A personal example of how full gear can save your ass!

Ranger, impacting anything at the speed I was going is gonna suck. But the collateral damage to me is minimal. The suits work best...if you don't slide into anything, lol. If I had just slid on the pavement and came to a stop, I woulda been able to walk away instead of crutching away in a lot of pain.

Chopper, my forks slide into the triple trees, there's no need to losen up the steering head nut.
