Improving Visibility when Driving Hayabusa

Many of you may have been in an accident because you were unable to see the other vehicle or because the other vehicle is unable to your bike. Here are a few tips which will help improve your visibility when driving the Hayabusa

a) Make sure you are able to view the driver of the vehicle when driving your Hayabusa. Always be sure of the presence of other vehicle and never assume anything.

b) When driving the Hayabusa make sure you leave enough distance between your bike and other vehicles. This will give you space to maneuver your bike in case of emergency.

c) When overtaking the vehicle in front of you, make sure that you are aware of the approaching vehicle from the other side.

d) If you are riding the Hayabusa in groups then make sure there is a safe distance between you and the other riders. This will help maximize your visibility.

e) Black Hayabusa looks cool, but tends to blend with the surroundings especially during nights. It is therefore safe to drive a bright colored bike or white colored bikes to save you from accidents, especially at night.

f) It is always better to wear a reflective gear when driving the Hayabusa. Today you will find apparels that come with reflective finish which is evident only at night.

g) Riders can also use put reflective tapes on their helmets to improve your visibility when driving the Hayabusa.

h) It will be prudent on your part to use hand signals when turning. This will help improve your visibility and help you take effective control of your vehicle

i) It has been proved that it is easier to estimate the vehicle speed when 2 lights are spaced apart. I suggest you install running lights on your Hayabusa to make the busa more visible
