:unsure: What does everyone like to wear to ride? Jeans, tennis shoes and a T-shirt? or Full out "riding gear" with boots pants jersey, chest protection, etc.? whatever it is, with a helmet and goggles, I hope.

I ALWAYS wear a helmet and goggles, but sometimes I'd just rather be comfortable and put-put around rather than "suit up" and tear off down the trail. How about you?

ALWAYS have to have the helmet, goggles, boots and gloves. As far as clothing...depends on the season. Pretty hot here in Vegas so IF we ride in the summer its shorts and a tank top. Winter...riding pants, jersey, long sleeve under shirt and sweat shirt.

I always wear a helmet and goggles. I either where jeans or riding pants depending on how gun ho I feel! I have recently started to wear riding boots, they take a while to get used to shifting in but provide so much more protection then tennis shoes. I usually prefer to wear a riding jersey over wearign a t-shirt, that way I don't get the infamous glove tan!

Hey fox300exchic I live in Vegas too!

Aboout 95% of the time, I'm wearing jeans,shirt, and boots (not MX boots). Rarely, when I go to the dunes or trails or just feel like dressing up all MX, then I'll put on my jersey, pants,and MX boots. And yeah, about 99%, I got my helmet on.

so I 99% of the time ride/race in full gear...pants, jersey, gloves and boots...I've slowly learned that I really don't enjoy wearing goggles. Especially when goign through mud/water.......dust they're ok with :)

...and I've decided that I hate Fox riding gear, nothing fits me and it rips/wears toooo easily. I'm sticking to my Thor and Girlyz gear!!!!

Yeah I only wear my clothes or THOR, no other line of clothes. I always wear my helment, goggles and gloves,riding shirt, and it depends on what mood I'm in to wear my riding pants or jeans.

I love my Fox gear, most of the "girly" brands don't come in my size..... Besides, pink clashes with my red quad! lol:laugh:

Girlyz has some awesome gear....check this out:

They're both red pants....and they make sizes up to a 20! I know, cause I have a hard tiem finding things to fit comfortably....I wear about a 13 in regular pants, but for some reason the size 13 riding pants are too tight...so I get the Rec pants from Girlyz and order a size bigger:biggrin::biggrin:

I would never order boots online. I wear fox boots, I've always wore size 12. The last boots I bought were the same boots just a newer model and now I have to wear a 13. Always try them on first. Sorry ladies, just had a little info that could save some one a headache.

Now continue on with your clothes Talk!

Really Bot?? Cause I bought my boots of Dennis Kirk, and actually saved about 50% on them because they were on sale!!!! I just went by what size shoe I wore..they fit great!!!!

But you know, you could always go to the local race shop, try on a pair of boots, tell the store you don't know if you like them yet, then go home and buy the same ones online if you can find them cheaper!:thinking::yes:

Well, it's a bit diff for me because I ride a Rhino and not a quad. I do wear the standard gear, jersey and riding pants and gloves. As far as a helmet goes, I only wear one when I'm doing something crazy or going through a tough rocky trial where there is potential for rollover. I wear hiking boots/shoes because riding boots are too hard to ride the Rhino in. When I ride Stoopidbot's quad, I wear it all though! :cute:

I never buy mine online either. Not all boots fit the same. I had Fox boots first and now I have Alpinestars. Totally different.

      Brake handle question
      By mga
      on my left brake handle (for the rear brakes) there's two wires attached to it. What are these wires for? They can't be for the tail light, since it only has on filament  I tried to trace them, but i got lost in the harness. I checked wiring schematics, but didn't see anything like that.
      I'll post a pic later.

      LT300e Won’t turn off with key
      By Jd101506
      Hi all-
      I’ve got a LT300e that I’m working on.  The last two days I noticed as I’ve been testing it, it won’t turn off with the key. The kill switch still works to turn it off, as does everything else (lights, neutral light, reverse, starter, etc). So I guess I’m taking votes on what to do here… Ignition the issue? Wiring grounding issue somewhere? 
      Not sure where to start so any help would be appreciated!

      Yamaha Big Bear keeps locking up throttle on right turn
      By Bedrock_Engineer
      My Yamaha big bear keeps on locking up on a right turn. It didn't do that before sending to mechanics. I don't know what the problem is, any advice is appreciated.
