As a semi-professional costumer, I offer the following suggestions. One, get a balacava (example here) to cover the neck. Two, look into different boots that cover the bottom of the feet.. or for goodness sake, don't wear white socks!

u/penguinpat · 10 pointsr/motorcycles

Check out the wind jammer; it's essentially what you've described and is available at a reasonable price.

I’ve used these for three years. Similar to what Ryan shows but cheaper and more figment options. His analysis is sound. I can hold conversations with my helmet on but don’t get fatigued with 600 mile days in the saddle.

Anything that has padding. I made the mistake first year of getting costume goggles like this, thinking they could be my main goggles. That was a mistake. I wore them for like 5 minutes and they were horrible. Now I only wear them on my head, for looks.

Same year, I also got these. They worked just fine, but I did lose a lens by the end of the week. It was nice that it came with both the clear and tinted, so that I could have a backup pair, as well as having a pair for day and night.

Second year I got a couple cheaper pairs like this thinking they were similar to the Red Barons. Those sucked too. The tiny bit of foam made them uncomfortable. They touched my eyes. I gave them away. At least someone else was happy to have them.

Then I got a pair like this like this (can't find the exact same ones but very similar). They were actually like... surprisingly good, even for the price. Comfy, and they feel relatively strong. They are cheap, but have lots of padding and good coverage. They have some vents (most goggles do) but I just covered them with a little tape. I ordered a bunch more on Ebay/Ali this year for like $4 to give away, they all seem to be pretty much the same thing.

You can definitely get better ones; I've been on a budget so I haven't really been able to justify spending $50 on a couple pairs of goggles. Basically any ski, snowboard, or motorcycle goggles would be fine.

Not everyone wears goggles, but I would recommend having them anyways until you know for sure if you need them. I personally wouldn't spend too much on them, just make sure they have padding, and I would get one clear pair and one tinted pair (day and night).

u/MedCityMoto · 9 pointsr/motorcycles

I use this chin mount:

https://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-Helmet-Chin-Mount-GoPro/dp/B074W2J774

They run sales on them for $10-$15 less, which is a fair price. Really easy to put on, have it on my X-Fourteen and my girlfriend's RF1200. Straighten the arms out so that the middle comes in full contact first, then press the arms against the sides. Nice secure fit, great POV.

u/jwhite2386 · 8 pointsr/motorcycles

I have these for music

I have these for track days

In reality the etymotic motorcycle plugs are good, but the ones that cost $1 from the hardware store are just as good. The headphones are the best I've found for riding though. I abuse them too...I use them snowboarding, snowmobiling, and on airplanes.

Edit* They are not the most comfortable for all, but work for me. Etymotic used to make the ER6i which were incredible because they were much smaller, but they stopped making them and my old pair finally fell apart from hard use.

u/rottenartist · 8 pointsr/hauntedattractions

Get baby powder. Before you put on the mask, throw a bunch of baby powder into the mask, shake it around, shake it back out. Putting the mask on and taking it off will be much easier now and less likely to tear the mask. Keep a small travel-sized bottle of powder with you when you go on break to put into the mask.

Consider buying a very thin balaclava like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0012TZ04E/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It makes wearing the mask much nicer and also makes it easier to put on and off. You can either tuck the opening in the balaclava below your chin or cut a mouth hole for easier breathing if the fabric feels restrictive.

At the very least, get a cheap wig cap from Wal-mart or even a Halloween store. That will keep your hair from moving around and getting in your face and also keep the mask from tugging at your hair.

Ask for explicit instructions on how to put on the mask and take it off. NEVER EVER grab the face of the mask to adjust it. Always use the flat palms of your hands on the sides or top of the mask to shift it around on your head. The face of the mask is the thinnest part and is easiest to tear. Never hold the mask by the face, always by the head or both hands holding the lower chest and shoulder edges.

Put on the mask and take it off by sliding your hands, flat, palms facing each other, up inside the neck of the mask. Gently stretch your flat hands away from each other inside the neck of the mask to open up the neck and slide it on or off your head.

u/Thedinkyfairy · 7 pointsr/Coachella

i've been rocking these for a couple years now.
For $30, it's pretty stellar bang for your buck. I go to lots of club shows, raves and music festivals so these have been an absolute god send.

u/potato0 · 7 pointsr/BurningMan

These cooling towels are AWESOME. They are made of a material that water soaks into, but doesn't come out of easily. This means they hold a ton of water, stay wet for ages, and don't get anything touching them wet at all (so you don't get an irritated neck like you do from wearing a wet towel). Seriously if you wet one of these and give it a squeeze, you'll be amazed by how much water comes out. They dry stiff, so make sure to fold them up neatly while they're still wet. Highly, highly recommended.

