Hi im in abit of dilema ive got around 600 pounds atm and this is to be spent on my insurance / cbt for a 125 ts 125x and mot etc.

My dilema is that im not sure what to buy obviously i need a helmet etc , but im not going to be entering any enduros etc yet and not for a long time im not experienced enough but i will be green laning and forest running etc. with a group of friends.

Im not sure what to buy or how much to spend

Ive found an AX-7 chrome helmet down from 170 quid to 80 so im definately getting that

but in regards to boots im not sure what to spend
goggles ill also purchase
but the realm problem lies with either getting a jersey and matching trousers i dont know what there good for either racing or what or should i get an enduro jacket im just realy not sure what to get. I also get an extra 200 ish pound a month income.

Any advice helpful

P.S i looked through racespecs range and found myself all the bits and bobs i wanted for 400 quid but it sounded abit to much.

If you're going to be falling off and rolling around in the mud, then knee and hip armour are a must imo, as is obviously a decent pair of boots for reducing the risks of ankle damage. They're almost more important than a jacket I'd say, considering upper arms are a lot better at taking side impacts than hips and knees.
