Required Riding Gear

Discover the Required Riding Gear for Your Safest Motorcycle Journey.

Having the right type of motorcycle riding gear is essential to your RiderCourse experience:

Helmet

A helmet must be in good condition, a Department of Transportation sticker affixed and it must fit properly.

Eye Protection

Students must have suitable unbreakable eye protection

Gloves

Keep hands comfortable, functional and protected. Come in an infinite variety of all seasons. They must be full finger (no half finger gloves allowed and leather is preferred)

Jacket and Pants

Long sleeves and jeans that will resist abrasion and protect against sunburn, windburn, dehydration or hypothermia. Light colors or reflectivity increase a riders visibility. Baggy or wide leg jeans are not permitted due to the loose jeans getting caught on the pegs and controls. Sweatpants and leggings are also not permitted.

Boots

 Provide protection against foot and ankle injuries and give you a good grip on the pegs and roadway surfaces. Boots must cover 1 inch over the ankle bone for the RiderCourse. The ankle bone cannot be exposed.
