Don’t let insects spoil your summer ride
There’s little better in life than getting out on two wheels in nice Summer weather. From scooters to the latest sports bike, it’s a great time to enjoy yourself and definitely beats sitting in a hot car stuck in traffic.
It’s also a time insects and bugs seem to enjoy, especially as the sun starts to go down in the evening. Nothing is quite as irritating as struggling to see through your visor as it collects anything flying around. Try and wipe it all off with a motorcycle glove and you’ll just end up smearing everything even more.
In fact, Carl Fogarty revealed in his autobiography that his dominant reign at Assen in World Superbikes, where he won every race but one between 1995 and 1999, was ended when a big fly splattered across his visor on the straight and he couldn’t see properly.
So whether you’re an outspoken racer, or enjoying a Sunday evening ride, invest in a Shift It Complete Helmet Care Kit, and avoid being bugged:
You get Helmet Cleaner, Polishing Cloths, Anti-Fog (Handy for Autumn/Winter), and Sanitiser (Which is great if you get a little sweaty in the hot weather!).
Even better, you also get a free Shift It Grime Buster pad, which is small and easy to use when you’re out on your bike. And the whole lot is just £12.50, when the normal price is £15.31.
