MANCHESTER, UNITED KINGDOM — (Marketwire) — 03/04/12 — It-s the time of the year when many motorcyclists around the country begin to take their bikes out of winter storage and hit the road again – but while many of them will be testing their mode of transport, a lot less of them will be checking their clothing. Today Swinton Bikes, a leading broker of , is urging bikers to ensure that their helmets and leathers are in good condition before setting off on their first journey of the year.
Buying new clothes is one of the best ways to guarantee the state of what is worn but this can also be very costly. A thorough check over any existing gear can make certain that it is suitable for use but if it-s not, users can also pay for specialist repairs. This not only saves on the cost of buying new, but also extends the life of what a rider may already have.
Another option is to take out equipment insurance – an option which Swinton Bikes provide. Motorcyclists can protect their equipment by opting for helmet and leathers insurance with their policy.
Whatever method motorcyclists choose though, it-s important to ensure that all of their safety equipment is in proper working order.
Antony Aronin, Head of Swinton said, “All bikers need to make sure that their clothing is in tip-top condition before they start riding this year, whether they pay for repairs, buy new gear or check it all over. Doing this can maximise a rider-s safety and it is of vital importance that this is something that they do not ignore.”
