No. I heard of the ATGATT advantages when I started riding. But years of daily riding in Southern California (no optional cage), lots of triple digit temperatures, disabused me of such notions. If I thought about how miserable I was, my mind would not have been on the job of dealing with millions of maniacs daily. Not to mention that, if you have nowhere to stow your expensive ATGATT when you get where you are going, it will soon part company with you. Always boots, gloves, as those are guaranteed to hit first, if nothing else does.
Dumbest thing I ever did living down there was to buy a black helmet - that got replaced quickly!
