When choosing a first motorcycle, a beginner has many questions. A novice motorcyclist wants to buy a bike more expensive and more beautiful, but this is wrong. It is necessary to be guided by safety, and only in the last place by what speed characteristics the selected model has.
Instructions
Step 1
A common mistake newbies make is buying the model of their dreams as their first bike, which they dreamed of as a child. The novice rider is much more likely to drop the motorcycle, and directly on himself. The first bike should be an inexpensive model, not only in price, but also in maintenance. Do not pay attention to the beautiful plastic body kits, they only interfere with learning.
Step 2
Decide on the goals and nature of your future motorcycle riding. If you need it in order to make daily commutes to work, which is a long distance from home, then bikes for travel and long trips (for example, Tourist or Cruiser) are best suited. Don't buy the Sport as your first motorcycle.
Step 3
Browse through all the magazines covering all the latest advances in motorcycle construction to know what parameters are essential for each bike. It should be borne in mind that design features, such as the location of the steering wheel and footpegs, are strictly personal, so you should not order a motorcycle without ever trying it.
Step 4
For a person with a relatively small size, it is worth taking a small bike with an engine of no more than 400 cubic centimeters. If the height and weight are above average, then you can buy a bigger bike, but with a reasonable power (maximum 600 cc). When choosing a motorcycle, the main thing is that you really like it, and then using it will only bring great pleasure. Having decided on a model, you should always consult with experts or read more about her on the Internet.
