The Best Gear for Motorcycle Travels
by Editor on 12/19/16
For many motorcycle riders, taking your bike on the road is something that we love to do every day. But, for some of us, we also like to venture further out and take long distance trips on the back of our bikes so that we can better enjoy the journey. If you are interested in taking a motorcycle road trip, however, you will need to bring along some extra gear to help you stay on top of everything.
If you're used to taking quick daily trips, then you should pay attention. You don't want to be stuck out on the road and be unprepared. Here are five motorcycle parts and gear that you should take with you on your ride.
1. Tire Repair Kit: Even if you have high-quality Avon Tyres, things happen out on the road, and you can get a flat. If that happens, you may be outside of civilization, which means that you might have to wait for hours before you can expect any kind of assistance. Having a tire repair kit ensures that you aren't stranded.
2. Extra Clothes: If you ride all day long, then your clothes will invariably get wet and dirty. You don't want to put on nasty gear for your next leg, so bring along extra pants, gloves, and a jacket, so you aren't wearing sweaty clothes all day.
3. Battery Charger: Since we all use our phones for everything, you want to make sure that you keep your phone fully charged. After a full day of driving, however, you might be running on empty in more ways than one. Have a battery charger to keep your smartphone in peak condition, so you aren't stuck with a brick.
4. Tool Kit: Even with the best Yamaha bike parts, things still break down. When that happens, you should be able to perform some quick surgery on your ride so that you can make it to the next pit stop. Otherwise, you will be stranded on the side of the road.
5. Ear Plugs: Even if you don't use ear plugs on your daily ride (although you should), on long distance trips they are absolutely necessary. Unless you don't want to be able to hear anything when you arrive.
