Motorbike Safety Tips

Posted by Sam Hill on Tuesday, August 9, 2022 In : Motorbike Safety 
For some, there are few experiences that compare to hitting the open road on a motorcycle.

Safe Motorbike Riding

Posted by Dave Harris on Monday, January 10, 2022 In : Motorbike Safety 
We’ve all heard it – “there are only two kinds of riders, those who have crashed and those who are going to.”  On an average day, about 222 motorcycle crashes occur in the UK. About 184 of those cause injury, with 10 of those being fatal – a very scary statistic.



No matter where you ride or what you ride, staying safe is the top priority. Since starting my motorcycling days 40 years ago aboard a brand new 1974 Honda CL200T, I’ve made some observations and learned some things that h...

Defensive Motorcycle Riding

Posted by Spartan Motorcycle Couriers on Friday, August 13, 2021 In : Motorbike Riding Skills 
Way back in 1951, there were 4.2 million licensed vehicles using UK roads. This has now risen to over a staggering 35.6 million licensed vehicles.



Since then, road networks have of course increased and road condition and safety have also improved. Some 184,800 miles of road were available in 1951 compared to 245,800 miles as of now. However, congestion is rapidly increasing due to road networks being unable to sustain the growth of traffic as the demand for vehicles increases.

Posted by Janice Long on Wednesday, October 14, 2020 In : Motorcycle Safety 
Here are five common-sense tips to keep your bad self upright during the bitter months, assuming first that you have had your machine properly winterised.
