Motorcycle Accessories for Commuting Safely
Invest in quality accessories to boost your safety and motorcycle riding experience. Here are a few items to buy before embarking on your next outing.
Visibility Gear
We often recommend that our customers buy high-visibility gear to help other motorists notice them even in low-light conditions. A neon-colored vest or a bright-colored helmet can go a long way in keeping you safe on the road. So, get these items and enjoy safe and stress-free rides.
Gloves
Next, you want to buy a pair of well-fitting gloves to keep you safe and comfortable when riding your motorcycle. Weather conditions like the scorching sun and bitter winds can impede your ability to manage your bike’s controls. Conversely, a pair of gloves can help maintain your grip and make you ride your model safely.
Neck Buff or Balaclava
Your riding jacket and helmet can’t protect your neck, which remains exposed to the winds and debris when riding a motorcycle. This can make you uncomfortable and unsafe. To prevent this, wear turtlenecks on every ride or get a neck buff or balaclava for extra protection. You can pick a vibrant color that matches your personal style.
Riding Boots
You want to keep your feet safe and comfortable when riding a motorcycle. That’s why you should get tailored motorcycle boots to protect your feet from weather conditions and spray kicked up by other vehicles on the road.
When buying riding boots, pick a model with sturdy toes and soles, preferably those that go above your ankles. They can offer the traction you need to stay safe and maneuver your controls efficiently.
We hope you can use these accessories to make your motorcycle rides safer and more fun. For more ideas or to upgrade your bike to the latest model, visit Timms Harley-Davidson® of Anderson. We are in Anderson, SC, so reach out today.
