Unhappy Lowering?

What are the pros and cons of having your bike lowered? I dropped mine yesterday when I was on an incline, trying to get back out on the road because I couldn't reach the ground with my feet.

Yes there is eye coverage, and the bottom part covers up to your nose so there is not much exposed. I really like the sun glasses part because you don't have to worry about adjusting them.

cleaning textile jacket

Anyone have tips on cleaning a textile jacket with armour? I rode today and you can really tell on the white part of my jacket where I hit bugs. I'm not sure what to use to clean it.

I got my new helmet yesterday, an HJC IS-16. I really like it. It has the flip down sunglasses built into the helmet. It is real light and has lots of venting. I would recommend this helmet.:D
