4 Motorcycle Upgrades For Newbies

​It's natural to imagine that your first motorbike will be wonderful in every aspect. It's only normal to have that reaction because, after all, a motorbike is an extension of the rider themselves. Modifications on bikes may be particularly challenging, but the appropriate modifications can do wonders for a motorbike.

Motorcycle Modifications for New Riders

1. Enhancement of the Windshield
   The windshield protects you from various potential dangers, such as flying insects, pelting rain, and unexpected rocks thrown by other vehicles. It also acts as a barrier between you and the road, the windshield on your bike must be strong and free of debris. 
   
   Windshields on motorbikes are important because they guide the airflow around the motorcycle and may cause drag if not installed and positioned correctly.
   
   
2. Guards for the Engines
   If the bike is involved in an accident or flips over, the engine guards will protect the engine. If the motorbike were to fall over, it would consist of a massive bar of steel that would keep the engine from coming into contact with the ground. Additionally, if the bike were to fall on top of you, it would prevent your legs from being crushed by the bike. 
   
   
3. Tires
   The quality of the ride and the motorcycle's handling are both affected by tires. Choose a set appropriate for your motorbike and the area in which it is used. It will allow you to ride your bike more confidently on a slippery surface with new, more ground-clearance tires.
   
   
4. Turn Signals or LED Light Kits
   One of the simplest ways to make your motorcycle glow (literally) is with an aftermarket LED lighting package, which may also improve your visibility at night. Since these kits are designed to replace the factory 4.5" halogen driving lights on most bikes, installing them is usually a simple task. Flush turn signals need expert installation, but many vehicle owners consider it a worthwhile investment.

Conclusion
When modifying your motorbike, you don't have to make massive, life-altering adjustments; keeping things simple is often the best way to see meaningful results, especially the first time.
