🏍️ Your tyres are the only part of your motorcycle in contact with the road. Make them count.
Whether you're commuting, touring, or enjoying Somerset's fantastic riding roads, your tyres play a vital role in braking, cornering and maintaining grip in all weather conditions.
âś… Check tyre pressures regularly
âś… Inspect tread depth and overall condition
âś… Look out for cuts, cracks, bulges or embedded objects
âś… Replace worn or damaged tyres promptly
A well-maintained tyre can make the difference between staying in control and losing grip when it matters most.
Before every ride, take a few moments to give your tyres a quick check. It's a simple habit that could help keep you safe on every journey.