Shemaghs make great dust masks, head scarves, and hats. There is a reason these things are so popular in the desert. Lots of colors too.

These are the disposable dust masks to get. For a proper whiteout, they offer better filtration/protection than a bandana, and the valve means you can actually wear them for more than five minutes without suffocating. They come in little individually wrapped packs, which mean they're great for gifts (although I'd unwrap the ones you aren't planning to carry around as a gift at home).

Not prime, but free shipping, and if you order now they'll get here: goggles. Comes with a day and night set, inexpensive and highly recommended. These are my go-to utility goggles.

These personal misters are good. They aren't durable, so don't count on it lasting more than a year, but they're much more compact than the big garden sprayers.

If you feel the need to own a Soviet Russian spec gas mask, amazon has one for 10 bucks. Protip: that bag it comes with is the perfect size to stick a 1 gallon waterbottle (the kind with the peice of tape a handle, not the ones with the handle built into the bottle) to turn it into a canteen.

If you enjoy biking, and tend to wear boots, wide, grippy pedals are great bike upgrade. I was really suprised at the difference they made for stability and my ability to comfortably put power to the ground. I went for these ones that were on sale last year (not prime), but the shape is what matters from what I can tell, so any ones like that with the grip nubs should be good. There are cheaper ones made of plastic, but I find plastic pedals crack on the playa way too easily, and a decent set of metal ones was worth the investment.

u/youAreAllRetards · 6 pointsr/klr650

Height should be your biggest concern.

I'm 5'11", with kinda short legs, too. I couldn't ride this bike if it were any higher. You can get lowering links, and a different seat, and you should be OK - right about where I'm at, but it may never be "like a glove" comfortable.

It will totally get the city job done. Little box on the back, and you're good to go. When they hit potholes, and nearly lose it, you'll float over like nothing. Mine is a daily commuter and a weekend warrior. There is nothing this bike won't do "pretty ok".

Riding is riding. Unless you're trying to keep up with people doing 80+, you'll be just fine. The bike is as much fun as any other bike on the street at <60mph. I've ridden with groups of guys on harleys, groups of older guys on Can-Am and Goldwing trikes, adventure bike groups, groups of kids on dirtbikes, families on atvs, and in giant packs of streetbikes on weekend evenings.

Travelling far distance ... don't do it unless you're comfortable on a bike already. Riding for hours on end can play tricks with your concentration and whatnot. If you must, and you're not that experienced, plan on a 15-20 minute break for every hour riding. Just do it.

Here's some shit that I learned the hard way:

Change the oil/filters before you go, and check the plug. Check your air filter after 1000 miles of highway/trail. Plan your trip to avoid interstate. You will be much more relaxed on smaller highways, and you won't have as many trucks and their drafts to contend with. Calculate your gas mileage at every fillup. Little problems can show up as dropping mileage before they become big problems. Put some flat stop in your tubes. Give the tires a push check before starting every time. Bring rain riding gear, and hope you don't need it. Get a throttle lock. Either a good one or a cheap one. The KLR will vibrate your hands numb, you will need to get your hand off the bars for a bit. Wear a camelback water bag. A good GPS/phone mount that offers visibility without having to look away from the road is really nice when going through unfamiliar towns. Make sure you have a usb charger if you don't have a 12v socket. for your gps/phone on the bike. Carry extra cheap eye protection. One of those ATV seat pads can help if you get a sore ass easily. Don't beeline it to your destination - make a point to include a side-trip up a mountain or something as often as you can.

I think you'll end up liking the bike, and you'll end up going on that "adventure" ride sooner than you think :)

Lanesplitting is as easy as you want it to be, with no panniers. It starts to get hairy above 60, because after that the KLR just doesn't have the instant go that you need to zip through smaller spaces. So at those speeds, you're more like a cruiser bike. But at city speeds, once you've been in the saddle a few months, it feels really small in traffic.



u/OfficialGarwood · 6 pointsr/PerfectTiming

Bro, you can even look like The fucking Master Chief

u/GalacticArachnids · 6 pointsr/hiphopheads

They are a necessity. Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise.

