The first piece of safety equipment that everyone thinks of is probably “Big Bike Helmet”. But in reality, in addition to this piece of equipment, there are many other riding aids that help enhance safety. They also come in beautiful and attractive designs. They also enhance your personality because they have a sleek design that is suitable for riding.
Let’s take a look at the safety items that bikers should have on their bikes to ensure maximum safety while riding.
Checklist: 5 safety driving devices
[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”11756″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]
1. Helmet
Helmets are the number one safety accessory that every biker must have, whether it’s a general design helmet or a big bike helmet that’s specifically designed. Because in addition to helping to increase confidence in safety, it also helps reduce the chances of death from accidents very well.
However, choosing the right type of helmet is another factor that helps to enhance safety. There are 4 types of helmets available on the market as follows:
- Half face helmet
- Open face helmet
- Full face helmet
- Modular helmet
2. Soft armor vest
The next piece of safety equipment that is often seen on the road is a protective jacket. It helps protect the torso from impact in the event of an accident very well. It also protects against dirt, stones on the road, pollution, and effectively protects against the sun while driving.
As for the level of safety protection of the jacket, it depends on the different usage. The most popular type of jacket among bikers that provides safety and is suitable for Thailand’s weather is the “fabric and leather” type.
3. Biker gloves
Next to the body, let’s move on to the palms, which are safety items like “biker gloves.” Since hands are one of the first organs that usually touch the ground when an accident occurs, gloves are designed to help prevent abrasions from debris on the road. They are also suitable for bikers who have a long-distance riding lifestyle. Buying a pair of gloves to use will help increase riding safety, prevent sweat on the palms from causing unforeseen accidents, and allow you to ride with peace of mind, without any incidents of your hands slipping off the handlebars.
Choosing the right riding gloves may require some investment because choosing materials that are strong enough to withstand impact, are durable and help prevent friction, and should be a tight size that fits the palm of the hand will help support riding and prevent injuries effectively.
4. Biker shoes
With this much protection, how can we ignore the lower part like the soles of the feet? Of course, shoes specifically for riding motorcycles are considered essential safety equipment for long-distance bikers because they will help enhance riding performance for agility and prevent injuries that may occur when riding for long periods of time.
The difference between general shoes and shoes designed specifically for riding is that the materials used in production are strong and durable, with a design that supports riding appropriately, including metal covers to protect the toes and heels, as well as a clutch lever protection plate that helps protect the shoes from abrasions that may occur from shifting up the gear, etc. Biker shoes available on the market can be purchased in 2 styles as follows:
Long boots: For riding a sportbike on the racetrack or riding at high speed. Not popular for riding on the road. Due to its rather large size, it is not very agile.
Ankle Boots: Motorcycle riding boots designed for general use, both on the road and for long-distance road trips. They are more flexible and comfortable to wear.
5. Motorcycle trunk box
Although not directly related to physical safety, a motorcycle box is one item that should be used. Because in addition to helping to store luggage tightly, it also makes riding more flexible without having to worry about bags or other luggage that are normally hung on the handlebars while riding. This allows you to ride safely throughout the journey, whether near or far.
