually they have a boy that’s your age.”

(also if you have any ideas for the story at all or questions IM me at loyal.to_ryan (yahoo messenger) or email me at saving.ryans_private_life@yahoo.com)

Okay, first…a girl named Lay??? How about Dell? I thinnk that would have been a better nickname for a girl. I’m thinking sexual connotations that could be seen in the nickname. If she has a brain - you might have a problem. As far as a far as a last name Scan/American - how about Hansen?

An Irish middle name for John could be Patrick or Sean. An Irish last name would be anything that has "Mc" in it, such as John Patrick McMahon.

As far as an IM name for the female character - I’d rethink that nickname still. I know it might be hard because no doubt that character is "Lay" to you. Think child molesters, etc.

Hope this helps.

were can i get motorcycle clothing for my 10 pound dog. goggles, jacket/harness etc.?

he needs to ride at my lap or on the rear seat somehow

My lab used to ride on the tank just fine, until she got too big to sit on the tank. She never jumped off, even when other dogs barked at her. Then again she would never leave my side when not on a leash. Never worried about clothing as I had a FLT with a fairing. If you think about it, what’s the difference if the dog rides in a truck bed or if it rides on the tank or a sidecar of a bike?

And I would suggest that those who answered negatively and don’t know what they are talking about, not answer questions when they haven’t got a clue.

There Can Only be One Trail Master

Pride, hubris if you will, can be a nasty trait. I wrecked my whole ride because I was too proud to listen to my competitor’s advice.

I like off-roading. It’s my life. Growing up my father was a big fan of motor sports; my mom, not so much. Every time dad walked into the house with a bleeding leg or broken hand from a riding accident, my mom would say, “Those stupid machines will be the death of you Neddy.” I guess she was right, because he passed away a year ago from an unfortunate motorcycle accident. God bless his soul. We actually etched one of his famous sayings on the tombstone. It reads, “I love the smell of two-stroke in the morning.” That’s what he used to say when we’d cruise around the lake on our motor boat.

I’ve been into 4 wheel off-roading ever since I was 14. My dad used to drive me to a nice big open space like our rival high school’s football field and where we’d do doughnuts. I still remember the first time he took me driving. School had been cancelled because it was snowing. My dad asked if I wanted to go for a cruise in the Jeep. I grabbed my jacket and we took off. We finally got to the field and I remember my dad turned, and looked me up and down. “Son,” he said, “Today you become a man.” He pulled the keys from the ignition and put them in my hands. “Shoot, pa. Are you serious?” I asked, trying to hide my excitement. No words—he just shot me a wink.

When I got behind the steering wheel, I remember my feet couldn’t reach the pedals so we slide the seat up all the way, till it couldn’t get any closer. And from that moment I was hooked. I pushed the gas hard, with my right foot, sending the wheels spinning. As I started to get the feel of the pedals, I became more confident and whipped around the field faster and faster. I was having such a good time, but apparently it’s illegal to drive on school property and without a license. Sure, we had a few court fees and had to do a bit of community service, but it was worth it. Since then I have bought my own Jeep Wrangler and have been competing in the professional off road circuit.

Unfortunately, a recent accident has landed me out of commission. I was unstoppable. I was confident, some may say cocky. The point is, before the competition Big Chuck Masterson, who happens to be my main competition, was eyeballing my ride. He then comes over and tells me I shouldn’t compete because my shocks looked worn. Oh come on. Does he really need me to forfeit to win? There’s no way I was losing without a fight.

Finally it was my turn. In the competition, drivers must traverse down a narrow, mountain path while navigating over various obstacles—anything from pebbles to massive boulders. As I came into the first turn, I was going to a little fast and my front right tire hit hard into a boulder. Rather than absorbing the impact, my shock exploded, sending my Jeep tumbling down the mountain. A destroyed Jeep and twelve broken bones later, I learned my lesson. If I had only listened to Big Chuck I would have been back in action.
