Knee

[JRP]

alright well not to sound like a ***** or anything, but everytime i ride when im leaning my sides of me knees huurt like a bicth, its from grippin on the gas tank, is there anythin i can do to make it not hurt as much, im thinkin about knee pads but they jus seem stupid. thanks

I've never had my knees hurt from gripping too tight to the tank, but then again... I use knee gaurds. Knee guards are far from stupid, I surely wouldn't want to ride without them.

i got this same problem too. cept its with my calves. it rubs all the hair off em and make my legs look gay lol.

yah, the side of my knees have always been rubbed raw by my gas tank

so i had my grammy (yah, i said grammy) sew some extrapadding into my riding gear around that erea, fixed the problem 100%

Why the hell would you not wear knee/shin guards?

i have the shift knee/chin guards and it still gets me.

they hurt and there jus black and blue, all bruised up. My sis played volleyball so i guess ill try those knee pads. How much do knee pads run? thanks

On the inside of the knees right at the bend? It happens to me also. I have huge bruises and need to invest in some knee pads.:macho

Dang, me too, it sucks, from that and my snowboard boots I have random bald spots on my leg, and because I used to ride in shorts half my leg hair burnt off.
