Unexpected benefit when carrying on motorcycle.
Motorcycle is my primary mode of transportation.
After doing quite a bit of research into the laws and other people's encounters; or lack of; while "openly" carrying while riding.
I decided to give it a try.
Started late last Fall. Only got a couple joy rides in before the snow started.
Then began once again in mid March.
Over the years of adding various items to my riding gear; hi-viz helmet, class 2 safety vest, hi-viz aerostich roadcrafter suit.
I noticed with the addition of each item. Car drivers would violate my right-of-way a little less.
Now with the addition of an openly carried revolver on my hip. I've noticed an unexpected benefit.
Car drivers are giving me A LOT more room on the roadways.
Especially out of state cars with NJ plates.
I just wish my job was in PA and not NJ. So I could carry during most of my riding; ie commuting.--ET

AK slung across your back may work even better

I have an MG-42 mounted on mine. It gives you a bit of an edge.
