Tired of the rat race of today’s society? Want to just get away? For some people, riding a motorcycle is soothing and relaxing. It’s you, the bike and the wind in your face. Before you head out, you need to have some of the appropriate motorcycle gear with you. You want to have your arms covered, full fingered gloves, long pants, boots, and your helmet and motorcycle goggles. The only one listed here that is a state law in every state is the motorcycle goggles, you must have some kind of eye protection in every state and that makes sense.
There are many different types of motorcycle goggles out there to choose from. If you’re looking for an era of days gone by, then the nostalgic leather motorcycle goggles are what your looking for. They may be called leather motorcycle goggles, but it does not matter whether your flying in a biplane, floating around in a hot air balloon or riding a motorcycle down a back country road, leather motorcycle goggles will help send you back in time. You are going to want top quality motorcycle goggles. Make sure they have polycarbonate lenses, top quality leather, and RX-able, so you can have your prescription lenses put in, and make sure you are getting 100% UV protection.
Other motorcycle gear to consider is to have a lightweight rain suit with you. You never know when it’s going to rain down on your parade. It’s always nice to have some cold weather motorcycle gear on you, like insulated riding gloves, leather chaps, and a leather motorcycle jacket are very important pieces of your motorcycle gear. Neoprene face masks are a very nice piece of motorcycle gear to have. With a neoprene face mask, you can even protect your face from the rain drops and cold weather. Available for purchase are full face and half face neoprene face masks.
Remember, you want to have total protection from the elements, your helmet, goggles, long sleeves, long pants, boots, and full fingered gloves. With the goggles, you don’t want wind and debris flying in from the sides and getting in your eyes. I have had debris get in my eyes while riding and it’s hard to even pull over on the side of the road when your trying to dig something out of your eyes. Make sure you have a tight seal around your eyes and you should be okay.
