ATV & Motorcycle Safety Gear
If you ride motocross, enduro or go on ATV trips, it is the gear on your body that takes the hit if you crash. In this category we bring together protective gear for motorcycle and ATV, from helmets to jerseys, protectors and liner kits, for both adult and youth riders.
Helmet and protectors go together
The gear in this category is designed to protect you if you crash on a motorcycle or ATV. Under motorcycle helmets you choose protection for your head, while motorcycle protective gear covers jerseys, protectors and accessories for the body. How much protection an item provides depends on the specific product. So read the specifications before you choose.
How to choose the right gear
- Riding type: Touring, track and off-road riding place different demands on ventilation, abrasion resistance and freedom of movement.
- Fit: The gear should fit snugly without pinching. Many items come in several sizes, e.g. the Answer Syncron Raceday Jersey from XS to 2XL and in youth sizes.
- Side and size: Certain parts, e.g. liner kits from EVS, are sold as separate left and right versions. Check both before you order.
- Approval: Whether a helmet or protector is approved to a particular standard, e.g. E-mark, depends on the product. This must be checked for the specific part number.
In this category you will find brands such as Answer, Gaerne, Speed and Strength, Bikers Choice and FIRSTGEAR.
Maintenance and replacement
Clean your gear according to the manufacturer's instructions and let it dry before you put it away. Moisture and dirt can wear on fabric, seams and padding. A helmet is typically recommended to be replaced after a heavy impact, even if the damage is not visible. The same applies to protectors with cracks or worn straps. If you also drive cars on track, you will find gear for the driver's seat in our other safety equipment.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if a motorcycle helmet is approved for road use?
It depends on the specific helmet. Look for approval markings, e.g. E-mark, in the product description or on the helmet, and check it for the exact part number. You cannot assume that all helmets in the category are road-approved.
Why are some liner kits sold in a left and a right version?
Some parts are typically shaped for one side of the body and are therefore sold separately, e.g. the liner kits from EVS. Check both side and size, and make sure the part fits the gear you already have.
Is a jersey enough protection?
A jersey is typically a lightweight riding shirt and on its own offers only limited protection in a fall. Many riders wear it together with separate protectors. What suits you depends on the product and on your riding.
Can I use a car helmet on a motorcycle or ATV?
It depends on the helmet's approval and intended use. Helmets for car motorsport and helmets for motorcycles are often approved to different standards. So always check what the specific part number is approved for.
