Helmet - A helmet protects your head, and is the only thing that keeps you from a fatal head injury. It is supposed to break on impact. Only a good quality helmet should be bought. The jaw covered is the safest.

Brakes - Remember to check your brakes everytime you take your bike for a drive. Also remember to do this when you collect it from the garage. In the rainy season water goes into the shoes and brakes may not work - Drive slow. This may also happen at steep slopes -don't speed up at the slopes.

Air pressure - always remember to check the pressure in the tyres. It is especially important to keep the correct tyre pressure when going on a long drive. This helps you to travel safely on rough terrain. There is also less wear 'n' tear for both the tyres and the bike, and it gives more fuel efficiency.
