#best motorcycle helmet for daily use

[selnyam]

FFXIV Write 2024: Horizon

The late afternoon sun beat down over the Silver Bazaar.  The residents busied about, chatting and doing their daily chores.  A faint growing rumble caused heads to turn, as a ceruleum engine motorcycle pulled into the area.  Sitting atop the bike was a muscular pink haired Viera.  The woman waved, shaking her head and reaching up to adjust the long floppy ears on her head as she freed them from a helmet.  Kikipu, a Lalafell women with Purple hair beamed and called out.

“Well look who it is!  Flidais!  It’s been sometime!  How are you doing, gorgeous?”  The Lala set down the basket she was carrying and walked over.  The tall Viera waved, then shifted the large axe on her back.  Gently she placed it next to the parked bike, then knelt down to hug her friend tightly

“OOF!  I swear, you get stronger every time you stop by.  Keep it up and ye’ll crush me!”  Kikipu covered her mouth as she laughed aloud.  Flidais Oakclamber simply smiled and tapped her fist over her chest three times.  She stood, and reached into the pack of her motorcycle producing a wrapped bundle.  With a wink and sly tilt of her head she handed the package over.  Once freed her hands moved to speak in sign language, the primary way the Viera spoke since losing her voice to a Garlean blade.

[Dark Pretzels for everyone!  I’ll be in my spot.  Lovely to see you]  The Lalafell woman gasped and slapped Flidais on her thigh.

“It’s been far too long!  Everyone will love to have some of your special Dark Pretzels again luv.  I’ll keep everyone busy and occupied for a couple o’ bells,  go get your alone time beautiful.  Just make sure to come tell us all of your travels later!”  Opening the package and pulling one of the baked treats from within, Kikipu took a big bite and wandered off to distribute to the citizens of the Bazaar.  Grinning from ear to ear, Flidais walked past the bazaar.  Waving nodding back to any who greeted her, the Viera woman made her way to the cliff edge and with a sigh she sat down.

So much was happening, and so often.  She just needed a moment to sit and rest.  To think about everything.   Her gaze carried out over the water, to the distant islands, to the Castrum to the far right.   How had it only been a few years since she’d joined the team storming that Castrum?  To when she’d avenged her first love, the first time her Voidtouched traits had manifested?  Her wings and horns bursting forth as she’d fought, throwing spell after spell to stop sas Junius.  Her actions and rage had led to rumors and horror stories about a primal or demon the Grand Companies had summoned to stop the Garleans.  A being of Chaos with giant wings and claws.  She sighed and turned her gaze back to the bazaar.

Three Summers, Nearly 4 had occurred since she first woke up just north of here.  Where she opened her eyes in the dirt, in tattered robes.  Lost and with no memories she’d sat there until a passing merchant had called out to her.  He’d made sure she was okay then offered to take her to Ul’dah.  She’d agreed of course.  A city was the best place to find people, to learn who she was.  It was there she’d joined the Adventurer’s Guild, and trained as a Thaumaterge.  The beginning of her entire life.  

The Viera let her eyes continue to follow the horizon line.  For only being around for the time she had, she felt like she’d lived a lifetime accommodating her century and a half of age.  If only she had the memories of most of that time.  Her mind wandered from the stressful times to the joy, as it often did.  To her wife, her partners.  Thoughts of the Scions and her found family.  All her loved ones and friends and comrades she’d met.  A tear ran down her cheek, one of happiness and a satisfied life.  Her short fuzzy tail wiggled in joy, and she pulled a violin from her neary pack.  With a deep breath, she began to play.

The residents of the bazaar smiled, and some began to hum or sing along.  This was an uncommon occurrence, but one they looked forward too.  Flidais would come, bring them food and stories of her adventures, or sit by the cliff and play.  She was a quiet woman, but the kind you couldn’t help but to smile around.  Her grin and positive attitude were infectious.  Kikipu wondered what new places the Veira had seen,  What new horizons and sights she could tell them about.  It was shaping up to be a fine evening indeed.

Y’all wanted it and I love you xoxo (Photo @/happy_muz)

Ghost x You 18+

IMPORTANT I MOVED ACCOUNTS FOLLOW @konigschitzo2 FOR MORE POSTS AND UPDATES!!!

First things first Ghost rides a Yamaha R1, I literally didn't even have to think about it...

⋆⋅☆⋅⋆

Due to Ghost's large and extremely muscular body, he is an extremely precise rider always being able to maintain control. Easily swerving away from obstacles; even as he pushes the speeds of his powerful bike past the 150 mark. He would never be so reckless with you on the back but it's comforting to know he can hold his own even at such high speeds.

Ghost rides daily...

Ghost always gives you a long intimate kiss before riding. He puts his hand on your cheek to hold you closer. He does worry about it being your last, but he still craves the high speeds of a motorcycle.

Ghost may wear minimal gear himself. Often just his gloves and helmet. But Ghost makes you wear all the best. "We need to protect that beautiful body baby, I am going to need it." He teases. You roll your eyes, looking at his exposed arms.

Motorcycle Ghosts arms are tatted obviously!!

Ghost lifts you onto his bike. He is gentle with you as his large hands grab your waist and lift you with ease.

Ghost tells you, "It is okay to put your weight on me, I want you to hold onto me. I want you to feel safe." before riding. He's big enough that leaning onto him never affected his braking, he wanted you to hold him anyway. Gripping tightly to his waist when the high-speed turns made you nervous.

