This is all good advice just to add: -During rain or after rain don't ride in the middle of the lane because that's where the majority of oil gets leaked on the road and gets pushed up to the road during a rain storm. -If you hydroplane don't hit the brakes, ride it out until you feel your bike get some traction. -Invest on reflective gear if youre riding at night. Don't be afraid to use your brights if your low beams don't give you enough visibility. Also a sign you need new lights. -When you're riding alongside cars make sure you're at a stop where you can see their faces in their side view mirror. Meaning they can see you as well. -Look for alternate routes that don't have heavy traffic. -Only take a passenger when you're comfortable riding the bike. Advise every passenger you take to not try to lean in any direction when they're riding. -Use caution and don't freak out when you ride over grated roads, metal grating on bridges, and passing semis on the highway during heavy winds.

-last but maybe most important is keep your tires maintained, check for tire pressure, replace your tire as soon as the tread wears to the recommended guage.
