Scooter Accessories You Need
Congrats on purchasing your brand-new scooter! These unique vehicles are affordable, fast, and incredibly convenient to travel with, making them a great fit for anyone looking to commute around town or cruise city streets. However, before you take your first scooter ride, be sure to check out our article below on important accessories you’ll need to ensure you have a safe and fun first trip.
Safety Gear
Because scooters are open vehicles, they don’t provide much protection in the event of a crash. While scooters are considered to be safer than your average car or motorcycle, we still recommend investing in some durable protective gear. We recommend purchasing a riding jacket, riding boots, and a helmet that’s been approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation.
Anti-Theft Locks
To ensure your scooter isn’t stolen, we strongly recommend purchasing at least two different types of anti-theft locks for your model. You’ll have your choice of chains, cables, folding, disc, grip, and U-locks, just be sure to purchase two different types of lock to ensure that if a thief successfully breaks one, they won’t be able to remove the other.
Storage Box
Scooters don’t offer much in terms of storage space. While a backpack is a good option for carrying all of your important day-to-day items around, if you want to store anything on your scooter you’ll need to invest in a handy storage box. This can be used to keep important items—such as your anti-theft locks, vehicle registration, and emergency tools—that need to be kept with your vehicle at all times.
