5 things you can not miss to embark on a Motorcycle Adventure Tour

by Arianna Lane marketing head

We all fantasize sometimes with the idea of leaving everything behind and embarking on a journey. The motorcycle is the ideal way to do it, because it is economical and allows us to travel with great independence, knowing, in turn, the most hidden recesses of the country.

If you are one of those who are really planning to transform that dream into a reality, you should know these tips to deal with the problems that may arise along the way.

Know what are the 5 basic things you should consider before embarking on an adventure. Then don't say we don't let you know.

1. How to organize luggage

One of the fundamental things before starting your trip is to distribute the weight of your bags to avoid imbalances on the motorcycle. This implies that you must calculate in advance the total weight of your cargo so that everything is balanced. Of course, weight is key, so you should only carry the indispensable minimum.

On the other hand, it is essential that all your luggage is waterproof and, if possible, that it is lined with some flame-retardant material. On long trips, it is possible that your bags are moving and approach the exhaust pipe, which could generate more than one problem.

2. What clothes to wear

As with luggage, balance is also essential when preparing clothes. The equation consists of carrying spare things, but never in excess. Ideally, in this case, wear old clothes that you don't mind staining, breaking and throwing.

Where you should not skimp is never in the underwear: it must be comfortable, elastic and as much as possible with the least amount of seams possible. Depending on the weather, you will also have to consider wearing thermal necks, shirts, and underpants.

However, the most important priority will be to wear a warm and waterproof jacket, 2 or 3 thick pants, and a pair of boots with a full tongue to prevent your socks from getting wet.

3. Essential: The documentation

You should have the registration certificate (RC) up to date (enabled for the displacement of your motorcycle) and the insurance papers (proof of the last payment), you must carry some more papers that will prevent complications from any eventuality.

4. Don't forget the planning

Many times it can be tempting to make the great << Motorcycle Diaries >> and embark on an adventure with no destination. However, we recommend you plan your route in advance to know the roads and distances that you will have to do during the tour.

A good tip is to start with the idea of not doing more than 300 kilometers per day, stopping every 150 kilometers to rest. For this, we recommend that before the trip you start to make 2-hour tours with your motorcycle to get used to the body.

5. Better safe than sorry

It is always better to be cautious, and nothing better for it than to assume that there will be setbacks for those who should be prepared. These are just some of the things that could happen to you:

Lost of the keys

One of those inconveniences that nobody believes can happen to him, and yet it is more common than it seems. In case of doubt, always carry a copy of the key on hand.

Fuel loss

If you are going to travel long distances in arid areas, keep in mind that the fuel hose can crack and cause your motorcycle to start losing petrol. It never hurts to carry a spare part to repair it at the moment and keep going.

Puncture

Probably the most common inconvenience of all and, without doubt, the easiest to solve. For this, it is best to carry a seal's punctures, which will allow us to continue traveling and endure until we reach the nearest service station.

Clutch/brake problems:

Another inconvenience that can affect your trip is that the brake and clutch cables are cut off. That is why we recommend carrying replacement cables to replace them in case of any eventuality.

Miscellaneous damage

While it is impossible to predict all the inconveniences that can happen to a motorcycle during a crossing, the important thing is to carry tools that allow us to quickly patch any fault and continue on the way to the nearest mechanic.
