Apparel
My apologies if this is not the right forum area to post.
I have various HD shirts, when I wear them the wind always whips them up and they rise above my under shirt. I end up tucking the front under my belt as I go down the road every so often. Would I look like a goober with my shirt tucked in my jeans?? This is one of the shirts I wear (and is a great shirt) https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...t/p/96502-25VM
I don't buy HD apparel all the time, but some of their stuff that is bike appropriate happens to work with my "style". I don't look cool, just normal.

Wow, I must be a goober.
I always tuck my shirt in my jeans.
I always wanted to lose weight so it was to remind me that I was fat. Now that I've lost the weight it's to remind me to not get fat again.
Fat guys seem to think not tucking their shirt in makes them look less fat - it doesn't. But you yourself can't see your own belly flopping over.
But I would never wear a Harley-Davidson shirt - nothing against Harley-Davidson, it's a fine company, but I wouldn't wear a shirt advertising Kleenex or Whirlpool either.
So is a non goober a guy with that dirty leather vest two sizes too small for them with patches all over and a Harley Davidson advertisement shirt hanging out?

most my shirts blow up in front at highway speed on my Road King, and expose my hairy old belly.
I figure if anyone looks, they’ll only look once.
As for tucking them in, I stopped doing that forty years ago. The stinging insects need a way out.

You will look more like a "goober" if you have an accident or road slide with wearing just a Tee Shirt. Protective gear, helmet, gloves will serve you well should the road decide to meet your body.
However, to each his own.
Just tell me when you are going to have and accident or a car turn left in front of you and I'll tell you when you should be wearing protective gear.

Well it's like anything - you look around at what looks stupid or like a bum and don't do that.
What I see is grown *** men in little boy shorts down to their ankles or pajama bottoms, with hero worship sports number jerseys or dirty oversized tee shirts not tucked in with flip flops on.
I don't do that.