You'll be able to hear more with earplugs as your hearing won't be as distorted due to how ungodly fucking loud shows are.

I just got these.
They don't muffle the treble and mids, but saves your hearing as long as you're not right in front of the monitors.

I like having the foam tips due to comfort and seal, but they sell a package without them that's a bit cheaper.

u/LastWalker · 5 pointsr/longboarding

Maybe take a look at the downhill jackets as well. something like this maybe. A bit less pricey and maybe probably?
enough. I didn't have to test it yet

u/tyrankh11 · 5 pointsr/skiing

You'll probably be renting most of your ski gear, so here are the warm items you'll want:

  1. GLOVES. Since you're just going on vacation, get a moderately good pair that are waterproof, and buy some cheapo glove liners (example glove, example liner).
  2. Scarf. Thick scarf preferably.
  3. Balaclava (example here) - optional if your scarf is really good, but recommended.
  4. Overpants (wear underarmour and jeans underneath). First time I went, I went to target and got a pair for about $15. (example here)
  5. Beanie.

    Now my personal two most important, but expensive items:

  6. Socks! Go to rei and get yourself a pair of these ski socks. Nothing is worse than freakishly cold feet, or feet that get destroyed by the crappy rental books. These socks are built to keep your feed warm and padded.
  7. Jacket. Ok...here you can cheat a bit by layering. The 'real deal' would be to get something like this. OR, do what I did (and continue to do): underarmour + long sleeve shirt + sweater + rain jacket. Yeah, you don't have a good seal, and you'll end up getting snow on your clothes and be a bit cold by 2pm, but if you don't have hundreds of dollars for a ski jacket it's a good deal. Note: i've found that cheap ski jackets are garbage, and you will pay the price for them.

    Hope this helps! You can buy pretty much all this except for the jacket for under $100, and maybe even less if you're really thirfty. Helmet, boots, and skis should be taken care of by the rental folks.
u/Azurelos · 5 pointsr/trees

I recommend this. :)

http://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-Scooter-Enduro-Cycling-Fanny/dp/B004ALXPSO/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

It's like a drop leg bag... it's still a fanny.. but cooler. :D

u/SteveSweetz · 4 pointsr/motorcycles

The opening around your neck is usually the most significant source of wind noise in a helmet. If your helmet has a removable chin curtain and you remove it, put it back in. If you don't have a neck curtain, before getting a new helmet you can try a Windjammer.

Modular helmets are often quieter specifically because the neck curtain on most of them can come in closer than helmets you have to pull over your head.

I also might try different ear plugs. The simple foam ones actually have the highest level of projection of anything out there when properly inserted. Custom molded ones aren't necessarily superior.

u/caboteria · 4 pointsr/SVRiders

My riding boots have a plastic pad sewn on the left boot right where the shifter hits so the surface is a little more scratch-resistant.

Otherwise, maybe something like https://www.amazon.com/Shifter-Skinz-Motorcycle-Protectors-Accessories/dp/B001036KGO ?

u/PM_me_your_Jeep · 4 pointsr/motorcycles

u/SurlyJason · 4 pointsr/cruisers

Let's not bring my waist size into this!

I got a strap that goes around the chest and gives the kid some handles on the back.

u/pvera · 4 pointsr/fitbit

What about a mall? What about a mask and some extra layers?

I am
(was? it's been almost gone since I lost so much weight) asthmatic and cold air has always been one of my triggers. When we got hit with the first windchill under freezing I bought us balaclava masks ($15 or so at Amazon, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00S0YA5GM/) and they helped immensely, they keep my head and neck very warm and they breathe really well. Plus they can be worn with or without covering the mouth and nose.

I also started experimenting with the clothing. I got thermal pants, these have been great in sub zero with just a windbreaker pant worn over. For the top I stopped wearing my parka and switched to wearing two pairs of long sleeve stay dry shirts over one short sleeve shirt of the same material. I am now even running wearing these, just this morning I was more concerned about the ice patches than I was about being able to breathe when it was so damn cold.

u/updoted · 3 pointsr/motorcycles

> Details? That's a great idea.

I put these: http://www.amazon.com/Tork-Motorcycle-Helmet-Speakers-Control/dp/B004I6HOQA?ie=UTF8&keywords=helmet%20speakers&psc=1&qid=1465496317&ref_=sr_1_2&sr=8-2-spons

They get rid of the tinny highs, and give better bass (not crazy, but good enough). And pretty clear up to about 60 mph in my Arai.

