Ok guys ... this man is going to be a new rider, so we need to encourage him to wear full gear.
WEAR FULL GEAR MY FRIEND
I also wear a full face helmet and often my HA bugs the dang hell out of me so I take it off then put helmet on. But, its possible to wear it - turn volume down so no "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeee"
A full face helmet will also prevent flying debris from hitting you in the face as you travel 80 mph down a highway.
Get a leather jacket and tough durable PANTS - if you drop bike and slide with shorts, flip flops and t shirt, you will have road rash scars for life.
FULL GEAR ..... I cannot stress that enough.
Do you know why new riders are called "Squids"?
Because that is what they look like after a motorcycle accident ... I will not describe it - its gross.
don't mean to scare you ... its just a word of caution.
