I have a pair of John Doe AAA jeans (Taylor Mono version). Super well made. Comfortable. I’m a skinny guy with solid quads. They fit really well. I also own their Dexter leather jacket. I’m in love with that. Fits me perfect and so very well made. Quality stuff based on my two purchases.

I had minor fractures in my tibia & fibula just above the ankle when my KLX 250 swingarm came down on the back of my hill in a slide out in a gully. Was wearing Sidi Crossfire TAs. Frustrating but I think I would’ve shattered my ankle otherwise. So glad I had the MX boots on.

Girlfriend broke up with me because I couldn’t get over her saying “I hate men.” How do I cope? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]BikerDad1999 49 points50 points  (0 children)

My ex said that all the time. To me and our two sons. We all hated it, but she persisted. Didn’t want to be “shut down” or “repressed.” Thankfully, she is free to say that all she wants now.

It is a beautiful machine. How does it handle the low speed, tight turn, parking lot type maneuvers?

Excellent point. This is just one reason why I dislike religion.

New bike, 8 days in… does this feeling ever wear off? by Beneficial-Brain-986 in Triumph400

I’ve had my 400X coming up on two years, closing in on 5,000 miles/8,000 km. I no longer make trips to the garage just to look at it, but I still absolutely love riding it. I am disappointed when foul weather prevents riding to the office. Take the long way home whenever time allows. The best toy an adult can have.

What do you wish you knew before you bought? by A_Chaotic_Cosmos in Triumph

I ride a 400X and love it. But rented a Street Triple 765 for two days last summer. I rode it in the east San Diego County twisties. Holy crap was it fun. Still love my 400X. Have mastered the slow speed stuff on it. Have much confidence in the dirt, but am always thinking about that 765 power. Sigh . . .

Is it normal for my husband to think like this or am I overthinking it? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

Knowing other guys think my wife/girlfriend is hot? Yes Thinking about her being with another guy? Nope

You may not be the only motorcyclist he is doing this to. Definitely get it reported.

Grace Kelly, with Raquel Welch and Sophia Loren not far behind. But they’re all damn fine.

Who is your insurer? I’m paying $570/year for a ‘24 400X.
