My new gear

Based on everyone recommendations on equipment I went on a shopping spree this morning.  As you can see I am more interested in price than I am in any particular brand, got most of it through closeouts or sales.  Now that I am broke, all I can hope is that I actually enjoy riding dirt bikes and use the stuff.  Maybe I should have ridden a bike once before I spent all that money?  Well on the other hand now that I am divorced there is no one to *** at me; so who cares.

EVS BB1 Ballistic Kidney Belt
Axxis Jersey
Camel back classic Hydration
EVO Race collar
XCR Socks

LBZ Pants
Answer Roost deflector

Don't worry, you'll love riding the bike, and even if you don't, you can always sell the gear on Ebay to recoup some of your money.

ps - I also have the Tech 3's.  I've used them 4-5 times and they're still in good shape.

Me too. For most stuff. Instead of spending 250ish on Alpinestar boots to match my bike(black and red) I went with Thor Quadrants...100, in gray and brown. Cheap, and good.

Sounds good man. You may be broke, but it will be well worth it!

glad to see you get some good gear at a decent price.  Sorry to hear about the divorce though.  You're never a free man once you marry, especially with kids involved.  Divorce adds more burden than before IMO.

My son has gotten almost two seasons on his.  They look pretty beat up but the soles have held up (as in not come off) and the latches still work well.

They are getting worn where the footpegs ride; so he is looking to get a new pair of boots in the spring.
