It is spring in Arizona and with spring comes amazing weather that is sure to get motorcycle riders out on the roads. Whether it’s a ride around town or a road trip to Sedona, being outside and riding a motorcycle is a great way to enjoy a beautiful day. But don’t forget that riding a motorcycle can be dangerous and bikers need to exercise extreme safety.

Before your ride, make sure your thoroughly check your motorcycle. This is especially important if you do not ride your bike on a daily basis. You need to check your lights, turn signals, brakes, mirrors, chain, and cables to make sure they’re all working correctly and up to the manufacturer’s specifications.
This advice may seem like a no-brainer for experienced motorcyclists; however, there are many new riders, of all ages, on the road.
You might also think about getting some new quality gear. Does your helmet need an upgrade? Do you need boots to cover your ankles? Frayed gloves? Try some new durable, non-slip gloves for extra safety.
