8) Mwuahahaha the shinobi look eh? That'd be awesome. It would be hella' funny too because IF someone tried to be like,"Heh, you look rediculous!" A great retort would be,"Wha? gi... gixxer 1k? Is that what you're talking about? How it can kill anything you drive? Yeah ok, just making that clear."

Then again it probably would look pretty cool flying on the interstate. Make sure it's on though!

Whatever you're into dude. . .

But I'd be a bit scared of that scarf/cape thingy getting nailed with a crosswind and covering my face shield for even a second. Dangerous. But then again, you could use your super powers and prevent this from happening, right Hero?

Long flapping objects wrapped around your neck while riding a motorcycle....
In my little world this sounds like a recipe for very bad things happening. I myself would not nor would I allow anyone in my family to do this. Way too many ways to slip up on this one. There is a reason we wear close fitting clothing on bikes.
I would be the old, slow guy. Just let me know where you are going and I'll try to get there before you leave.

i think that's the last piece i need to complete the look i want.
Okay, I have to ask...are you actually serious about this???? If so, I don't want to be riding or driving behind you when you dump your bike because achieving your "look" interfered with your riding safety!! Sorry to be such a party-pooper, but really, I would think that you wouldn't want any extra distractions while you're learning to tame that big gixxer.

I don't know. I doubt it'd be as big of a problem as ya'll are making it out to be.

He could always pull over and take it off if it does get to be that way.

He could be. It's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it.

Plus a great way to meet chicks. They always seem to be getting dropped out of windows/grabbed by giant apes/robbed/stuck in burning buildings and the like.


sometimes when in full riding gear i think i look like a lame super hero because of all the colors and the tightness of it all

that's exactly what i had in mind.

but anyway, i'll research into it more to see how dangerous it can be. and also, i'll test it out on some crosswinds at a safer place to see if it really has a chance of coming away from my back and covering my face.

You should get the bug antennas for your helmet too!

I think only cartoon superheros would look cool in it. Wearing a scarf while you ride might get you more attention from the fellas though.
