I was trying on my new chaps that I ordered online and just recieved in the mail, when in walked my 26 year old daughter who knows nothing about bikes and she exclimed VERY loudly OH MY GOD, YOU BOUGHT ASSLESS CHAPS!! BY the way I did have my Levis on! First I stammered then I blustered" They're ALL made that way! " I guess she thought I was going to do my best David Lee Roth impression while riding to Starbucks!

Well, maybe it wouldn't have caused her so much surprise if you'd been wearing pants...

Hey wait a minute! All I need now is a leather vest and one of those old fashioned leather biker hats with the hard bill and I could look like one of the Villiage People! On second thought.... anyone want to buy a pair of assless chaps?

I held off on buying chaps as long as I could. I didn't want to be a leather clad poser, but after buying my chaps I was mad that I waited as long as I did. My chaps allow me to commute to work year round. I just make sure nobody I know sees me in them.
Learning from my mistakes... again and again.

I thought assless chaps were better than wearing leather pants. My BA gets more attention when I'm wearing chaps, just not the attention I was looking for.

I can still commute when it is in the 30 degree range instead of riding the cage when it goes below 45.

Wow 30 degrees? The coldest Ive been out was 37 but I knew it was going to be 70 later that day. I guess thats why the Colts have a retractable roof for us cold weather wusses!

I was out today looking for a pair of chaps. I don't want to be unprepared for the Arkansas Rally this weekend. Hopefully tomorrow I have better luck, most of what I've found is way tacky

Two reasons why I will never wear assless chaps;
1. I suffer from Noassatall. 2. I watched a guy step off a high speed wobble, land on his posterior and hands, spin slow circles down the freeway a short distance, and come up with hamburger ******. He saved his hands because he had gloves. I literally puked my guts out when I stopped to help. 25 years ago, I will always have my tush covered.
Ridin' and playin' 'til I can't.

I wear mine when traveling and it's cold. There's nothing like leather to cut the cold wind. The protection aspect is secondary to me and way better than just jeans. I definitely didn't buy them for the look.

So, what you're saying is that it's better to be an assless chap than to wear assless chaps?

LOL I can only imagine I managed to find some today for a good price that are... get this... just plain black leather! No fringes, tassels, studs, or sparkles anywhere on them. They are stiff as a board right now so I put some leather softener for my ball glove on them and threw them in the dryer. Worked out OK, got a little softer.

As Rob pointed out to me once. If chaps had an ******, they'd be pants.
