Gearing Up for Cooler Rides: Fall Motorcycle Insurance and Maintenance Tips

As the Texas heat gives way to cooler fall temperatures, many motorcycle enthusiasts look forward to scenic rides and crisp air. At Alan Henry Insurance Agency, we know that preparing your bike and your insurance for the season is key to enjoying safe, worry-free adventures. Here are our top tips for gearing up your motorcycle and coverage for fall in Texas.

Why Fall Motorcycle Insurance Matters

With changing weather and road conditions, fall brings unique risks for riders. Reviewing your motorcycle insurance helps ensure you have the right protection for the season ahead. Our team can help you:

• Assess your current policy to confirm it meets Texas requirements and your personal needs.
• Explore options for comprehensive and collision coverage, which can help cover weather-related damage or accidents.
• Consider additional coverage for accessories, custom parts or roadside assistance, especially useful during unpredictable fall weather.

Essential Fall Maintenance Tips

Proper maintenance is just as important as the right insurance. Before you hit the road this fall, we recommend the following:

• Checking tire pressure and tread, as cooler temperatures can affect both
• Inspecting brakes and lights for optimal performance in shorter daylight hours
• Changing oil and fluids to keep your engine running smoothly
• Cleaning and lubricating your chain or belt drive
• Testing your battery, since cold snaps can drain power quickly

Motorcycle Safety Tips for Fall Rides

Staying safe on Texas roads means adapting to seasonal changes. Keep these tips in mind:

• Dress in layers and wear reflective gear for visibility and warmth.
• Watch for wet leaves, early morning frost and wildlife crossing the road.
• Allow extra stopping distance, as roads may be slicker than in summer.
