Cast you minds back to the last time you were out riding on a hot day.

Is it me or do a lot of Ninja riders were T-shirts, sometimes shorts.

It is because we are the "Hard Men" of the biking community Neutral

For many of us middle-class office workers, the word 'Ninja' on our bikes brings us closer to the boy-racer street cred we so desparately desire. Rolling Eyes

Ride my Ninja everyday! Yeah I wear shorts and T-shirts when its hot, but only only under my leathers.

I did go out round the block when I was younger on my NSR125 with shorts and t-shirt on. My mum was waiting outside when I returned with a carving knife ready to chop my balls off! Shocked

Funny that I have never done that again!

I didnt mean it as an offensive thing like.

Just i noticed quite a few in recent weeks, but not on any other bike.

There just asking for a trip to the skin clinic!!!!

I ride a zx6r and never go out without my gear on. Just as well cos earlier this year I had a small blip, lost the back end and ended up skidding down the tarmac.. Thank you Mr Cow for my leathers Laughing

I'm sure "BrokenNinja" should be my name right now! Laughing

The last time I was riding my Ninja I was (thankfully) wearing full body armour.

Otherwise I might not have been here to tell you that!

Thumbs Up

I'd agree with ProXimaCore - I tend to see more gixer riders out in jeans and t-shirt! 99% of the ninja riders I know wear their leathers 99% of the time!

It all depends on the situation.

If I'm going to work (25 miles fast A roads) then i get fully suited up. If going to college (5 minutes away), I put on jeans, leather jacket, boots and gloves. If going to the gym (about 2 minutes away - i'm just lazy), leather jacket, gloves...umm...tracky bottoms, trainers. I go the quiet way though.

Tend to see me more Gixxer riders in useless stuff. Oh, and all bar 3 people who ride at college. All the scooter riders don't even bother with gloves.

Always wear gloves and a helmet, even if starkers.
