    Bike won't start in gear, clutch in

    Just noticed this starting to happen on a 3 day camping trip. I had expected the bike to start when having the clutch lever pulled in while in gear with the kickstand up. Presuming at this point it is the small switch attached to the clutch perch or connections. Any other possible reasons...

    Jacket Decision

    I am deciding between 2 jackets. I am a typical brokeish college student that is looking for some protective gear. I like both jackets about equally cosmetically, but want to know if anyone has tried either jacket? Also, which do you think would protect me more in a crash situation? Shift...
