Clothing: The prospects of suffering scratches and insignificant burns in a motocross race are quite high. To guard your body against these, it is very important to fully cover your arms and legs. Materials resistant to simple tears and rips are most fitted for motocross pants and jackets.

Motocross helmets: Defending your head, neck and backbone from injuries during a fall is of greatest importance. Choose a high quality helmet that fits fantasically and isn't too tight or too loose.

Gloves: Protective gloves serve 2 important purposes in motocross. Firstly, they shield your fingers and hands from serious injury and intense weather conditions, and considerably improve your grip on the bike. Select a pair of gloves that fit nicely, allow your skin to breathe, and are light-weight.

MX boots: Specially designed boots for motocross racing work most effectively. Top quality motocross boots are durable, strong and effectively defend your feet, ankles and legs. It's far better to have a bigger budget for boots as low quality products may fail to deliver the protection you want for more serious accidents.

Protective Goggles: It is important to shield your eyes while racing as obstructed vision can cost you the race. Buy a set of goggles that fit well with the helmet and stay in place. Make sure that the goggles won't compromise your surrounding vision.

Protective neck braces: Helmets are often not sufficient to defend your neck and head. Further neck brace support ensure that your neck and spine are protected during impact.

Rather than searching for the least expensive products, it's far better to invest a touch more money to buy top quality protective motocross equipment that will safeguard you for many races.

Find the correct gear

For all the fun that motocross gives you, there are plenty of hazards concerned. So being fitted out with the proper gear is vital. Motocross helmets, clothing, boots, pants, protection and chest protectors are a selection of the most vital gear you need to supply yourself with. Make certain to check for a seal that attests the standard of your motocross helmet and other equipment.

Be happy with your Motocross bike

Before you hit the tracks, it is important that you make yourself comfortable with the bike on which you're going to ride. If you have got a new bike, first make yourself acquainted with its workings. Try riding on a dirt track so you learn how it feels and you can get your balance right. When you learn to ride skillfully while seated, try riding in a standing position. Gradually you may learn various tricks like dealing with the shocks from the bumps.

Prepare to get hurt

Another crucial tip - don't be afraid of getting hurt. As you keep practicing, you will eventually fall and get hurt a considerable number of times before you master the fundamentals. So you must keep yourself psychologically and physically prepared to suffer the falls. Even the best riders in the motocross circuit had to suffer many falls, so do not allow that to stop you from being the rider you want to be. Leading a robust and active lifestyle will make it less complicated for you to endure minor wounds.

POA Racing is a popular Motocross shop who sell a broad selection of Motocross gear, helmets, boots, motocross clothing and accessories from leading names in the world of motocross.

There are some checks that you must carry out every time you take your bike out for a ride, whether it is an event or a practice run. Before you get on the bike, spend a few minutes going over the most obvious areas of the bike looking for anomalies. Specific points to check are the chain, the wheels and spokes, the air filter and every visible nut and bolt on the bike. Make sure the chain is free from distortions and is well lubricated, and clean the air filter or replace it if it is looking past its best.

Before you take your motocross bike out for an intensive practice run or a scheduled event, there are some more stringent checks you need to carry out. One of the most important areas on any vehicle to check are the rotational bearings used in the swingarm, wheels and headstem assemblies. Bearings will regularly need re-packing with grease and also need to be checked for mechanical tolerances (or 'play'). If you find that a bearing feels 'loose' or there is more friction than expected, replace it immediately.

All 2-stroke motocross bikes sold nowadays come with a power valve system that helps to improve operating efficiency and therefore power output throughout the rev range. Due to the nature of this system, the power valves require regular maintenance to keep them running efficiently and effectively. Cleaning modern power valves is not an easy task as some can contain over 40 separate parts. If you decide to take the job on yourself, get yourself a workshop manual and do not use cleaning materials that will score or damage the aluminum surface of the power valve.

If you do not have one, go and buy a manual for your bike as even if you are mechanically competent, you will need one for reference on torque settings, part numbers, and build and re-build processes. Other points to remember are frequent oil changes depending on how hard you ride your bike (between every 4 and 10 hours of riding), and making sure the tires are suitable for the riding surface and are in good condition.