Ghost is a serious rider. You know you shouldn't but you grab his bulge often when backpacking him. He feels it, the adrenaline is pumping. But he still keeps complete composure. Sometimes you can even feel him getting harder, all he can do is shift into a higher gear and face ahead. He is using speed to hide the fact he wants to pull over and fuck you onto his bike.

Ghost wants to fuck you on his R1. He thinks about it every day while he shines it and checks the chain. He believes it will show his love for you if he dirties the bike he keeps so flawless. He is too nervous to tell you this fantasy of his.

Ghost never waves or accepts compliments from other girls while with his bike alone. Pretending not to see them. Wishing you were with him instead. He doesn't want you to get your own bike only to always be on his.

Car and Motorcycle Spells and Superstitions

Vroom Vroom, if you know or dont know hello! I am a motorcycle driver (2022 Venom x18R) and my loving husband is currently in school for automotive mechanics, loves tinkering on his car (2001 BMW-Z3), and overall we make a great team!

Today, both Mr. Iris and I wanted to share spells and superstitions we use to not only keep our things running but also protected

Motorcycles:

We believe in the use of a guardian bell, the superstition goes that there are ghosts and evil spirits that get into our bikes and ruin them, a guardian bell wards off from crashes, break downs, and other damage that is caused by these spirits. The bells trap them inside and the ringing drives them mad so they fall off and wander around aimlessly

Some chapters and churches (especially in the south) host a 'blessing of the bikes' ceremony before the first events of the year, its a non-denominational blessing where people of all sorts get together and bless their bikes for safety

Riding with your gear pegs down can be an invitation for spirits to hop on the back of your bike, if you are in a funeral motorcade its an invitation for the deceased to enjoy a last ride, but I dont reccomened keeping them up on your daily ride

In world war 2 messangers would ride green bikes which made them targets, and after the war there were so many of these green bikes that people would buy and then break down it became bad luck to ride a green bike

Never ride a dead mans bike, its said that their spirit will come down and knock you on your ass

Its bad luck to drop a helmet with the common saying “As goes your helmet, so goes your head.”, but its also a safety thing. Helmets shouldnt be dropped because of the compression and foam inside of them which lessens their ability to protect you in a crash

ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET.

Always stop to help fellow bikers, you dont know when you will need it

Iris's Motorcycle Ward:

First, bless your bike in as many ways as you want, then create a sigil of luck using the number wheel system, instead of drawing that sigil and place it on your bike take those numbers (i.e "protect this bike" becomes 12478) and either draw them in bike cleaner OR get decals to hide around

Cars:

You might notice how nascar drivers have their own good luck charm, whether its a photo of their partner, a lucky coin, or a blue sock, we can replicate supersitions of our favorite driver (congrats to Landon Cassill)

If a bird poops on your car its a sign that you may recieve good news or riches

Holding your breath under a tunnel or by a cemetery was started because people believe that restless spirits might come out and enter your body, or mess up your car.

Some people say to ward your car from future accidents, its best to scratch or dent it when you first get it because it keeps accidents away

do a ritual (kiss your mirror, slap your visor) when you pass a yellow light because it wards away cops

Pick up your feet when you pass over a bridge or railroad, its said that if you dont you wont find your future spouse because you "already crossed the threshold"

You may hear "a bmw is the most expensive car youll own" or "Id rather push a chevy then drive a ford" when you observe these phrases take note of your own car, and find good luck phrases to support your car

Avoid places with a lot of accidents, not only is it good luck, but there may be a lot of accidents for a reason like blind turns or strange speed limits

Mr. Iris's green light spell:

On all of our vehicles we put a spell on the cars computer (CAN and ECU's), we enchanted our car or bikes by holding the dash, then chanting or visualizing our energy connecting to the CAN, we ask that the computers energy predict green lights and take the energy of our car to prevent red lights. We have had a very good success rate! Other spells we love:

Another one we do is an 'anti-cop' spell, on a bike sometimes we get ahead of ourselves and feel like the speed limit is a suggestion, so to protect us we not only keep a sigil patch on the inside of our helmets and we also keep a blue fuse in our pockets as a ward from getting caught

When Mr. Iris has a race or car show he uses a significant date to help win (Go 917), plus he also creates a chant to "hype up the cars engine" there are ofc other superstitions like these so really pick what you like!

Thank you all! I hope you enjoy!

How to drive a beast

Motorcycling novel

Words: 510

Warnings: None

Writer's note: Got inspired by "Hitting the Apex"

It all starts with a team boss, your best friend in and out of the circuit. You start with him at the the smallest track of minimotos in the country, and from one day to the next, you are competing in the fastest circuit on the championship.

From a young age they explain the first rule to adhere to, don't fall, stay on the bike. You burn it into your head, but you fall, over and over again, but you get up, always you have to get up, a great driver would.

It's cool getting your personalized helmet, and see the bodywork of your first minibike, but feels different when you put on your suit, and see the world through a visor. You wake up from the dream you had as a child, because it is already a reality, and all you have to do is be the best.

It will sound easy, "Start in a good age, train daily, and reach the premier class, manage to stand out among the 20 best riders in the world and win." I wish it was that easy.

Dad told me don't freak out when I fall, get off the track quickly, see if the bike is okay, and get out of there. Even the best in the world falls and has had its silly failures, but not now.

