Are you a troll? Do you seriously think someone is going to get the chance to yank your gun off while you're on a bike? First of all who just stands there if someone tries to yank on them?

lol.....no, it's just not comfortable inside the waistband while riding
I carry IWB around town for the same reason. I don't want to spook the herd or give up a tactical advantage. OWB does offer a bit more protection for the gun if the inevitable road surfing event occurs. I saw a compact Glock look like a dog's chew toy after a bit of road rashing while being carried OWB. It was still functional but it looked like heck.
3 V-Stroms.......ok. So two just didn't cut it. I just gots to know why three? The Super Duke is a cool tool for the road. The V-Stroms have a good reputation too.
I'll probably pick up a used dual sport this fall and spend more time on trails than the street.
Just dont let people get to close. A good holster helps too. I like leather holsters so usually its covered by a T-shirt. I dont ride a bike but Id I did id wear it on the outside. That way if I drop the bike at least the holster might break free so the pistol does not break my pelvis.
That would actually be quite hard. Unless my gun falls on a stick at just the right angle, i dont see that happening. I dont see anything pulling that trigger. Sure if you have some piece of crap gun like a lorcen or something. You drop it , it might go off. A quality handgun has features that allow it not to be fired unless the trigger is pulled.
i've never heard that before..........
I see folks all the time packing heat on bikes. I doubt it is true. Its a motor vehicle like anything else.
Most guns go off when the trigger is pressed. Not just glocks.
It seems like maybe you shouldn't carry while you ride since you believe "anything can happen in a wreck" then following that logic no gun is safe to carry while on a bike.
I thought that putting that many miles on 1 bike would ruin the resale plus I kept one at the lake so I could ride over w/ my family but still have personal transportation w/o leaving them stranded.
The V-stroms is considered to be very ugly (like a Glock) but I don't care....function over form.
They are just good no-drama efficient transportation.
Plus my wife forbid to buy one...so I bought 4.
Fortunately for me, she got over it.
