Protect your head and eyes!
Wear a helmet
Whether they are required in your area or not, a well-fitted helmet is an important part of any rider's gear. You'll find that a helmet can prevent a huge number of injuries both small and large and in the event of an accident, they will reduce the extent of damage to the head and brain a great deal. Look for helmets that have a DOT label, meaning that it is a helmet that has met federal regulations. Anyone who gets on your motorcycle should have a helmet as well. Remember that once a motorcycle helmet has suffered an impact that it should be replaced.
Shield your eyes
There are plenty of motorcycles that don't have windshields and if that describes yours, look for ways to protect your eyes. You may be dealing with dirt, rocks, insects and other things that might come flying through the air at you, and even the wind can cause you to tear up and fog up your vision. Look for goggles that have high quality plastic lenses or a helmet that has a good face shield. You will be looking at material that should be made out of shatter proof material, as well as being ventilated in order to keep your breath or your body heat from fogging it up. Remember that you should only ever use tinted shields during the day; during the night, clear shields will give you the visibility that you need.
