Go with youth. check out denniskirk.com for closeout deals and they have great sizing charts to help you get measurements to make sure it all fits right, if youre planning on growing out of it, its nice to save the money. womens are cut differently, the youth will fit longer as your grow and change shapes

motonet answers:

just make sure your not on the rev limiter on the face of the jump.

And it differs, i have it a 75ft jump 4th gear pinned,and a 90ft jump in 3rd gear.
it depends on the angle of the jump, it will just come to you with experince.

oh yeah be sure to get corner speed first, the jumps will come naturally.

motonet answers:

To get gear for the CHEAPEST amount possible…do this…
go to a local mx shop that has ladies gear to try on. Try on several different brands and styles but don’t buy any of it there. Write down the gear brand you like and what sizes you wear. Head home, jump on the computer and get on Ebay! People sell gear for crazy low prices on there if you look around! ( I have got pants for $10 that were brand new!)
Not to be a debbie downer…but your parents are right about it being expensive. Gear is BY FAR the cheapest part of motocross. Bikes break a lot, and the repairs don’t always come cheap. Tell them you understand the cost issues and you are willing to pick up chores and help out around the house. Good luck girl, I’m a girl too and I ride a crf150rb. Great bike! You aren’t going to find a lot of cheap bikes. If you do realize there is something wrong with it and will cost more to get it properly working. If I were you I would hunt for a crf150rb or regualr r version. They are 4-strokes and good starter bikes, but not wimpy by any means. Dealerships where I live have em’ running from around 3,300-4,900. That is brand new. Check your local paper or see some used bikes at either a dealership or take a peek on Craig’s list!

i dont shift down. if anything i find the deepest rut, or line then ill clutch and gas and when im almost out the turn i let go of the clutch. or ill sit up on my gas tank and clutch and hair pin turn on the corner. but no dont shift.

motonet answers:

You just need to wear the boots in as much as you can. Where them around the house. Another suggestion is to leave them out in the sun for a bit.

You may also be finding it hard as the shoes you wore before would most likely bend so you used just your toes to shift. The boots won’t bend at the toe so you have to get accustomed to using the whole foot movement to shift and not just focussing on the toes. Bend at the ankle

motonet answers:

You are not doing your bike any harm as bikes are manufactured with what is called a crash gearbox. So you don’t need to use the clutch when changing. Just keep doing what you are doing and as you get better try not to overuse the clutch in corners instead of changing to the right gear as this is a bad habit a lot of riders get into and if you ever end up riding sand events you will always be on the clutch and will be going to fit in a days riding without burning it out.

motonet answers:

It becomes just the same as getting used to the boots. My youngest has worn the full on expensive knee braces for as long as I can remember racing as knee injury is a real problem with the sport. He wears skins first, then the knee high or over the knee racing socks and then the brace over that. The pants cover everything so when getting pants you need to try them on with the braces so you know that the pants wont be too restrictive. Then everything goes into the boots.
Once you get used to wearing all this you won’t ride without it. I know my son would not get on his bike without his knee braces on.

Shifting gears with knee braces on should not make a difference to shifting as the braces stop lateral movement and still have hinges to make it so you can bend your knee. The shin guards also allowed for knee bend so it really should not effect changing gears

motonet answers:

nope, but if you find one, let us all know….

motonet answers:

The first answerer has given you are very comprehensive list and the only thing I would add is a set of skins to wear under the gear. Not only great for comfort but also aid in faster energy and muscle recovery. If skins are too expensive you could just wear ladies or girls black footless tights as it just makes the pants more comfortable. Long socks are also great.

Nothing wrong with Troy Lee design gear. It seems as tough as any other of the known brand gear like fox

motonet answers:

well thankfully ur not limited, all brands make a red helmet (duh? lol).

if u have some real $$ to spend, I would get a quality Arai helmet, theyre expensive but make amazing helmets

but if ur only willing to spend a little, some good brands are HJC, Bell, One Ind., Thor, or Fox

motonet answers:

motoworldracing.com and motosport.com
you can get all the gear you need to ride (helmet, boots, gloves, goggles etc.) also parts and accessories for your dirtbike.
And yes you can get a honda crf150r cheaper then the dealers by buying it used somewhere. Try craigslist or something like that

motonet answers:

every bit helps… better too much than not enough..

motonet answers:

If you are just after cheap used gear then look on ebay. Heaps of people get rid of their used and outgrown or unwanted gear on ebay and you can usually get it pretty cheap. Otherwise look on sites like btosports as they may have closeout sales,

Boots- my brother used to put under the jet wash….orr hand wash them and polish ontop…

Jersey check the label… u shud be able to put it in the washing machine, if i dnt want to put the t-shirt into a bag of sum sort, cloth obviously to protect …. (if u have ur name on the back and ur number)

and put it into the washing machine..

Hope this helped this is wat my parents did twice a week for my brother, his kits were fine!

good luck

motonet answers:

You my be better going online.

That way, you can pick what you want.

motonet answers:

Honesty here, your best bet is to actually try it on. Different brands are all over the place…for example in Thor I don’t fit into the smallest women’s size I have to use little girls gear in their brand. For Fox I wear a 3/4!? I typically wear a size 1/2 jean size but that isn’t the best thing to go with when dealing with mx gear. I tried that one time and I had to send back the gear I ordered online because it was ALL wrong! It is nicer to actually try the gear on so you can find what kind of fit you like and what you will find most comfortable when riding. ( Which is important…you don’t want major wedgies when your riding, ya know.)
Please trust me and check out a dealership that sells bikes or mx gear in your area and slip on a few different brands to find what YOU prefer. I’d compare mx gear to jeans…you may be a 0 in one brand and a 2 in another…just don’t know unless you try it! Good luck on your search.

motonet answers:

There is a company called ogio that make gear bags and hydration systems for motocross. I don’t know if they make jerseys and pants but they may. Other than that I can only think of Oxtar. You could have a look at some of their products at mxsouth.com

motonet answers:

I don’t live in Georgia, I’m out in california. I ride for a shop out here that sells alpinestars gear, cloths, and other products… its a lot cheaper than if you bought stuff from the mall. Go to the link below to check it out. Go throught the pages and check it out.

motonet answers:

Never heard of it :/

I don’t really like a particular brand of clothing. Well, maybe band tees XD

Normally I just get whatever is comfy and that isn’t too expensive.

motonet answers:

All my clothes are from there.

And you should deff buy them,because if you like it, It does not matter if you don’t skate or do anything else. It would not make you a poser.
You are a poser if you say you skate and you DON’T.

So don’t you care about that and buy it if you really like it..

Well at least that is my opinion………