You have to be lucky, not injure yourself when you fall, recover mentally from a mistake, and stay on top from a very young age.

What a world the things I heard. I used to have a rival, he was much faster than me, They signed him for the European category... He failed. You cannot ask a child out of the blue to be the best in his country, let alone in his continent. But that's how motorcycling works, you adapt quickly or you leave, here the excuse of the team is not valid, it is all about the pilot, how he handles the motorcycle... Being one with the bike.

Without a doubt, the competition is very wide and tough, you have to give the 100% of yourself at all times, if you don't, you fail, it's that easy.

Of course we use electronic aids, otherwise we could not drive such beasts, but... What happens when you put someone young with 19 drivers, to drive a motorcycle that reaches more than 300 kilometers/hour? He falls... A lot, especially in his rookie year, and you have to be lucky for a second chance to shine again, you know, it's easy... Isn't it?

6 red lights, react instantly, accelerate slowly on the line, brake, lean, hit the apex, pick up, accelerate, leaning fairing, brake, knee up and lean, short, dead speed, get up and speed up... Stay on the bike... Stay... On... The bike.

A fall hurts, destroy your motorcycle, and destroy you inside... Broken bones, dislocated joints, lifelong injuries... But that doesn't happen if you're a smart rider, and you adhere to the first rule of motorcycling. Do not fall.

Secure Tank Bags for Travel and Best Motorcycle Accessories

When it comes to motorcycle travel, one of the most critical aspects is ensuring your belongings are secure and easily accessible. Tank bags have emerged as a popular solution for riders seeking both convenience and safety. These bags attach securely to the motorcycle's tank, Best Motorcycle Accessories providing a handy storage option without compromising the bike's balance or the rider's comfort.

Tank bags come in various sizes and designs, catering to different needs and preferences. Some are equipped with clear map holders, which are incredibly useful for long journeys where frequent navigation is required. Additionally, many modern tank bags feature waterproof materials and zippers, ensuring that your belongings remain dry even in adverse weather conditions. Midway through your journey, having a secure tank bag for travel can make a significant difference in how smoothly your trip goes, allowing you to focus more on the ride and less on the logistics of carrying your essentials.

Aside from secure tank bags, there are numerous motorcycle accessories that can enhance your riding experience. High-quality helmets, for instance, are a non-negotiable item for any rider. They not only provide crucial protection but also come with features such as advanced ventilation systems, anti-fog visors, and Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free communication and navigation.

Another essential accessory is the motorcycle jacket. These jackets are designed to offer maximum protection while ensuring comfort. Made from durable materials like leather or advanced synthetics, they include armor at critical points such as the elbows, shoulders, and back. Reflective elements on these jackets also improve visibility during night rides, adding an extra layer of safety.

For those who enjoy long-distance rides, investing in a good pair of motorcycle gloves is vital. Gloves not only protect your hands from the elements but also provide a better grip on the handlebars, reducing fatigue during extended rides. Look for gloves that offer a balance of protection, comfort, and breathability.

Motorcycle luggage systems, such as panniers and tail bags, are also incredibly useful. These accessories allow you to carry more gear without sacrificing stability or handling. Like secure tank bags for travel, these systems are designed to be aerodynamic and robust, ensuring that your belongings are safe and your ride remains smooth.

Lastly, don't overlook the importance of maintenance tools and emergency kits. Carrying a basic toolkit, tire repair kit, and first aid supplies can be a lifesaver in case of unexpected breakdowns or minor accidents. These accessories ensure that you are prepared for any situation, keeping your ride enjoyable and stress-free.

In conclusion, investing in secure tank bags for travel and other essential motorcycle accessories can significantly enhance your riding experience. Whether you are a daily commuter or an adventure enthusiast, these accessories provide the convenience, safety, and peace of mind needed for an enjoyable journey.

Exploring Bali on Two Wheels – The Benefits of Renting Custom Motorcycles Bali

Bali is an island paradise known for its breathtaking scenery, rich culture, friendly locals, and amazing food. While there are many ways to get around, renting a Custom Motorcycles Bali offers an unparalleled experience as you cruise past lush rice terraces, volcanic lakes, and pristine beaches.

The Thrill of the Ride

Riding a motorcycle takes exploring Bali to another level. Feel the wind in your hair as you rev up that engine and accelerate along curvy Balinese roads. The ability to go wherever you want lets you discover hidden gems most tourists never get to see. Stop on a whim to take photos or chat with villagers. The freedom is exhilarating!

Immerse Yourself in the Culture

Locals primarily use motorbikes to get around Bali. By renting your own set of wheels, you'll blend right in and get a taste of what daily life is like. As you confidently navigate narrow streets, you'll pick up on the rhythms that pulse through tiny villages. Watch cultural traditions unfold

before your eyes when you stumble upon temple ceremonies and daily offerings placed around homes or businesses.

Bonder With Your Travel Companions

Sharing motorcycle adventures creates memories that will last a lifetime. You'll have inside jokes about near-death experiences on the road and can challenge each other to weird food dares when stopping for lunch. Don't forget the selfies! Capturing your crew's shenanigans against epic backdrops is a must.

Where to Rent

Motorcycles Rental Balioffers an awesome selection of well-maintained bikes for rent, from classic Vespas to heavy-duty Harleys. Their passionate team handles all the paperwork so you can just show up, choose your ride, and take off hassle-free.

