Gear Need-to-Knows

[Bassplayer]

go on www.motorhelmets.com they have a large selection at reasonable prices...

jackets should be snug, as should helmets. (uncomfortably snug at first)
Most brands are good, Icon, Joe Rocket etc...
Materials for jackets come in textile, mesh, and leather. and sometimes a combo of each.

Leather will provide the best protection, but will be hot, textiles that have kevlar can also be protective, and more light weight. Mesh is exactly how it sounds.

Helmets that are good, Arai, Icon, etc.. check the site for some prices and selection.

You will need a helmet. leather gloves, gauntlet style with reinforced knuckles.
A leather jacket with CE armor, a back protector, leather pants, again with CE armor, and some good booths that go above the ankle. Thats the minimum set.. As far ad brand, find what fits you the best.

yes sir!
