      Security, both on the road and storing a ride at home. Do not skimp. I installed three HomePods in my garage and 4 foot long lights from Harbor Freight in my garage. I can control the lights and the speakers from my phone or my desk computer. I blast music at night especially; that's when the men in black with backpacks make their rounds. Money well spent. Tool boxes in the garage are little more than potable junk drawers; put up steel pegboards. There's a company in Georgia that makes them in their state. I even got a customized one with a PR flag from them. Tools at hand make the work flow faster and easier. Wear some kind of skull cap; it will keep thee interior of your helmet clean. Always hang your helmet from the left side of your bike so it doesn't ding the paint. You do not need fancy name-brand "lubes" for chain maintenance. It's highly likely that your bike chain has an o-ring. Clean the chain with WD-40 sprayed on disposable shop towels, meticulously clean chain and sprockets. Chain lube is already retain by the o-ring, so spray soon-to-gunk spray lube is just additional work later and the lube is unnecessary.

    The thing that amazed me the most is that "get your license" is seen as an unexpected expense. I mean, if riding without a license is so prevalent, your countries government really needs to either evaluate the laws a bit better or make the punishment for riding without a license more severe.

      Riding without a motorcycle license/endorsement is not that prevalent in the USA. However, new riders may not take into account the cost associated with the motorcycle endorsement. Thanks for watching.

    Don’t compromise on equipment! Good helmet, good jacket, gloves, boots, etc! Do your research and get the best you can!

    We recently purchased a New 2024 H-D Tri_Glide....Part of the deal was they included all the Upgrades we wanted at a discounted price....looking closer at it we found that we actually are paying less monthly for the package than if we didn't have the extras included.......Interesting....
