I'm looking to invest in some gear for street riding, with the expectation that I'll be able to also use it for trackdays. I've never done a trackday, but hope to try 1 or 2 this year.
My current gear is Alpinestars GP R leather jacket (with zip for pants), Scorpion full face helmet (DOT/Snell), and short Teknic leather gloves (I assume these won't meet requirements). I'm already planning to buy the Alpinestars GP Plus leather pants, and have been looking at Alpinestars boots (SMX-5 or SMX Plus) and gloves (way too many models to know what I should be looking at).
So, will any over the ankle motorcycle specific boot be acceptable?
Do gloves need to be gauntlet style or would the "mid length" that cover the wrist be ok?
Do I need a back protector?
Anything else I'm missing?
And recommendations for street/budget minded?
Thanks for any help.
