Yep, I just need to find a way to combine that outfit with my latest accessory.

Picked it up Saturday and fulfilled a lifelong dream.

Congrats! Fine looking machine. I've actually driven my aero 1100 kilted... Can't quite do it at highway speeds and it's a little too challenging to throw a leg over the goldwing

Personally, I think you look great!

Don't think I'll even try it on my Triumph.

I think your wife is right, AND I like it!

(Edit: Not "my" look at all, not remotely, I wouldn't be caught deid lookin' like that. But on you I think it's absolutely smashing! I'm quite capable of appreciating the aesthetics of other styles on other people, and all the elements here are congruent and "fit together" well. That's the main thing that, in my eyes, looks "good" about the photo.)

Great look. I certainly couldn't pull it off but you do it in spades. Very nice.

It works for you. If you dig it, nobody elses opinion matters. Well, wives are the exception to that rule.

OOOH! How do you do it without apron flippage or the back of the kilt getting eveerywhere? I am dreaming up a way to prevent such things through finer textile engineering but I would love to try it without if it works.

And thanks for the compliments, guys. Always nice to know I'm doing it right!

Ah... so here is what I learned at church the other evening.... So there are a set of sisters (not nuns) that are regulars. They are in their 70's. Anyway, they know that I commute on the goldwing. Both of them want to go for a ride. They then told me that when they were younger, the boys would have motorcycles and they would take them for rides. They would just tuck the front and back of the skirt under them. Apparently, the "boys" would sometimes hit a bump (shocks weren't as good then) and the girls would lift off the seat... just enough to have a skirt blowing in their face. Because of the types of motorcycles... they really couldn't let go of the driver to fix things. I think the guys got quite the charge out of it.

I've done it (riding the moto kilted) without any kilt pin..., but swung the sporran to the side. Just go out and give it a try. Like I said before, its hard to swing a leg over the goldwing because of the height and width of the bike (although I did it yesterday when I was moving things around in the garage), but a lower slung cruiser... piece of cake. Just go out and do it!