Types of Motorcycles

As a tropical island, Bali provides ideal conditions for motorcycle touring. Still, specific bikes work better depending on factors like your destinations, technical riding skills, number of passengers, and more.

Scooters - Best for novice riders and solo travelers, scooters have smaller engines (100-150cc). They're extremely portable for getting around cities and beaches but lack power for Bali's interior hills.

Custom Choppers - For intermediate or advanced riders touring Bali's rugged interior, bigger custom cruisers with 250-500cc engines handle uneven terrain better. Malamadre's custom choppers also score major style points!

Sidecars - Add a sidecar to transport photoshoot gear, surfboards, or an additional passenger in comfort. Sidecars expand touring possibilities to accommodate groups with mixed riding abilities.

Safety Tips

While motorbikes unlock awesome experiences, they do come with real risks. Protect yourself by wearing a helmet, packing proper riding shoes, understanding road rules in advance, and never drinking alcohol before riding. Also, confirm your travel insurance covers motorcycle accidents abroad.

Most importantly, choose a reputable rental company like Malamadre Motorcycles Bali known for premium quality bikes that handle well. Well-maintained machinery drastically reduces the chances of breakdowns or other mechanical issues. You can also get it checked from Motorcycles Garage Bali.

The Open Road Awaits

Hard Hats and Helmets: Protecting Your Head

In many workplaces and recreational activities, protecting your head is of paramount importance. Head injuries can have severe and lasting consequences, making the use of appropriate headgear essential. Whether you’re at a construction site, on a bike, or engaged in any activity where your head could be at risk, hard hats and helmets can be your best friend. In this blog, we’ll explore the significance of these protective headgear and the differences between hard hats and helmets.

The Importance of Head Protection

Head injuries can be life-altering and even fatal. In workplaces like construction sites, manufacturing plants, and warehouses, there’s a high risk of head injuries due to falling objects, impacts, and other hazards. In recreational activities such as cycling, motorcycling, and skateboarding, accidents can result in head injuries if you’re not adequately protected.

Here are some key reasons why head protection is crucial:

Preventing Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs): TBIs can result from blunt force trauma to the head. Even a minor injury can have long-term consequences, affecting cognitive functions, memory, and emotional well-being.

Protecting Against Falling Objects: In many industrial settings, tools, equipment, and materials are in use overhead. A hard hat can shield your head from objects that might fall accidentally.

Minimizing the Impact of Accidents: In recreational activities like cycling or skiing, helmets can help absorb and disperse the force of an impact, reducing the severity of injuries in case of falls or collisions.

Now that we understand why head protection is crucial, let’s explore the differences between hard hats and helmets.

Hard Hats: The Shield of the Construction Worker

Hard hats are a common sight in construction sites, where workers face a daily risk of falling debris, tools, or even slips and falls. They are designed to protect against impacts to the top of the head and are typically made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or another tough plastic material.

Here are some key features of hard hats:

Suspension System: Hard hats have an interior suspension system that provides a cushioning layer between the hat and the head. This suspension system helps absorb and disperse the force of an impact helmets.

Rigid Shell: The outer shell of a hard hat is designed to be rigid to deflect and distribute impact forces.

Variety of Styles: Hard hats come in various styles and types, including cap style and full brim. Some have additional features like sweatbands and chin straps for better fit and comfort.

Customization: Hard hats can be customized with company logos or additional safety features like reflective tape for visibility.

Helmets: Safeguarding Sports Enthusiasts

Helmets are commonly associated with recreational and sporting activities. They come in various forms, including bicycle helmets, motorcycle helmets, and ski helmets. Unlike hard hats, which are primarily designed to protect against falling objects, helmets are created to safeguard against impacts from various angles and directions.

Here’s what you should know about helmets:

Impact Absorption: Helmets are designed to absorb and spread the force of an impact, helping to protect the head from a wider range of threats,plastic face shield including lateral and rotational forces.

Ventilation: Many helmets feature ventilation systems to keep the head cool during physical activity.

Safety Standards: Different sports and activities have their specific safety standards for helmets. Always ensure that your helmet complies with the relevant safety regulations.

Visors and Shields: Some helmets come with integrated visors or face shields, providing additional protection for the face and eyes.

Choosing the Right Headgear

When it comes to choosing the right headgear, it’s essential to consider your specific needs and the environment in which you’ll be using it. Here are some tips for selecting the appropriate head protection:

Understand Your Environment: If you work in an industrial setting with falling objects, a hard hat is the obvious choice. For activities like cycling or skiing, opt for the relevant helmet designed for that sport.

Proper Fit: Regardless of the headgear, it’s crucial that it fits comfortably and securely. A poorly fitting helmet or hard hat can be ineffective and uncomfortable.

Check for Certification: Ensure that the headgear you choose meets relevant safety standards. Look for certifications such as ANSI (American National Standards Institute) for hard hats or CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) for bike helmets, safety helmets.

Inspect Regularly: Regularly inspect your headgear for signs of wear and tear. Replace it if you notice any damage, as compromised headgear can’t provide adequate protection.

In Conclusion

Whether you’re navigating a construction site or hitting the slopes for a day of skiing, head protection is non-negotiable. Hard hats and helmets play a vital role in safeguarding your head from traumatic injuries and accidents. Choosing the right headgear depends on your specific needs and activities, so always do your research and invest in quality head protection. Remember, your safety is worth it.

