How do Motocross racers use math?

Physics and Math are related. Motocross is just the application of Physics as it applies to earth, motorcycles and people. The angle at which the tires of a motorcycle meet the earth is the single most important example of how math can help a rider to maintain maximum traction. Traction and therefore comfort lead to a higher speed. When a rider understands why he or she slows down, they can overcome their fear and conquer it. The understanding of traction and balance are tied to the application of math and physics. pffft its not just give the bike gas Also how fast you can go into a corner and come out of it.

What is the difference between a motocross goggle and snowboarding goggle?

Usually not much, unless you refer to so-called fullface Moutain Bike helmets with a "bumper" that protrudes in front of the chin to protect it.

Usually a moutain bike helmet has a visor which sometimes can be removed. Reasoning on having a visor? Mountain biking usually meant going into the mountains on a single track and going in and out of the shadows from trees.

So this means usually road bikes don't have visors. Road bikes put your body posture more prone so if you had a visor your vision would be partially blocked.

Road helmets also more aerodynamically streamlined. As far as vents go, they usually have more but are smaller which helps with speed again.

How safe is motocross racing for young boys?

If you couldn't get hurt, then dirt biking wouldn't be fun anymore. My add to the previous reply... It is safe when a child races within his ability with proper training from a qualified individual. Racing in a competitive class as a novice is where I have seen most kids get hurt due to lack of experience and preparation. Too often a parent buys a 12 year old an 85cc bike and puts him in competition after only a few practices. That is scary.

How much is a KTM 125SX?

How much to enter Motocross racing events?

MotoX racing is much more expensive than just riding, of course. To race, here is a list of expenses. I live in the Midwest, and am giving averages. 1. Gear (buying gear right now is a great time, as 2005 gear is on close-out at many retailers) For jersey, pants, helmet, goggles, boots, gloves, chest protector...the average is $450-$600+. If you are committed to the sport, spend the extra money for good boots. 2. The bike (too many types to give an estimate here) Along with the bike, you need a bike stand. Five gallon buckets turned upside down are great, and cheap. 3.AMA card $39 Sanctioned races require you to have an AMA membership. You can purchase the membership at your first race. Your card will be mailed to you. This is an annual fee. 4. District card. The country is divided into districts. Here, in district 16, a card is $15 annually. 5. Per race registration is $20. Special events like Arenacross are more. 6. Tracks will charge you to get in the gate even if you race. The average is $7-10 (plus camping fee of $5-$10 at most tracks if you spend the night before race day) 7. gas. With gas prices what they are, obviously this needs to be in any racer's budget. 8. bike maintance. This varies greatly. Upkeep and maintance are major expenses. Overall, motocross is not a cheap sport. Here are some of my suggestions for cutting costs. If you are a newbie to the sport, and visit your local motocross supply store, be bold and ask for a discount. The mark-up is outrageous and most privately owned dealers will give customers a minimum of 10% off before you even prove your racing ability to them. If you are talented, and place well overall in a series, seek more substancial sponsorship. Many tracks will offer cash payment, or free or reduced race fees to racers who help out on race day. You may flag, water the track, or score, and you will be compensated in some way. If you have a parent or spouse who helps, they will be compensated also. It will most likely be a free or ruduced race fee for you. Pack your own food...always. Make friends at the track, and try to travel together to share expenses. Hope this helps. Good Luck!! hello i just have somthing to add the best website i found for looking up gear was www.denniskirk.com... i got all my gear for under 200 dollars..i have a monster energy kx 100 2002...i only got it for 1500..pre raced..it runs like a top..its good to find deals like that.
