Motorcycle safety

Though the motorcycle season here in Michigan is coming to a close, I still think of the safety of the riders. Especially since Jack's sister and her boyfriend ride and go on long trips with their bike.

I found a wonderful site Biker Hiway , it has some wonderful gear for the biker. From Motorcycle jackets to Motorcycle boots, to even safety gear for the bike itself. motorcycle%20helmets'>Helmets are a key to safety also and they have a wide range of those also.

The one thing with motorcycles is trying to make it very visible to someone in an automobile. I like the bikes that have the blinking brake lights or more than one turn signal. You can not say that you did not see it with those on them. Biker Hiway has anything and everything you could think of for you and your bike to make yourself more visible to other motorists.

They have reflective strips to put on yourself and your bike, they have helmets, and apparel. They also have head lights, blinking brake lights, turn signals on mirrors. All the stuff that makes for a safer and enjoyable ride.

At this time of year we also have to be thinking of the deer running and the chance of hitting one while on the road. My uncle knows first hand that a motorcycle and deer are not a good thing. He hit one with his bike and was basically in a full body cast for months. Biker Hiway also has deer whistles that are not your normal whistles. I know my uncle wishes he would have had some of those on his bike many years ago.

With a son and his love of all things mechanical, I can see him being a biker dude when he gets older, so this site will be a great resource for all his needs for motorcycle safety.
