I know that it doesn't get that hot here, 30 deg C sort of,
but I have taken a tumble a couple of times, luckily never with my Savage!
Being an hourly paid prostitute, I can't/won't afford to be off for a couple of weeks curing road rash or worse,
so I always wear my Cordura jacket and trousers from Bullson.
This also has the advantage that, if it starts to rain, I don't need to stop and change.
I've heard that wearing jeans material is worse than being naked, because it burns into the skin!!!
I vary the internal temperature with different linings and leaving the zip(s) part open.
Helmet anyway, since I saw my brother in hospital at 19 and how he was still suffering from it at 58.
He was on the back seat of a sidecar combi and it wasn't their fault.
They were just invisible for a truck!!

KTRSD and your skin on
