Summary:
- You can improve vastly as a rider by sharpening key riding skills—like hard stops, smooth acceleration, and precise cornering.
- A seat cover can help your body stay planted in the saddle during sudden bursts of speed or hard stops by using materials that provide superior traction. Japanese synthetic suede and tec-grip marine-grade vinyl are two excellent examples.
- Proper body positioning, especially knee grip, can allow you to corner with more confidence. Using tank grips can help you maintain better lean angles in the twisties.
- Luimoto uses synthetic suede and high-quality marine-grade vinyl in a wide range of model-specific seat covers and tank grips. Adding these to your bike can help you develop these key riding skills faster and get more out of every ride.
A few key skills distinguish a competent rider from a truly skilled one. Mastering techniques like hard stops, smooth acceleration, and precise cornering allows you to ride more adventurously and get the most adrenaline possible on two wheels.
