Verm, how hot is the 1-pc? Not that I'm planning on getting one, because I sweat when I look out a window (Florida humidity, after all), but I'm just wondering what kind of pain it is to wear those for an extended period of time.. If it isn't below 60 degrees, I wear my mesh Joe Rocket jacket... heh

i dunno, but i do know it's not enough to protect you from cold in the snow.

but i'll find out this spring and summer how hot it is.

I agree. Are you trying to look "too cool" riding with your outfit or are you about riding your machine? What's with the tinted visor at nite. I really don't think I ever heard anything as silly. Why don't you just look for an accident to happen? Think safety first.

both? i guess.

that's why im trying to improve my skills. as i improve, my looks will improve too.

and regarding tinted at night, i do switch it sometimes.

but like i said before...

night riding + tinted + my bike's awesome lights = GOOD visibility

night riding + clear + my bike's awesome lights = BETTER visibility

my point is, tinted at night for me isn't bad. clear is just better. maybe it has to do w/ my bike's great headlights.

sev always ride tinted, my riding buddy always ride tinted, and im sure many others ride w/ tinted at night as well.

there's a checkpoint where we stopped... check the topic "it's so cold" i made in total moto forum.

anyway... i wanna go back there when it's sunny. that canyon road is so much more fun than mulholland viewpoint.

ok... and i forgot you were the 1st one to reply in that post.

yeah, i bet there'll be a lot of agressive riders and drivers there this spring and summer.

i actually saw 2 riders (did the complimentary biker wave) coming down from angeles crest... they might have thought... "is this idiot really gonna go there when it's hailing and snowing?"
