Handy Tips

1.Side stand pucks for stability of parking your motorbike on soft ground are really useful but retrieving them can be awkward.
Tie a piece of elastic to the puck and make a loop on the other end then  loop over the left hand grip. Next time you set off pull up your sidestand  and then pull up the puck using the elastic, remove the other end from the hand grip and put in your pocket.  Don't over stretch the elastic or the puck it might fly up and hit you!!

2. Don't have a puck...then squash a drinks can...remember to recycle when you have finished with it.

3. Most of my minor injuries I have incurred when falling off  my bike have involved footpegs digging into the side of my leg above my boot and below my knee guards.  I found motocross leg guards solved that problem, they strap around the lower leg from the boot to over the knee.  I use them with integral knee armour that is hinged.  This help covers the area most at risk from minor injuries from brake/gear/footpegs.