How to Choose Action Camera

What is an action camera? A sports camera is also called a wearable camera or sports camera, which refers to a small camera that can shoot while exercising or driving, and can be installed on a vehicle or worn on the body. Action cameras need to be highly waterproof and durable due to intense sports, high-speed sports or underwater shooting. How to choose action camera depends on different characteristics according to different shooting requirements.

Sports camera selection strategy 1). Select the image quality, frame rate and viewing angle according to the needs Before choosing an action camera, determine the most used scenes and the subject matter of the shooting, and select the corresponding definition and angle of view. ①If you need high-quality picture quality, choose a camera with a resolution of 4K If the video after shooting needs to be edited and uploaded to share on social media, be sure to choose a high-resolution camera. If you only keep it for yourself to watch, you can choose the resolution of full HD. ②If you are shooting intense sports, choose a camera with a high frame rate (60FPS) Frame rate (FPS) refers to the number of recorded pictures per second. The higher the frame rate, the better the video fluency. 24-30FPS is enough for shooting daily activities. However, if you want to shoot on a skateboard or bicycle, it is recommended to use a high frame rate model of 60FPS, especially in 4K quality to avoid frame jamming. ③Choose the angle of view of the camera as close as possible to 200 degrees Generally speaking, a wide viewing angle is powerful, and a small viewing angle can avoid picture distortion. According to the style and scope of the video, the closer to the human perspective (200 degrees) the more immersive the picture will be. Some cameras can adjust the angle of view and take different styles of video. [image] 2). Select the function according to the shooting scene ①In the scene of severe vibration, the camera must have the anti-shake function If you want to get the best image, it is recommended to use an optical image stabilization camera, optical stabilization could make the best video camera for sports,but due to the complex structure, the size of the optical image stabilization camera body is relatively large, and the price is also slightly expensive; the electronic image stabilization camera can resist slight vibrations, and can be used in non-violent activities. ②Water sports and outdoor shooting must have waterproof and dustproof functions If you are shooting on the water, you can choose a camera with a water depth of less than 3 meters; if you are shooting underwater such as diving, please choose a camera with a waterproof performance of 10-60 meters according to the diving depth. For motorcycle cycling in the wild, be sure to choose a model with high dust resistance. ③Pay attention to battery life! Confirm the charging time, standby time and shooting time before purchasing, and prepare a spare battery or mobile power supply. [image] 3). The size should be small and the weight should be light! Small and light, easy to install and carry. 4). Enough installation accessories are attached! Sufficient mounting accessories allow you to freely install on bicycles, motorcycles or helmets. 5).Wi-Fi Bluetooth function The Wi-Fi Bluetooth function connects with a mobile phone or tablet and immediately uploads the video to a social platform for easy sharing and storage. [image] 6). Display screen Equipped with a display screen to view the captured video images in real time. When we understand the purchase criteria of how to choose action camera, we can choose whether it is branded action cameras or non-brand products. After all, the price of non-brand cameras will be much cheaper. Choose 6-8 sports cameras with reasonable prices and compare their performance, choose best camera for sports photography, and start recording your vigorous posture!

How does a Leather Motorcycle Jacket Fit? - MotoGP Fitting Manual

How do you fit a leather motorcycle jacket?

The MotoGP Jacket remains the most popular MotoGP gear in the modern world. This is due to its outstanding quality features that make it so popular with the MotoGP sport world. Suzuki motorcycle jackets can provide exceptional protection, as well as a great fit. Innovative designs are desired by many people. Professional riders pay close attention to the quality of their race clothing to ensure they meet all the requirements. It all depends on whether a rider will wear the outfit on the track only or on the streets for the entire day. Each rider needs a different design and fitting.

The professional rider's leather motorcycle jacket should fit as close to your skin as possible. However, the leather motorcycle jacket for street riders should be loose enough to allow for some comfort.

Maher Leather, a well-known firm that produces leather Top gun jacket and other MotoGP gear, is very famous. They use only the highest quality original cowhide to make these wear. Maher Leather also stocks kangaroo and calf leather outfits. Their products are extremely durable, but they also offer exceptional looks and safety features. You can also customize your leather motorcycle jacket. This will make it easy to grip your bike and give you a comfortable ride.

To help you better understand, we took a short note on how to fit a leather motorcycle helmet jacket.

The Fitting Guide to Professional Leather Motorcycle Jackets

Let's discuss the appropriate fit of a racing outfit for riders. Professional riders prefer racing outfits with minimal bulk and high safety features. This includes leather or stretchy fabric. Most prefer custom-sized clothing for their race. They are comfortable and fit well. They want something that is close to their skin and protects them from any untoward events.

You should choose the sungfit costume for this feature. This will provide a great fit at the race track and allow you to perform well during the race. It should have a curving design. For racing, the sleeves and legs must have a pre-curved shape. Pre-bend can give you a good grip on the bike. This will help boost your confidence levels and allow for you to be more focused on the road. The pre-curved race clothing can offer more room to maneuver freely through the curves of the race track.

An accordion-leather paneling in the knee and back is the best option for the race outfit. Your outfit should include stretchable fabric at the arms and in the crotch. Both stretch and accordion leather are great options for comfort and a more relaxed fit. We recommend that you opt for a racing suit that is made of real cowhide, stretch fabric and has a bit more sung in fit, similar to the Maher Leather jackets.

