There are a wide variety of motorcycles ranging from the city driver to the sporty and the long riding tourer. It can be difficult to choose especially when youโ€™ve seen how beautiful these machines are and you see the high tech features that the new model has.

 

Before your excitement gets the best of you, here are some questions to ask yourself in order to determine the type of motorcycle that fits your needs.

What is your experience level? โ€“ Those sport bikes on TV that are super-fast, look great and are fun to ride require an advanced skill level of riding. The bike could overpower you in a second if youโ€™re not skilled enough to handle it. Be honest and true to yourself when assessing your skill level.

What are you going to use the bike for? โ€“ Is going to be for city riding, the trails, off-road, or a long stretch of highway? Youโ€™ll also have to determine whether youโ€™ll be using the bike every day or just on the weekends. Many enthusiasts have different types of bikes because, most of the time, one cannot do what the other can. You won't ride a scooter through the Outback ? Or will you  ?

How far will your rides be? โ€“ This is important because you need to consider your comfort level. Long rides can be tough on your arms, legs, and back so it helps if your motorcycle is designed for such rides.

 

Now that youโ€™ve answered those questions and have determined your needs, itโ€™s now time to choose the bike that will fit you perfectly.

 

There are different types of motorcycles and one gets added every once in a while to fill a different type of need but, there are essentially 6 types that you can choose from. Those are;

  • Standard or Naked
  • Cruiser
  • Sport bike
  • Touring
  • Dual-sport
  • Scooters and mopeds

Once youโ€™ve made your choice, you can now head out for a test ride. Nothing compares to an actual ride to get out there and feel the connection between you and the motorcycle. Itโ€™s also good to test ride different engine displacements so you can decide on the power you want and know how it handles.