I just spliced the existing speakers, and soldered in these. You may also be able to use the 1/8" adapter to hook them up, but I haven't had any problems after soldering mine!

u/sns1294 · 3 pointsr/MTB

I wear "sport" style sunglasses that fit close to my face and they seem to work fine, but if this isn't enough then maybe something like this would work.

u/winkers · 3 pointsr/MTB

I have a friend that has a similar problem... and he lives in a desert, so he's doubly screwed.

He uses 2 types of glasses for riding, I think depending on the conditions:

  1. http://www.oakley.com/products/6950/27326 I know he has sometimes puts racing tape (polyurethane tape used to protect carbon frames) over the vent holes sometimes.

  2. http://www.amazon.com/Pairs-Kickback-Padded-Motorcycle-Sunglasses/dp/B003FBV8ZW/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1396380196&sr=1-1 He also uses these sometimes with one of those neoprene straps to keep them on your head. He makes it so that it's a little tight.

    I ride with these when it's windy. http://www.oakley.com/products/7196/27529 If it's not windy then they fog up every time I slow down... so I don't slow down.... kidding, I'm slow as shit.
u/pelicansauce · 3 pointsr/motorcycles

I wear very similar plugs. Never leave home without them.

u/rebeldefector · 3 pointsr/motorcycles

It's the glasses you're wearing... you don't need goggles, but glasses that fit your face properly are a big deal.

They make glasses with foam padding, they might do it for you.

u/eggplantsforall · 3 pointsr/bikecommuting

You can get them for closer to $55 on Amazon

I have always had terrible circulation and my hands are the worst part. I commute year round in Boston, and last winter I splurged on a pair of those and they made all the difference. I wear these gloves and combined with the bar mitts I rode my 40 minute commute at temperatures of 0-5 F without any trouble.

For my feet I have gore-tex shimano mt71 shoes, and for the rest of me I was always pretty comfy in a fleece or jacket and regular pants. But I tend to run hot when I ride, so wearing rain gear even at 5F leaves me soaked with sweat on arrival.

Other important bits are face and eyes. These glasses are both fabulous and cheap and cover all lighting conditions while cutting down on the icy wind in your eyes (the yellow lenses are amazing for flat daytime light). On my face I wear a balaclava.

u/mugenh22a · 3 pointsr/motorcycles

The MotoRadd's chinmount might fit...

u/albagley42 · 3 pointsr/longboarding

Anyone know if the Bell Servo would work as a full face? It's this one

They also sell what appears to be a step up called the Sanction

u/DonOblivious · 3 pointsr/bikecommuting

> Do you by any chance know where I can get to learn how to ride during the winter?

Hub/Cycles for Change usually have a class I think. There have also been seminars at the Winter Bike Expo. A lot of it comes down to clothing selection and regular bike maintenance. We salt our roads heavily and wiping off snow after riding is worth the time spent. I highly, highly recommend using a "wet" lube instead of a "dry" lube on your chain. Avoid Tri-flow, Finish Line Dry/Red, White Lightning, anything "wax." You want something like Rock and Roll Gold, Finish Line Wet/Green, Chain-L... something "wet."


Things I consider must haves (other people may disagree):

  1. A cycling cut windbreaker. You wear this as an outer layer and it amplifies the effectiveness of your insulating layers of shirts. Cycling windbreakers are long in the back and long in the arms to keep you covered when bent over the handlebars, and have vented pits/back to vent moisture.

  2. Balaclava with an open nose vent and perforated mouth area. Something like this instead of this or this. The kind that cover up your nose fog glasses and get snotty. You might not wear glasses but you'll probably want eye protection against the cold.

  3. Wool/Smartwool/Costco smartwool knockoff socks

  4. Something more wind-resistant than jeans

  5. Layers, layers, layers. Tights, compression shirts, longjohns, baselayers, fleeces, "athletic tshirts." That windbreaker I mentioned first means I can get away with wearing something like a compression shirt and a long sleeve wicking tshirt or two and being plenty warm on the bike much of the time.

