Protecting Your Motorcycle During the Wet Autumn Months
As the autumn season sets in across the UK, riders face the challenges of wetter weather, falling leaves, and fluctuating temperatures. While this time of year can still bring some great riding days, it also brings an increased risk of water damage, corrosion, and paintwork deterioration if your motorcycle is left exposed. To keep your pride and joy in top condition, investing in the right motorcycle cover is essential.
The Dangers of Autumn Weather for Motorcycles
The wetter autumn months can take a toll on your bike in several ways:
-
Increased rainfall and damp conditions: Prolonged exposure to moisture can lead to rust forming on metal components, including the exhaust, chain, and frame.
-
Falling leaves and debris: When wet, leaves can stick to paintwork and release tannins and sap that cause staining and corrosion.
-
Temperature changes: Colder nights followed by milder days can create condensation, which builds up under poor-quality covers and leads to mould and mildew.
These factors highlight the importance of using a quality breathable motorcycle cover designed for the UK’s unpredictable autumn climate.
