1. Helmet
Prioritize helmets with certifications like 3C (China), ECE (EU), or DOT (US)—they meet strict impact standards. Choose the right size: it should fit snugly (1-2 fingers’ space between head and helmet) without shifting when you move. Full-face helmets offer maximum protection for daily practice; modular (flip-up) helmets work if you need frequent stops. Replace helmets after any impact, even if undamaged.
- Visors
Shield eyes from wind, dust, and rain. Opt for anti-fog, shatterproof PC lenses. Use dark lenses for daytime (UV protection) and clear ones at night. Ensure a tight fit with your helmet to avoid gaps.
3. Gloves
Avoid regular gloves—ride-specific ones have slip-resistant palms (silicone/rubber) and impact-resistant knuckle guards. Choose lightweight, breathable pairs for summer and insulated ones for winter. Ensure flexibility for easy throttle, brake, and clutch use.
4. Joint Protection
Elbow/Knee Guards: Adjustable, form-fitting guards with hard ABS shells prevent injuries during falls. They should stay in place when moving.
Back Protection: Lightweight, 蜂窝 - padded (honeycomb-padded) vests or inserts shield your spine.
Ankle Guards: Semi-enclosed guards stabilize ankles—critical for parking and shifting.
5. Riding Jacket, Pants, and Boots
Jacket/Pants: Split-style (separate top and bottom) is easy to wear. Look for abrasion-resistant fabric (Oxford/Cordura) with built-in shoulder, elbow, and knee pads. Choose ventilated options for summer and waterproof ones for rain.
Boots: Mid-calf boots with ankle support and slip-resistant soles. They should be sturdy but flexible for shifting and braking.
Key Tips
Ensure gear fits well—too loose shifts; too tight restricts movement.
Check gear regularly: replace worn parts (e.g., loose Velcro, cracked shells).
Test gear with your motorcycle to ensure it doesn’t hinder control.