  6. Eye protection. Ski goggles, lab goggles, motorcycle goggles etc. I'm kinda a wuss about my eyes being cold and need them covered around 20°F/-7C

  7. A pair of studded tires, a bike that can fit at least a 32-35mm tire, a good set of tire levers and a floor pump. Riding on studs sucks when you don't need them and not having studs when you need them sucks. Tire choice is rather personal and too long to get into so here's Peter White's thoughts on studded tires.
u/Laxtorre · 3 pointsr/ElectricSkateboarding

I've been happy with my Fox Titan.

u/FatDrewLo · 3 pointsr/motorcycles
u/hypenexus · 3 pointsr/loseit

A balaclava or something similar makes a big difference for the cold air. You can get half masks too that just cover the neck/mouth/nose if you have a hat you prefer. The thin fabric doesn't make you sweat but it gives just enough protection.

u/DocDaytona · 3 pointsr/CalamariRaceTeam

Well just my 2 cents, I bought the Torx speakers off Amazon, $70. 3M adhesive to stick it inside the helmet, they're super thin and have great bass for such tiny speakers. Then I just taped a cheap waterproof mp3 player to the outside of my helmet. I just switched from earbuds cause they'd always shift and fall out. But hey, whatever floats your goat. I could throw up a picture if you want to see what I'm talking about.

Edit: Here's the speakers, http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004I6HOQA/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1421344123&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SY200_QL40

u/BabySquid650 · 2 pointsr/motorcycles

Ive seen something like that but it had one issue, the straps go where the lid closes so your not able to get a proper seal with that mount. This would be the next best thing as it resolves that issue but it uses a sticky mount- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074W2J774/ref=nav_timeline_asin?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

u/bendvis · 2 pointsr/motorcycles

I've heard some good things about Windjammers or similar helmet skirts. I have yet to try one though. Personally, I get a lot of wind noise from right behind my jaw, so I get the sense that something like this would cut a lot of it out.

u/spiral_arm · 2 pointsr/BurningMan

I'm going to second the red baron motorcycle googles. They're perfect in every way -- simple and lightweight so you don't mind carrying them around (unlike those huge ski goggles), they seal around your eyes and are comfortable (you just need to duct tape over the little vents on either side), and they send you both the clear night and tinted day versions. They do start to deteriorate after a few years, so we tend to re-up every year and now we have a fairly large collection in our container in varying stages of decay but all still usable enough that we can pass them around to folks in need. I also take some more fashion-conscious goggles, but the red barons are what I'm actually wearing 90% of the time.

And sure, some people may not need goggles.. but don't take that chance if it's your first time. I wear contacts and I absolutely 100% require goggles out there. I've only ever left camp without a set once. Never again.

u/Danielr2010 · 2 pointsr/IndianMotorcycle

Great choice! I have a RF-1200. Moto Rad chin mount works great with a gopro. I've heard great things about the Sena camera/speaker set up too.

u/berryperson · 2 pointsr/tinnitus

These are the ones I have. I like the foam eat tips the best, and they are pretty discrete. If you want them to be more discrete you can take off the plastic pull tab. And it has an additional cord to attach if you want to keep them together.

u/beansjawns · 2 pointsr/philadelphia

I ride year round unless there is heavy rain, ice, or snow. When it's cold, one of these face masks is great. You can grab that and some other gear at I. Goldberg at 7th & Chestnut. I also have a pair of cheap motorcycle glasses that I got on Amazon to keep the wind out of my eyes.

u/ViperThreat · 2 pointsr/motorcycles

Unfortunately I have to remove this, but since I was in a similar position earlier this year with my RPHA-11, Ill give you the answer:

It's a bit pricey, and it's not the prettiest thing in the world, but it's probably the most solid mount you can buy for a chin setup.

Fox Racing Titan Sport DH 'jacket'. About $150 in the US. I've replaced it a couple times over the years. I can't begin to describe how much skin they have saved me and how much pain was avoided.

It's hot compared to just a jersey, but the level of protection is pretty awesome. I never notice while riding otherwise. Quite comfortable actually.

I took a pretty hard slam on my left side on Saturday. Got a huge gouge in the left forearm plastic cup from a rock. Could have easily been my arm and a trip to the hospital. Bruised up, but I finished Saturday and did a full day yesterday.

I also wear it snowboarding if conditions are icy.

A balaclava can (to some degree) protect you if you have to use someone else's helmet.

There's a cheap one on Amazon that I use for riding in cool weather. Fogs up the visor like nothing else every time I breathe during a rain, but that can be dealt with.

u/Honda_TypeR · 2 pointsr/gaming

I bought that thing too back in the day too. It always looked cool, but I never really put it on display (I was in my 20's when that game came out and putting out things like model figurines or game stuff like that on display would have been too nerdy and kiddish for the girls I brought over). Instantly fucks up your game and makes girls think less of you.

