As a new rider, buying your first motorcycle is a huge deal. There are a number of global factors causing the popularity of motorcycles to rise, from great gas mileage to overall affordability. I love seeing more and more people getting into this awesome two-wheeled sport. Whether you are thinking about buying a motorcycle to save fuel, commute on, ride for pleasure, race on a track, or even pick up a significant other - finding the perfect first bike for you is extremely important. Your first bike has the power to determine if you are going to love the sport and stick around forever, or make a quick departure with deflated optimism. I want to share my early motorcycling experiences with you and what I have learned as I have worked in the industry so that you make the best choices possible when starting out as a new rider.
A long time ago I had my heart set on getting into motorcycling and nothing was going to stop me. I was 18 years old at the time and was about to graduate from high school. Graduation also meant that the ban my parents had imposed on powersport vehicles as I was growing up was about to expire. I could not wait to indulge in all things two-wheeled.
For as long as I could remember I had wanted anything from a motorcycle, to a dirt bike, to a scooter. Where to start? With so many options out there and an accumulation of money saved, what kind of bike was right for me? What factors are the most important when choosing a first bike? Is it an economical decision? I’m going to answer all these new rider question for you in this blog series so that you can make the best possible decision as you get into the awesome sport of motorcycling and dirt biking.
