I don't know about you but I would rather wear the correct gear then lose the skin off my arms, legs, and face because I wanted to look "cool".
Gear can be replaced....Your body can't
Considering a crash even at 5 mph on a motorcycle can kill you, safety gear is a necessity. Safety gear is to protect you from collisions and scraping.
Everyone (rider and passenger). It is the only article of gear required.
To aid in preventing motorcycle injuries there are many safety measures that can be taken. From simply taking motorcycle handling and driving classes, to wearing a helment and other protective gear. The most important measure that needs to be taken is for the driver to always be aware of their surroundings and reacting as needed.
Traveling by motorcycle can be an adventure not soon forgotten. The air in your face, the sun on your back and the miles rolling away under the tires of your motorcycle make for a great, relaxing vacation getaway regardless of the chosen destination. One set of items that will make long road trips easier for the rider is motorcycle camping gear. This lightweight gear comes with a variety of options including tents, sleeping pad or bag and cooking items all sized properly and easily stored as well as transported by motorcycle. Choosing the correct camping gear for your motorcycle road trip can make all the difference in your vacation plans and allow you to arrive at your destination rested, relaxed and ready for adventure!
Always watch where you want the motorcycle to go. always use your safety gear e.g. helmet, riding glove, jacket etc.
Some can be started in this gear, yes.
what re the characteristics of good safety gear
If you cannot shift into first gear on a motorcycle, you should not ride one.. So says the spida. But if you must, click down and you are in first. 2,3,4,5 are all up after that. neutral is a fragile click in between 1 & 2.
It depends. If the user has experience, wears safety gear, follows basic rules, doesn't try anything they're not capable of doing safely, and doesn't use a motorcycle with too many ccs, it should be fairly safe.
You should pick up a standard set of safety goggles at your local home depot.
Plenty.
most likely you can find it in the motorcycle store