Now a days it just doesn't fit the decor. Thing is still cool though. Always regretted never putting that thing out the entire time I had it. It just sits in the box.

On a side note you know they made a full blown wearable motorcycle helmet of the spartan helmet?

u/LadyRevoS117 · 2 pointsr/starcraft

I bought a lot of the parts and pieces on Amazon (bodysuit, gloves, LED's, and goggles)
As for the actual armor pieces, they're craft foam. All the joints between the craft foam pieces are held together by cheesecloth and glue on the back (this tutorial pretty much helped me figure out how to shape the craft foam and put it together). Then they're paper mached to cover up the seams on the front. Then lots and LOTS of spray paint, followed by acrylic paint applied then wiped off to create the aged/battered effect. Then wired (9 volt batteries hidden throughout the costume) with LED's and resistors as required. Then the "glass" over the LED's was made from cut-up sandwich bags and white glass frosting spray.

u/SpinkickFolly · 2 pointsr/motorcycles

Nah, wear this balaclave combine with this neck gaiter and your head should be fine from the cold.

The dangesr of wind noise are known. Personally I wear earplugs.

I had XSound J Helmet Speakers (IAXSJ)
The plug did not hold up very well and they have failed.

Just ordered these to give a try.

with earplugs in it is enough to kill the wind noise and actually let me hear the speakers. Also it would be hard to get the tunes so loud as to be a distraction.

Multi use Bandana/Balaclava thing. I like the solid colors but they come in a bunch of patterns. Keeps the dust out better than a banana and is easier to use. Warm when it gets cold. Get it wet if it's really hot out.

Padded Sunglasses. They're cheap, awesome at keeping the dust out and look pretty normal when you have them on. Search for "padded sunglasses" or "motorcycle sunglasses" to check out different styles.

Pro Tip: get the black banana and the all black sunglasses to look like a bandit for the weekend.

u/davidrools · 1 pointr/motorcycles

I've had similar problems. Here's how I do it:

  • When you put on your balaclava, check yourself in your side mirror. It will show you that it's a bit off center, even though it seemed fine.
  • Get your balaclava on tight. Pull it all the way down so there's nothing left for the helmet to pull. Pull it down in the back to keep too much material above your eyes. It should be nice and smooth - no crumples for the helmet to snag on.
  • Then put on your neck warmer. I use this one. This cheaper one also looks good.
  • When you put on your helmet, roll it onto your head. Start by looking into it, like you're putting it on your face rather than your head. And roll it into position - even overshoot so the chin portion thing ends up too high, then bring it down into position.
  • Ride to work, take off your helmet, and walk around the rest of the day with the most absurd looking hair.

    Then you should be good to go. I use a cheap flimsy t-shirt headsock I got free from the go-kart track on mild days, and I use this balaclava when it's super cold

    Good luck!

When I want to ride without using them I tuck the plug into the foam of the helmet and you wouldn't even know they're in there.

I mostly manage with sunglasses but for those dust storms I love this style. They aren't 100% dust free since they gave tiny side air holes but that also means they don't fog up or get overly sweaty.

I'm guess you meant cold weather? I do a shoulder rig for cold weather so it can stay under my waterproof jacket ... primarily because it rains continuously in the pacific northwest. If its not raining too much I just leave enough of the jacket unzipped i can reach right in.

I've done everything from zipping it in my cargo shorts pocket (uhh, no round chambered for that), to fanny packs like yours, to this holster like hip/leg bag
http://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-Scooter-Enduro-Cycling-Fanny/dp/tags-on-product/B004ALXPSO

I don't have the right answer. Its a function of comfort and practice. You aren't going to win any quick draw competitions however you cut it. Be aware in sketchy areas so you aren't too surprised. Stop and dismount before drawing. Put your bike between you and an attacker, backing up to create space, if you can, while you draw.

I've drawn two times while riding.
One a kid (like 16) was on the ground getting kicked by three other boys while another boy held his girlfriend by the hair. I watched at least the three cyclists in front of me ignore it and keep going down the path. I alerted the police as i was getting my gun (I think i only owned a G17 at this point - a very functional and intimidating gun, but a pain in the ass to carry), put them on speaker and my phone in my breast pocket and started yelling at the kids to put their hands up and back away. The four little shits all ran away, but the boy on the ground and his girlfriend were ok. I was glad I did it because it was a while before the police showed up (felt like forever with adrenaline).

