OH, I also have a Scorpion Nip/Tuck jacket that I wore the last 2 seasons. It feels more comfortable than my leather jacket, but my skin will feel more comfortable if I crash in the leather jacket I'm sure.

I'll most likely sell the Scorpion jacket shortly.

ATGATT

So when I finally decided to buy a motorcycle I drew up some guidelines. I know I can be a showoff, and I know I can be a dumsh*t. So I told myself all the gear, all the time.

Shoe Quest
Dainese Crono Textline with G series back protector (don't wear the winter liner)
Rev'it Airwave pants with Alpinestars free ride shorts sewn in and knee sliders
TCX X-square boots
Dainese Carbon Cover S-ST gloves


Even just heading into downtown, I throw it all on, because I want every advantage I can get should something go wrong! And, because of it, I am very comfortable on my bike
