Hey guys so I was thinking, where do guys you keep your gear ( helmet, gloves, jacket) when you get to work, school, shops or going out? It's a weird question but I'm curious to know ahaha.

Easy, just wear the clothes you need on the bike.

When I go to the gym, I wear my runners and singlet ad shorts.

If I'm goin to the beach I just wear my thong.

I'm awesome!

You Knob !!!

Adamm - at work, I put the gloves in the lid, and hang that and the helmet on a coat rack. Boots are swapped with shoes that stay at work. Easy !

My work kindly provided lockers; although they are on the 1st floor and my office is on the 4th floor. I have a suit & shoes in my locker. Suit gets dry cleaned on casual Fridays.

Work: I've got a desk job, after I shower and change I just shove whatever I'm not wearing under the desk.

Shops: If I've got my tailbag, everything goes inside and I cable-lock it to the bike. If not, I leave the jacket on, the gloves under the rider's seat and the helmet(s) hooked under the pillion seat.

Uni (when I went): Carried a backpack for the books and gloves. Jacket and jeans stayed on, helmet hooked under the seat.

I use occasionally. Seen a few of them on bikes parked around Lygon St.
One I use more often is a helmetlok

haha the suzuki across was my learner bike, best idea ever!!!!!!!!!!!!
i loved that bike!
some people called it my handbag compartment, but i didnt give a shit cause it fitted my helmet, or even jacket and boots and the bike even has helmet clips under the seat so i didnt have to carry my gear around

, then who was laughing

Helmet - lock it under the pillion seat when I go to the shops. At work, take it inside and put it on the desk with the gloves inside so they're all nice and warm and cosy...

Clothes - wear this to work and get changed into pants and shirt. Office job....

Boots - Leave on the black SIDI boots as they look like work shoes to anyone else.....