The second time i saw a guy was walking down the walking / biking path with a baseball bat sized piece of pipe (we were heading towards each other). I stopped (not wanted to be caught while moving) and moved my gun (subcompact with a thumb safety - i love it) to my jacked pocket and took off the safety (kept it out of his line of sight as much as possible). He kept walking by talking to himself and I called 911 to report sketchy activity.

Something like that I assume? Quite honestly, I don't see the point. If he has proper motorcycling boots, it won't be an issue. Hell, my boots are white leather and they still look fine after 3 years. If he isn't wearing proper boots, maybe lead him that direction instead, because it'll look way better and be safer too.

you should consider these. Never cheap out on eye protection. you and I both have glasses so I know how hard it is to play with fog, but trust me. Even other goggles with good ventilation and fans or a combination of both are a really good investment. Also, most fields have a ban on mesh eye protection so The mask limits your choice of fields.

These are $5 more than the standard fit ones, but worth it as you can try out three interchangeable ear pieces for the right fit. I had the same brand for a while, but upgraded to these because whatever, $25 is worth it. Also you don't get a bunch of bass muffle like the standard foam cheap ones. Strongly recommend from experience. Funny thing is that I had planned on going to IMAX for the movie and decided on bringing those now just in case based off of your comment. Thanks!

u/LonelyRobots · 1 pointr/motorcycles

For winter I just use my normal gear with a ski coat that's slightly to large to fit over my moto jacket, ski pants to keep the wind off my legs, knee high thick socks because some air does go up the pant leg. Winter motorcycle gloves.

So basically I just wear what I would if I went skiing over my normal summer motorcycle gear. Oh and this IS A MUST: Balaclava

u/wascurious · 1 pointr/BurningMan

As far as proper dust mask, I bought this at amazon, is it adaquate?

u/dmukya · 1 pointr/motorcycles

Proper fit would be the most important thing to focus on. Get a Snell/ECE Full face (or modular) to minimize noise and maximize protection.

I would be worried about long term hearing damage from the extended exposure to wind noise. I never ride without earplugs, either some custom fit plugs I got at a gun show, or from a [box of disposeables](https://www.amazon.com/Howard-Leight-Honeywell-Disposable-MAX-1/dp/B0013A0C0Y/ "A box will last you for years"). You may also want to look into a Windjammer to further reduce wind noise.

To help with visual acuity, consider getting multiple visors and a helmet where changing visors is easy. It's simple enough to try visor removal and replacement in-store to weed out the bad ones. Think dark smoke when it's sunny, yellow for glare, and pinlock-equipped for when it's foggy. You don't really want to mess with goggles for the highway.

I'd stay away from brimmed dual-sport style helmets, the brim can act as a sail and cause discomfort at high speeds.

Consider adding a Bluetooth intercom system if you want to listen to podcasts, navigation prompts, or other entertainment during your long trips. Higher end helmets can be fit with nice, integrated systems.

For color choice, statistically, wearing a white or hi-vis colored helmet will tend to reduce SMIDSYs.

I knew I couldn't be alone in my neuroses about shifter marks on my boot (what I like to call "shift toe"). Every now and then when I think about getting new boots I try and see if anyone has had any experience with how it holds up to a motorcycle toe shifter, but I never see anyone make mention of it.

Your post reminded me about it, and finally got me to do a search. Turns out they make toe shifter guards, like this one. I also see through Google image search that there seem to be more robust ones, including ones made out of leather. Of course, I don't know if that would help with any dent it makes in your boot. I mean, like others have said, you could take pride in the wear/tear on your boot. But, I know for me, it's the asymmetrical nature of the "wear" that would bother me.

Fog and bugs are a huge problem here I got some motorcycle glasses super cheap on Amazon and they work great.
They don't fog up much at all because there's rubber around where your eyes go so the heat from your face doesn't really get on the glasses.
There's clear, yellow and the sunglass type for when it's sunny I usually just carry the clear and the dark sunglasses in my extra pocket so I can switch if I'm riding at dawn and then it gets sunny.

I would have to agree. My daughter started riding with me when she was 5. The helmet to helmet comm made a world of difference. I can talk to her to let her know when we are going to go faster, turn, etc. Makes her much more aware of whats going on and doesn't rely on hand signals.
