best bike helmet brand image
Timmeh
I really want a kawasaki bike, its my favorite type, but I heard honda is the better brand and is more reliable, is this true? What CC dirt bike would be good for me?Ive never ridden before and I'm growing. What gear would I need? What are good brands for the gear I need? Is thor a good helmet brand? About how much would all this cost me? Sorry for all the questions but I really would like to know the answers, thanks.
Answer
Kawasaki's are good bikes, I have owned dozens of them, matter of fact - I own one right now.
Honda's are extremely reliable - if you are talking about their road bikes or the older XL/XR series, yes that statement would be true.
Do you plan on just riding, racing or both?
If you plan on just riding a 150cc 4-stroke (or similar sized engine) would be good for you.
If you plan on racing, then you will need a 85cc 2-stroke.
All modern motocross bikes are about equal, you can do a search for the latest "shootout".

Gear: SNELL approved helmet, goggles, long sleeve shirt, long pants and riding boots are the minimum you will need. Gloves, padded riding jersey, shoulder pads with chest protector and armored riding pants are additional that are not required, but highly recommend.
If you can afford new gear, by all means buy it. If you cannot, you have several options.
Used bikes: Ebay, Craigslist, BikeFinds and CycleTrader.
Used gear: Ebay, Craigsllist, flea markets and yard sales.
Bare minimum you will need $500 for a used bike and used gear. I have purchased used bikes off of Ebay and Craigslist for under $500. I have purchased boots at garage sales for $25. If you look hard and long enough, you will find what you need at very reasonable prices. It might not be the latest, greatest and new, but it will get done what you need done. Example: new Alpinestar boots - $375. Yard sale Thor boots - $25. Brand new Honda CRF 100R - $2,800. 1998 Honda XR100 - $350 Craigslist.
The best helmets are Arai and Shoei, but you won't be able to afford them on your budget. Look at HJC. They have new SNELL approved helmets at under $150.
