ATGATT: All The Gear, All The Time. Get quality gear, suitable for the rides you want to do (doesn’t make sense to buy expensive Goretex gear if you don’t expect to ride in the rain regularly for example) and wear it, no matter how long your ride is.
Get some frame sliders or so for when you almost inevitably drop your bike.
Most motorcycle accidents happen because the rider made a mistake. Common causes:
Learn to be a better rider. No matter how much you ride, there will always be some bad habits that sneak into your riding style. Take a refresher course every now and then, so they can point them out to you.
Learn to ride more defensively, and make yourself seen (Fortnine’s YT video on invisibility is a good one for example).
Last but not least… Watch some crash compilations on YouTube, because those allow you to learn from other people’s mistakes. You will probably make some of those mistakes as well.
