Motorcycle carry?
Has this subject been done before? I ride a bike quite often and got to thinking today about the best way to carry on a bike. I'm sure I'm overlooking circumstances and use, but im trying to consider different scenarios. I tossed out the idea of clutch or throttle hand because I doubt you'd ever legally have to do some Hollywood style shooting with the bike moving but you never know. I often hold the clutch in at traffic lights so I figure I'm doing well with keeping my gun holsters on my right side (owb but covered by shirt). Im just curious if this needs more thought. Crap can hit the fan in no time flat when you're seemingly minding your business at a traffic light or even riding along for that matter.

The gun cracked two of his ribs when he came down on it. The only injuries he had because he was wearing full leathers and helmet.
I would say a couple busted ribs were better than carrying small-of-of-the-back!

A leather motorcycle jacket may offer a fine place for such things?
Concealed or open? Here in AZ bikers, err motorcyclists, most commonly have a belt holster about 4 o’clock if right handed. AZ is constitutional carry meaning no permit open or concealed so no one gives much thought to completely coverage particularly in the summer heat. Our motorcycle police use the standard LEO utility belt, holster.
