Engine heat burning thighs

i don't commute on bike as there were too many idiot who can't drive let alone think their phone is more important than my life, bike is purely for leisure, weekend ride where forecast dry or track day. Common sense right? its going to get hot hot if you stuck in the traffic, it's common sense that if you are not wearing leather or kevlar, it's going to burn your thigh like Japanese Yakitori right? i just don't get it, people complaint about the seat height, the heat, the compliance plate and so on......really? lmao
 
As someone here suggested "hot pot holders" stuffed in my undersuit works wonders. I don't even think about street riding without them. No more heat rash for days.

No V4 but I usually have a football sock rolled up and shoved down the front of my trousers, seems to visually assist. Hope I never end up in hospital!
 
Hey hey nothing wrong with Ninjas :p. As boring as my 10R was on the road, she imo was sexy looking, ran cool, RELIABLE and was a weapon on track.
But yeh, grab a pair of leather race pants and you'll be fine.

you probably already know what the after effects of road rash are.. once I found out I got myself a full suit and gloves and have never ridden without them ever since.

shoes with lace..hate for your lace to get caught on the peg.. too pretty a bike to drop at zero speed.

please take my comments with the good intent they come with.

be safe fellow duck fan

Thank you for the suggestion but I was just ridding around town running some errands, probably didn't go over 25-30 MPH

Anybody riding in shorts no matter how slow or how far has no idea what they're doing. Shorts on any sport bike is absolutely insane and childish. Try jumping off at 25mph..Unbelievable...For sure this forum has taken a wrong turn with this pic posted...



Lmao you are right, next time I will wear my racing suit to go get a haircut...

No, of course not, but jeans and a jacket wouldn't go a miss. Look man, people are just giving you sound advice, no need to be all Billy big balls


I have been ridding bikes for over 15 years so I'm well aware of the risks I take every time I get on my bikes.

I'm not playing billy balls at all... I do appreciate a suggestion but We are pass that point when some people start posting smartass repetitive comments.

it's just funny how some of you are hypocrites, and full of .....

I can assure you I'm not the only person ridding in shorts in this forum. I'm an adult and I have been ridding for over 15 years. I can decide how much risk I'm willing to take when I ride my bike

I will keep ridding in short when I take my bike to the gym or running errands near my house...

I'm from Miami in FL you don't even need a helmet as long as you wear eye protection, it's safe? No but who cares??? It's up to the individual to decide how much risk they are willing to take when they ride a bike

Some might called you names for taken the risk of ridding a bike
