Racing
on a 2 wheel motorbike is an exhilarating
experience. Racing on a motorcycle can come in two
main forms; motorcross and street racing. Off Road
racing is done with dirt bikes. Usually 150cc or
250cc motors riding on dirt and sand. The apparel
necessary to race on dirt is a motocross helmet,
gloves, helmet protector, boots, jerseys, and mx
pants.
To race road bike, you're going very fast on
concrete. You'll need to wear a quality helmet,
gloves, boots, leather pants and a leather
jacket with spine reinforcements.
The leading brands of motorcross racing include
Alpinestars, Fox Racing, Thor MX, O'Neal Racing, MSR
Racing,
Answer Racing, Shift Racing, HJC, Shoei, KBC and Nolan. The top
street bike racing brands and apparel include HJC,
Shoei, AGV, Joe Rocket, Icon Racing, Alpinestars and
Arai.
Getting properly suited up for a race is very
important. Safety is the main consideration. More
and more today, comfort and style is becoming an
important factor.
Technology is also playing a key role. Today's
designs and materials are helping riders suit up
more comfortably without removing any of the run.
Off Road racing tracks can be found outside most
metropolitan cities. Suburban America has a lot of
cheap land, and many of those have been decked out
for racing motorcycles. Designed with jumps, hills,
valleys, and killer corners, these off road tracks
will thrill any avid dirt biker.
Street racing requires going to a closed track. You
can take a nice drive down the beach or up the
winding hills, but danger lurks around the corner.
You have the police to content with, trucks, cars,
and pedestrians.
In a closed motorcycle track, you have just the
track and other bikes. All the fun with lowered risk
of accidents and the unknown.
