Answer 3

You'll want a full face motocross SNELL approved helmet, ankle high boots and some gloves. The 150 WILL work, but i recommend getting a larger bike like a 250F.

Always were body protection on any type of motorcycle.

A helmet is not only law in every type of racing but common sense.

Answer 6

Always wear your safety equipment and always remember this......Tree's, Rock's, Grass, Dirt, Concrete and other mysterious objects are not your friend and they have no remorse about you bouncing off of them, so always wear your helmet and gear.

Answer 7

It doesn't matter whether it's motocross or just trail riding, you ALWAYS need to wear protection.  At least wear a helmet.  Also, you should probably buy a bigger bike, possibly a 250 cc.

Answer 8

full helmet always.

Majority of motorcycle crashes end up with the biker landing on their chin.
