Bikers in motorcycle clothing are more attractive than those at the wheel of a car.

New research found that those wearing bike leathers are more attractive to the opposite sex than when they’re wearing regular clothes for driving.



In five out of six cases, members of the public dressed as motorcyclists were voted as more desirable than when dressed as drivers, making biking leathers and boots the go-to garments for those wanting to impress.

Bikers also trumped drivers in a whopping 76 percent of tests when going head to head about road and safety knowledge.

It’s not just levels of attractiveness which came out in favor of motorcyclists as riders are also seen to have positive personality traits. The results showed that people who own a motorbike are viewed as adventurous by a third of the opposite sex (34 percent), closely followed by daring (28 percent) and fun (26 percent).

I bought a couple Alpinestars jackets for my wife and I was telling my daughters that the jackets would probably look good used as a casual night out jacket. They are pretty stylish. I have been out at fast food places on my bike and had old ladies ask me if I was wearing ski boots (they were race boots). Funny shit right there.

Then why do I get funny looks when I wear my helmet in my truck?

I find it very interesting that when I'm on my ZedEx, the 'little kids' in the neighborhood all wave at me when I go, like they are seeing Iron Man go by or something.

When I'm driving my SUV, the same kids won't even look in my direction, and if I wave they don't wave back. LOL.

So ... being on a motorcycle, especially a sport bike, you look heroic.

Not sure how much this would apply to the pasty, bloated, hairy, unkempt, smelly cruiser riders, or to that lineup of Gold Wings parked in back of your local nursing home. The sport bike rider is like a Greek god among mortals.

I believe it, but my overall poor success in trolling implies that had I been your average non-biker, my chances would have been considerably less than 0% :O

Perhaps my garage is compensating for that history of poor success rate?

I mean, even to ourselves. When was the last time any motorcycle rider passed a mirrored building and DIDN'T look at their reflection? Answer: never

I'm gonna chalk this one up as another win for the ATGATT crowd
