How can I stay cool while riding?
One of the most important things you should be focusing on when riding around on your motorcycle this summer is staying cool despite the heat. There are a few things you can do to make this possible, with the most important being to stay hydrated. Drinking water is the way in which you can allow your body to sweat, and cool itself off. The more water you drink, the better your body can remain regulated no matter how long your drive might be. In that same vein, you should be wearing safety gear that is properly ventilated, and avoid things like caffeine, as it can actually dehydrate you! We should also mention that it will always be a good idea to plan ahead and to maybe avoid the hotter days if you don't think you can handle the heat safely.
Where can I bring my bike for a tune-up?
Before you get started on your bike ride, you need to make sure that your motorcycle is in the condition it should be to get you where you need to go without any issues. That's where we come in! At Dick Scott's Freedom Powersports, you'll have access to the very best service center around Michigan that can help your motorcycle stay consistent and in excellent condition. We can help service brakes, the engine, windscreen, and even the tires, to make sure that this is the kind of summer that you will always remember. All you have to do is schedule an appointment today or even utilize the form that we are including below if you have more inquiries.
What safety elements should I be aware of during the summer?
Beyond staying hydrated and making sure your bike is up to the standards it should be, there are other safety concerns that you should be aware of every summer. We highly recommend that motorcyclists try to avoid, or at least be mindful of major holiday weekends. Whether it's Memorial Day weekend, the 4th of July, or Labor Day weekend, these are when people are driving the most, and therefore, that's when you could run into the most issues. We also want you to be mindful of teen drivers, as this is the time of year when more and more of them will be out on the road with you. Beyond that, always drive defensively, and eliminate as many distractions as possible.
