Can i use my street riding gear for dirt biking?

ok i get that i couldn't use the jacket and kevlar jeans but could i use my boots and helmet instead of buying ones for dirt biking? my boots are Alpinestars - S-MX R Vented Boots, and my helmet is a Bell - Star Helmet.Can i use my street riding gear for dirt biking?
I wouldn't. Ya will look like a goon if you are going to a track. Plus you gotta realize the gear is made totally different for both sports...I dunno man...I would definetly pick up some mx gear or you will look silly...not to mention burn up, plus the boots, helmet, etc are all set up for different things.

I'll put it this way...would you wear mx stuff on a street bike....nope. ;)
You could use it but it is definitely not recommended. Street gear is more for stopping damage from asphalt and scrapes and can be ruin by dirt.Can i use my street riding gear for dirt biking?
you can...i wouldnt recommend it.

they are two different things for a reason.

you should get ridding pants though.
Yes, you can use them if you want to.Can i use my street riding gear for dirt biking?
It kinda depends if you're gonna try out some "stuff" on the dirtbike, if you are, you probably want to get dirtbike gear..



But if you're just gonna ride then you can probably do it. I'd get a deflector and a helmet designed for dirt though.
