I think I'll keep my riding apparel indoors, where it won't be contaminated with tire and/or gasoline odors.

That guys setup is sweet...Short of setting your shit in a bucket of gas when your not wearing it I really dont think it matters if its hanging in a garage or in a closet in your house...

And I Dunno about you...but My jacket smells like exhaust from my bike/other bikes/cars.

You do realize when you ride a motorcycle, your open to the elements right? Shit i have bug guts all over my jacket at times...Turns on the ladies

I'm definitely not stereotypical when it comes to bikes or cars. You may see me on a sportbike or a Harley or something else in between. When it comes to cars it could be a pushrod V8 like my Vette or an old muscle car or a 4 cylinder turbo...import or domestic...I have many likes and interest.

That's why I find it so funny when on my R1 and V-Twin guys want to turn their nose up and then I can be on a V-Twin and sportbikes guys turn their nose up. I'm the same mofo regardless motherfvcker !!

Certainly it's an advert but it makes you think.

What's in your garage?

Do you fit the stereotype?

I know I own all HDs, I fit some of the stereo types but destroy many others.

Translation of blog post

Dear customers, yall know we been working on yer lifestyle vehicles for over 30 years. We've done our best to make sure you hogs run right and even you queers with yer wanna be, American job killin Japapanese Harley copies have been welcome into our little home for years.

Well..after looking at our numbers and looking over the market we decided that the crotch rocket (them "PING KOW POW CHO WOW FOO" manufacturers) and socialist yuppie fag market (land of the surrender monkeys, tea sippers and those fellas that gave us our awesome pointy helmets) is too hard to ignore.

Therefore, we ask you to spread the word. when you come across a rider of one of those "other bikes", let them know about us.

Right after you inform them that they should have gotten a real motorcycle, let them know of a great place to come do business with.
Us.

We got some new, younger guys here who ride some of them jap bikes. Use em for drag racing and they get some good quarter mile times once you squeeze the 300 tire (which as you know is a hot seller) on a new longer swingarm. Our techs have lets us know oil changes are pretty straighforward on em and with the internet now we can order any of them parts from ronayers or something and toss em on.

In summary...when you bump into another rider on either a queer ship or crotch rocket, say somethin about us and bite your tongue.

Its tough times and we have mouths to feed.

And an Aerostich suit (when he could have bought a Fieldsheer for 1/3 the cost)

Solid-colored helmet too (multi-colored helmets are immature in his opinion)

Dude, you are not riding inches away from cars' exhaust.....Unless you're in rush hour all the time. My jacket smells like sweat more than anything else....

And if you put your jacket in a closet with a new tire or bottles of chemicals in it......Shit will stink like a mofo after a few days. Leather is porous, so it absorbs odors pretty good. Hell I keep a box of Bounce on the floor of my closet, and it keeps my jacket smelling fresh, lol.

Like as if the dude doesn't have room inside his house for his gear. Hell if I pay hundreds of dollars for something, I'm not leaving it somewhere where it's going to be exposed to temperature extremes, high humidity, insects, & dust.
