Title: Gear? Post by: MotoMike on March 07, 2005, 12:25:01 PM Tonight I am going to get some gear. Here are the pieces I was thinking of getting, maybe Thor, Fox, AlpineStar, HJC and other name brands.
Helmet Googles Riding Pants Boots Gloves Chest Protectors Kidney belt (if needed) and maybe a Jersey. Anything I am forgetting? Mike Title: Re: Gear? Post by: Mrs.Nightbreed on March 07, 2005, 12:39:21 PM if you plan on jumping a lot - knee guards
Also a tether switch will be required at any type of track. Title: Re: Gear? Post by: MotoMike on March 07, 2005, 12:41:26 PM Thank you!
This may sound dumb but what is tether switch? Is that a kill switch? Mike Title: Re: Gear? Post by: 53yfz450 on March 07, 2005, 12:46:00 PM if you have ever ridden a jet ski thats bassically that wire that hooks up to your bars and your chest protecter so when you fall off it cuts your engine off.
Title: Re: Gear? Post by: atvtrailer on March 07, 2005, 12:46:22 PM yea, its a kill switch with a cord that hooks to u so if u fall off the bike it shuts it off
Title: Re: Gear? Post by: MotoMike on March 07, 2005, 12:47:15 PM Cool, I figured thats what she was talking about...will get one of those too.

Post by: YFZ450-Tampa on March 07, 2005, 03:26:46 PM Hey about that kill switch, don't buy the first one they offer you at the store, I pay $78 for mine becuase I needed for the GNCC race, but that same Kill swith I could got it for $38 or $40 on line or in some other stores so "shop arround" before you pay more...
