Q. I'm looking for a place that sells motorcycle protection for a good price, almost sharted myself when I saw a one piece armored suit going for 500-1000 dollars. I hope there are places that sell protective gear for a more reasonable price, or maybe thats reasonable, and I'm just a noob.


Answer
check out cyclegear.com or go to a shop if you have one locally

all my gear i've gotten from my local cycle gear:
gloves (mesh for summer, waterproof for winter)
pants (w removable air panels)
mesh jacket
vented mx boots (with waterproof covers)
thermal base layer
helmet (modular w internal visor)
cooling base layer for extra hot days
-all black synthetics (except gloves) with CE rated padding for under $600
one complete layer alone was less than $450- helmet (100), jacket (80), pants (100), gloves (40), and boots (120)
all my gear (except thor boots) is of cycle gear's in house brands- bilt (5 yr NQA warranty) or sedici (lifetime NQA warranty)
i've been very pleased so far with the design and quality of cycle gear's protective apparel- i've only replaced the waterproof gloves after a few years because they were leaking. they grabbed a new pair off the shelf and i was on my way with no hassle
they also have higher end and leather gear/ full suits, i just wasn't interested in the extra expense/ weight/ lack of flexibility

ok i want to get into cycling like with a racing bike. what should i get to get started?

Answer
Start with a helmet. Never put your butt on the seat without your helmet on your head.

Cycling shorts and gloves aren't 100% necessary, but they do make a big difference. A cycling jersey instead of a T-shirt also makes a big difference.

You will be on the road bike for much longer times than when you go running. Buy a big tube of sun screen and use it, especially on your neck, ears, and thighs.

Shop around for a true road bike. Go to the local shops and see what they have that fits into your budget. Test ride the bike. Go to other shops and test ride as many bikes as you can. One will just fit and feel better than the others. Buy that bike regardless of the name on it. The business is so competitive that any two bikes at the same price point are very likely to be equivalent values.

Road bikes get flats. Get a mini wedge bag that attaches under the seat. Get a set of tire levers and a spare tube to put in it, about $3 each when you hit the sales just right. Get a pump ($15 and up). Get water bottles. Your bike may or not come with water bottle cages. I always have two on my bike ($5 each).

To be most effective, you will need clipless pedals and shoes. However, those can wait for a while if cash is an issue.
