Protect your entire body on every ride 30 MA15+

If you crash and you’re not wearing protective clothing, it only takes 0.03 seconds for the sneaker to burst. 0.6 seconds for the jeans to disintegrate. The hoodie - gone in a mere 0.03 seconds.

Also very important are good leather gloves. The flesh on your hand cures very bad. But leather should be standard vor everything in my opinion and it looks dope on a sporty bike aswell

[@hippo2065]

[@Reaper51359]

@@hippo2065 I can confirm that those thinner ones will disintegrate the second they touch pavement unless they have an armoured palm. I lowsided last season, new rider who got too cocky. Was just wearing gloves, helmet and steel toes. Got a bunch of really bad road rash on my knees, forearm and palm. I had thinner gloves on that the dealer assured me were mid range. I put my palm down to get pressure off my forearm and it was torn through pretty much immediately.

My brother was hit by a driver who crossed a red light, he flew more than 10 feet and broke his right arm. However he was wearing a full riding suit with the complete gear. Not one scratch… if it wasn’t for that suit, he’d be dead. Sure he broke his arm but he would have been worse or dead if he wore regular clothes, as many do 🙄

[@steve00alt70]

Never assume car drivers will stop at a red. Did he get T boned?

The suit did not save his life. They save some broken joints and a lot of rashed skin. Helmets and airbags save lives.

[@Roddy556]

Seeing as the number one goal when riding is to not get hurt that doesn't seem that funny. More like a good idea.

[@devalue7064]

Well... at some point, you encounter diminishing returns. You may have the best leather suit in the world, but if you hit something head-on that stops all your momentum, the suit will just become a leather bag full of minced meat. (but of course you need to wear some protective equipment, especially spine protector is underrated)

[@poopmgee100]

Can confirm this happened to me. Had a full suit for the track. Was riding on a Friday morning in jeans and a dri fit t shirt. Luckily it was light but I have scars on my top shoulder that will never go away. WEAR UR GEAR ALL THE TIME

I clipped a guardrail on the way to work one day. My leather jacket kept gravel out of my shattered arm that split open on impact. The jacket, boots, and gloves were all scuffed. But most alarming was the chip missing out of the front of my full-face helmet! Granted, I had burns and a shattered arm but could have had a shattered jaw and missing teeth as well.

[@hiddendragon415]

I had a open face helmet alongside a full face that I used for hot days or short trips. Iv'e tossed it in the bin. There are plenty of full face helmets that allow air in to cool, not worth loosing your jaw.

Huge advocate for safety riding gear. I was the type to ride with vans and a cool tshirt. One cold night I happened to have a riding jacket and my riding boots on and a lady ran a red light and knocked me out of my motorcycle.

About time another advert like that was put up again by a TAC in Australia. TAC Vic had Doohan doing one back in 2015 about safety gear. Here in SA, and likely other states, there was one that would come up before movies at the cinema with a rider going down and it talking about safety gear, think that was also TAC Vic. As a motorcyclist, now self-retired from riding due to medical reasons because I dont want to become a statistic and leave some driver/family out there think they are to blame for it. I wont fully go into only to say apnea is involved. I always shake my head when I see idiots on bikes wearing shorts and sandals, or even a t-shirt and jeans. When I got my bike at 17, the first thing I did was buy leathers and decent boots, and believe me, they saved me twice from road rash injuries.

[@toyotafj4579]

Yeah, even for the tight budget blokes, most safety lace up boots that are steel caps will do the job.

Depending on what speed and what rating your gear has it might only protect from road rash at a certain speed and not protect from blunt force. Some jackets do have stiffer protections that def help with broken bones, though they're more expensive and stiff