Fitting Guide For Street Leather Motorcycle Jacket

People want to feel relaxed and comfortable when they are out on street riding. It is better to have a slightly looser motorcycle jacket for street riding or riding longer distances. This jacket is ideal for casual riding as well as adventure tours. This will give you enough protection, without making it uncomfortable.

You should make sure that your outfit isn't too loose. You could end up with less protection and possibly fall in a crash. This can lead to severe injuries, including to the elbows or knees.

Conclusion

The conclusion of our study is to choose the smallest, most comfortable jacket for professional racing and a looser jacket for daily riding. Maher Leather will make you the perfect fit, protect and provide the best riding experience.

Lawyer Utah

The feel of the wind as it goes over your face; the new life each rush of air brings to you; even the elements that rebound off your visor are gentle reminders of the joy riding a motorcycle can bring. It’s not hard to understand why avid riders have such a hard time putting their bikes away for the winter.

WHEN’S THE BEST TIME OF YEAR TO RIDE YOUR MOTORCYCLE?

However, the toughest riders will tell you that the greatest time to ride the highways of West Jordan, Utah is any time. By taking proper preparations and having a trustworthy lawyer on your side, you’ll never have to put your bike away.

Toughing It Out in the Heat

The ideal ride is in that perfect 70-degree weather with low humidity and a light breeze. Unfortunately, the no sweat weather is impossible to experience daily. Riding in the summer can be relaxing, but it will feel like riding in a giant hair dryer that’s been set to high.

If you are going to take on the hallucination haze, you need to take preparations seriously. Always pack a bag with more water than you think you’ll drink. Prepare for the signs of heat stroke. Any slip in attention can lead to a motorcycle accident.

Riding Through Rain

Committing to being a 12-month rider is no walk in the park. To avoid the hassle of finding a lawyer to represent you if you wreck, purchase the right kind of gear to get you through any season. The right helmet will make all the difference. Pick one with a visor and do your best to take on the roads as smoothly as possible. Do your best to find a dry line to ride in.

Standing Out in the Snow

Easily the most difficult time to ride a motorcycle is during the winter. Not only do you need to prepare yourself, but your bike also needs to be ready for the elements. Wear plenty of layers and invest in a windshield for your vehicle. If snow starts to fall while you’re riding, head home to avoid needing to call your motorcycle accident lawyer.

PREPARING FOR AUTUMN ROAD DANGERS

There is no set season for accidents. From an auto accident to a personal injury case, these accidents are happening every day, year-round. Whether you’re in Salt Lake City or the East Coast, seasons prove to bring different dangers with them. With the blistering heat coming to an end soon, fall is just around the corner—with fall comes danger from rainstorms and heavy winds.

A lawyer might not be able to help you against nature, however slip and fall accidents are also very common in the fall. Here are some of scenarios where you may be able to receive compensation.

Slippery Store Floors

With the rain pouring down during the autumn months, there are going to be leaky ceilings and wet floors at every mall and every store. Employees as well as company owners should be constantly making the effort to keep their floors dry. Wet floor signs are also crucial in keeping customers and other employees safe.

If you are injured in a store due to poor floor maintenance or lack of warning, contact your local injury lawyer to file a case. You deserve compensation if you or a loved one is injured.

Leaf Hazards

Fallen leaves define fall, however they can be dangerous if not raked. Fallen leaves can hide cracks and raised cement on sidewalks, which can lead to injuries for pedestrians who are walking on that sidewalk. If someone happens to be seriously injured because of this, the homeowner may be held responsible for not clearing the sidewalk.

Free Consultation with a Utah Lawyer

It’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when. Legal problems come to everyone. Whether it’s your son who gets in a car wreck, your uncle who loses his job and needs to file for bankruptcy, your sister’s brother who’s getting divorced, or a grandparent that passes away without a will -all of us have legal issues and questions that arise. So when you have a law question, call Ascent Law for your free consultation (801) 676-5506. We want to help you.

[soulmate-game]

Hawkmoth was a bitch, and Marinette meant that with every fiber of her soul. Fu was also a bitch, and Marinette actually had good memories of the guy. Not many, but she had some. The fact that the guy got two ten-year-olds to become super heroes and fight a supervillain for him kinda soured those memories, though. But with Chat Noir not allowed to leave his house? Yeah, even as young as they were it only took about a year to find out who HawkMoth was and another year to take him down.

Except, that left Marinette alone. The final battle took her mom away, and Chat had to move out of Paris after his dad was arrested. Luckily Jagged allowed her and her papa to move into his house in Gotham, and everything was…

Well, it was okay. For about a month.

Then her dad was gone too, and she had no way to talk to Jagged, and the police were scaring her—

Yeah, that was the basic order of events that led to where she was now. Pushing fourteen years old, ex-superhero, protector of a magical box of gods, stealing the tires off of a very nice motorcycle.

Marinette was tempted to just take the whole thing, she loved bikes and knew she could drive it. But the thing had more security than she knew what to do with, and the fact that it belonged to Red Hood… she didn’t want to deal with trackers today, thanks. So the tires it was.

Should she maybe care more about the fact that she was stealing from a vigilante with a violent streak? Maybe. Did she? Hell no. For all she knew, maybe Red Hood was a bitch too. (Yes, she was still learning English slang. She was fluent by educational standards, but learning how to curse in a foreign language was fun and she still had a little bit to go. Her few street friends were very happy to help).

