Visibility Gear
When you hit the road, you want to stand out from other motorists on the road. It's unfortunate, but many drivers don't pay as much attention as they should. They text and drive or engage in other unsafe behaviors. Visibility gear increases your chances of being seen, which decreases the chances of a car getting too close for comfort! Simply throw on outerwear that is brightly colored to be more easily seen on the road.
Windscreen
Not many motorcycles come with a built-in windscreen, but this can be an easy upgrade to improve your ride. A windscreen helps block the wind and increases rider endurance. You'll be able to stay on the road for longer! It can also help redirect water around you if it rains, so you can stay more comfortable and dry.
Hearing Protection
If you ride your motorcycle at 40 miles per hour, you’re facing permanent hearing loss! The combination of the road noise, motorcycle engine, and the wind gets to levels high enough at that speed to cause irreversible damage. You need a form of hearing protection, such as disposable earplugs.
