wearing a bunch of gear isnt a pain in the ass?
Rain isnt really a problem, and if you plan ahead you can avoid it by driving on rainy days. The gear I dont mind at all, because if you do dump it its going to save your hide.
Evan Wrote:and who gives a shit about going fast on the street?
I dont but thats generally one of the reasons people buy expensive cars, because they go fast.
Evan Wrote:A bike may be fast, but using a bike's potential on the street just exaggerates why you shouldnt ride one in the first place
The bike's potential is so far above the potential of most riders that you're pushing your own comfort level and ability before you get anywhere close to what the bike can do.
