Allstate Insurance recommends motorcyclists Get Ready For Riding Season.  In Florida it is always "riding season". So these recommendations are always useful.

Give your bike a "once over" by:

• Testing the lights, brakes, and turn signals.
• Checking the oil and fuel levels.
• Making sure the mirrors are positioned correctly.
• Checking the cables to make sure they are not worn or frayed.
• Lubing the chain and adjusting it according to the manufacturer's specs.
• Taking a rider-training course to brush up on your skills.

In Share the Road Safely, the U.S. Department of Transportation provides safety tips for:

• Watch the No-Zones - A vehicle's blind spots, particularly trucks, are dangerous places for motorcyclists.
• Drive to Survive - Since motorcycles are the smallest vehicles on the roads, the U.S. Department of Transportation reminds motorcyclists to be cautious and pay attention to signals and brake lights of other vehicles.
• Watch your speed - Motorcycles accelerate faster than other vehicles.  Watching your speed is a very important part of motorcycle riding.
