3 Reasons To Ride a Motorcycle

Harley-Davidson 756

Riding a motorcycle is a wonderful experience enjoyed by millions of people around the world. They are fuel-efficient, customizable and easy to park. There are a variety of options available as well, so most people will be able to find the perfect model for their needs.

1. Customization

Motorcycles come in all sizes and can suit different purposes. Large, comfortably padded bikes with extra storage space can be perfect for long trips, while smaller, lighter models are great for maneuvering quickly in high-traffic areas or taking to a racetrack. From the newest model to vintage motorcycles Portland OR, there is something nearly everyone can enjoy.

2. Fuel Cost

Many motorcycles are able to get between 60 and 70 miles per gallon, with some models getting up to 100 mpg or more. This means that huge savings can be felt at the gas station, since most cars, sports utility vehicles and trucks are not currently able to be anywhere near that efficient and require more fuel more often. Even in areas where the weather is not conducive to driving a motorcycle all year long, savings can still be felt during the spring, summer and fall seasons.

3. Easy Parking

In densely populated areas it can be hard to find a good parking space in a large vehicle. Motorcycles can fit in small spaces and, depending on the size of the bikes, two people can even park together in one spot. Even though they can park in small areas, make sure to only park in legally designated spots to avoid towing or tickets.

When buying a motorcycle for the first time, make sure to research all the available options thoroughly before making a purchase. Talk to people who have experience both riding and fixing motorcycles to ensure the bike being purchased is in good condition and will meet expectations on the road.
