Start with essential protective gear

The most important piece of dirt bike riding gear to purchase is a helmet to protect you from head injury in the event you fall off of your bike. You can find popular helmets, like a Bell Moto 10 a 6D ATR-2, or older models at a much more affordable price. Once you've squared away the right helmet for your kit, make sure to invest in a good pair of riding boots to protect your ankle and feet from getting caught against the ground and your legs from being exposed to heat from your bike.

Add on protection for your hands and eyes

Although it can be tempting to get a stylish new race kit after purchasing a helmet and boots, we think that protecting your eyes from debris that gets kicked up while riding and your hands from gripping your handlebars will make your overall riding experience much more enjoyable. Besides, you'll quickly find that the face shield on your helmet will fog up, so you'll want to move over to goggles to help you see while you're riding. The other protective gear worth picking up is a sturdy pair of gloves. If you're riding on trail, gloves will help to protect your knuckles from trail debris and keep your hands warm and dry throughout your ride.

Layer on motocross pants and a jersey

Last, but certainly not least, you'll want to invest in a protective pair of pants and a jersey that you can wear while you're out riding. These come in a wide variety of colors, so it should be easy to find a color that matches your bike. There are many different types of materials used for motocross jerseys and pants, so make sure to read through the specs to make sure the fit and heft meets your preferences. Overall, you'll want to consider durability, breathability, and comfort.