A shadow dropped down in front of her, and Marinette’s hero instincts kicked in. The tire iron she was using cut through the air, slamming right into the side of Red Hood’s knee.

—*—*—*—*—*

“Hood,” Batman’s voice grumbled over the comms, instantly grabbing the attention of everyone else who was on the comms. It wasn’t as gruff as he usually sounded, in fact it almost sounded like… he was trying not to laugh?

“Did you get gassed by Joker?” Dick asked before Jason got a chance to respond. “Need backup?”

“No,” Batman responded, sounding a little more composed. “Not a rogue. But Hood, I need you to join me at my location as soon as possible.”

Finally getting the chance to talk, Jason responded a little warily; “Sure, B. Wait,” he blinked at the location that was sent to him. “Isn’t that where my bike is parked?”

Batman didn’t respond at first, only the sound of labored breathing— again, as if he was trying not to laugh. “Just get here, Hood.”

Sighing, but not too mad since the night had been fairly quiet so far, Jason decided to humor the old man and head over. When he could see the cape-clad back of Batman, he easily leapt over the last roof and sauntered over.

“Okay, B,” he had his thumbs tucked in his pockets as he drawled. “What’s the issue?”

Batman was grinning. As in, actually showing amusement. And he just pointed down, straight at Hood’s bike.

Jason rolled his eyes under his helmet, turning to look. At first he didn’t see anything amiss, until he saw movement and looked harder. Oh. Oh, holy shit.

“Is that a kid?”

“Yep,” Batman’s grin grew.

“Is she… stealing my tires?” Hood was so, so glad he wore a helmet that hid his expression. Because… wow.

“Yep,” Batman finally lost his composure, chuckling. “This seems like Karma, don’t you think?”

“And you just watched her so you could rub it in,” Jason groaned, throwing his head back in exasperation. Of course he would. Nobody knew it (except the other heroes who knew him) but Batman was a petty little jerk when he wanted to be. He bought the whole Daily Planet just to spite Clark, for crying out loud.

“Don’t adopt her,” Batman said as he stood up, patting Red Hood’s shoulder. “It looks like she’s almost done.”

“Shit,” Jason hissed, looking down to see that she was, actually, very close to being done. She had already had one tire completely free by the time he had arrived, and now she was only seconds away from getting the other one completely free.

He took a quick assessment— she was tiny, and really thin. Definitely a street kid, he thought, though he didn’t recognize her. He knew most of the street kids that stole to get by, nowadays, which meant she must have been fairly new. But even though she seemed to know what she was doing, her small frame made her take longer unscrewing the tires than it normally would have taken. Sure that she wasn’t a threat by any stretch of the imagination, he jumped down. His plan had been to startle her a little by showing up out of nowhere, but he didn’t want to scare her too badly. Just make her jump a little.

But he had underestimated her, it seemed. Without wasting a second, she jumped up and swung her tire iron at his knee. He cursed, she was a lot faster than her had been expecting. He was able to move so that the weapon only clipped the side of his knee, his knee pad thankfully taking the worst of it. She still hit hard enough to make him stumble and hiss in pain though, which was an accomplishment.

That’s when she abandoned her weapon and her tires, darting to try and escape only for Batman to drop down and block her escape. Though really, it was the grin Batman had that scared the girl most of all, apparently, making her slowly back away from him.

“Please stop smiling,” she begged with a faint French accent to her words. “It is not natural.”

That made Red Hood laugh, already recovered and right behind her. He plopped a gloved hand on her head.

“I know, it’s creepy right?” He joked. “What’cha doin’ stealing my tires, kid? I kinda need them to drive anywhere,” he was careful to keep his voice light and devoid of any anger. He wasn’t really upset, all told. It would be hypocritical of him if he was.

She looked between the two vigilantes for a moment, clear intelligence behind those bright blue eyes as she seemed to consider something. Suddenly she pulled away from Red Hood and stepped away from his reach, straightening up and trying to look tall.

“My name is Marinette Dupain-Cheng,” she said as firmly as she could. “My father was Tom Dupain, he was killed in a mugging three months ago. We were living in a house that our family friend leant to us after my mother’s death six months ago, and we moved here from Paris. I haven’t been able to contact him, and the police… I don’t trust them,” she admitted, clearly seeing this as the chance she had been waiting for. “I have been living on the streets since my father died. I am sorry for trying to steal your tires, Monsieur Red Hood. But it was a risk I had to take.”

“Did you expect us to catch you?” He asked, crossing his arms as he re-evaluated the girl. She was a lot stronger than he had assumed earlier, both physically and mentally. She seesawed her hand to indicate ‘kinda’.

“Even if you didn’t, I could make good money off your tires,” she justified with a shrug. “To me, I would win either way.”

“Who is your family friend? Can he help you now, take you in?” Batman asked, moving forward and kneeling down to be closer to Marinette’s height. Neither he nor Jason had missed the part where she was an orphan, but they had expected that considering what they had caught her doing. And they both knew that she wasn’t likely to take any apologies they tried to offer very well. It was best not to show pity, or she might get angry.

Marinette frowned. “... Our family friend is Jagged Stone. He lets me call him Uncle Jagged,” she told them, clearly expecting the disbelieving grunts they gave. “I mean it! You can call him, he might even be looking for me! I—“

“We know,” Hood assured her, now kneeling down as well. Man, she was short. “Calm down, we know you’re telling the truth. Jagged has made several public announcements about his missing honorary niece, we just didn’t recognize your name right away. And Jagged doesn’t have access to very many pictures of you, those he does have the Mayor isn’t allowing him to show because that spineless jackass—“

“Language, Hood.”

“—Cares more about keeping bad press off the air than finding a kid, even if it’s a world famous rockstar who’s asking. That’s probably why you haven’t heard anything, the mayor’s keeping it off the radio and not many reporters are brave enough to take the story and get on his bad side.”

“Oh…” Marinette took a deep breath, fighting the tears that were threatening to rise up. “He has been looking…” she sniffled, curling in on herself a little. “Can you take me to him?”

“I think we can do that,” Batman agreed, standing up. “I’ll contact him. Red Hood, can you handle everything here until I give you a place to meet up with Jagged Stone?”

Jason nodded. “No problem, B. Come on, little rabid pixie. Step one of gettin’ you back to your uncle is to help me fix my bike back up.”

Marinette sighed, shoulders dropping. “All my hard work, undone…” she playfully complained. But in the end she didn’t argue or fight against it, she just sat down and helped him reattach his tires.

All the while, Jason’s family kept teasing him over the comms. Clearly they were also thoroughly amused by the cosmic display of karma.

“...Monsieur Hood,” Marinette asked once they were done repairing the motorcycle and he had given her his too-big extra helmet. He tilted his head a bit to show he was listening. She squirmed. “Can… can we stop by my hideout? I have something really important I have to get.”

Jason smiles gently under his mask. She might not have been a street kid for very long, but she really did bring back some memories for him. He got on his bike and held a hand out to her.

“Sure thing kid. Wanna grab something to eat after? Can’t have a reunion on an empty stomach.”

She gave him a lopsided smile— not quite overjoyed, but definitely hopeful and thankful. Maybe this was the end of her streak of bad luck, she could only hope.

“Only if you don’t mind, Monsieur Hood,” she agreed before taking his hand and letting him help her onto the bike.

“No skin off my back, pixie,” he assured her. Then they were off. He followed her directions until they got to an abandoned building about three miles away, not in a good part of town at all but at least not in crime alley. Marinette easily led him through the building, skirting around other piles of ratty blankets and up broken stairs until they got to the badly-maintained top floor. She led him over to an almost invisible door in the concrete wall that pulled out to reveal what was probably a broom closet once upon a time. It was crowded with what looked like junk and empty boxes, along with a few blankets and two or three changes of clothes that were clearly her’s. A few belongings scattered around— a book, a small pink purse, and… Marinette came out of the pile of mess holding what had clearly been a very carefully hidden box. She also grabbed the purse and slung it over her shoulder, but didn’t seem worried about anything else.

Jason frowned at the box. It wasn’t that big, but it was clearly made of old wood. There were intricate carvings that were painted pink, in a symbol that was itching at the back of his mind. He recognized that symbol, but from where?

“Ready to go, kid?” He asked as he thought about it, getting a nod from Marinette. Twenty minutes later they were at a Batburger, sitting in a shaded booth that couldn’t be seen from the street.

She never let the box out of her sight. She kept it on the seat next to her, and Jason noticed that she tried to keep one hand on it at all times. But when she spoke, now her French accent stood out to him even more than before. But why—?

And then it clicked. Paris. Hawkmoth. Ladybug, Chat Noir, magic artifacts called Miraculous. Wonder Woman had raised a fuss when the heroes disappeared, declaring that something was wrong but she couldn’t put her finger on what. Then the magic users they trusted were called in, and returned from Paris with the grim news that the former Guardian of those artifacts had activated a failsafe and passed the guardianship on to someone else while erasing his own memories at the same time. But nobody knew who he could have passed it on to, so Batman had been given the green light to do all the research he and his team could into the Miraculous box to try and help track it down.

And here it was. The carvings were in pink now, which might have been the “cosmetic change” that Constantine had mentioned might happen when the box changed guardians. He had found the box full of super powerful magical artifacts… in the hands of a newly orphaned street kid who couldn’t have been older than fourteen at best.

What the hell?

“...” Red hood reached into his pocket and pulled out an old receipt and a sharpie. He scrawled on the back of the receipt and handed to Marinette. The girl was halfway into a bite of her burger when he did, and blinked at him owlishly before swallowing and cautiously reaching out to grab it. She frowned at the numbers scrawled there.

“What’s this?” She asked.

“My contact info,” he explained. “I won’t ask questions about why you have that box,” he watched her instantly stiffen but continued as casually as he could; “but it doesn’t matter. You can call me if you ever need help with anything, kid. Help with that box, help if you get in trouble in Gotham again, or even if you’re having a bad day. You can call me for whatever, got it? I don’t care if you think it’s stupid, if you can’t talk to anyone else in your life you can always call or text me and I’ll do whatever I can. Got it?”

“...” Marinette sniffled for a second and looked down at the table in silence for a second. “... what if I want your motorcycle?” she joked, but the watery tone of her voice gave her away.

Jason laughed, patting her head. “I need my bike, but we can talk about getting you your own once you are old enough to get a license. You almost done? Bats says that Jagged is ready to meet you, I can take you to him right now.”

“Yeah, lets go!” she was newly energized and shoved the last bite of burger into her mouth greedily. “And Red Hood?” She asked as they headed out to where he had parked.

“Yeah, kid?”

“Thanks.”
