Beginner's Guide to Motorcycle Types
www.revzilla.com/common-tread...
For beginners, finding the right motorcycle to fit their needs can be a daunting task. The selection is vast, and the expense is not insignificant. Various types of motorcycles have equally varied strengths. They also have their own set of weaknesses. Just as you wouldn’t use a sledgehammer to polish your best dress shoes, you wouldn’t want to choose a track bike if the type of riding you wanted to do was all off-road. Regardless of if you are looking for a beginner motorcycle, or are merely seeking to take a dip into another riding style that you might not be as experienced in, this video is all about providing some insight into the types of motorcycles available, and how they can improve your desired riding experience.

    I can't tell you how much I appreciate the lack of pretentiousness with which you approach this topic. A lot of us rookies don't know how to act, especially around our more experienced rider friends. For some of them, riding is a lifestyle, an extension of their childhood, sometimes almost a cult. The most intimidating hurdle to clear is feeling comfortable asking questions and just letting yourself be a noob. It's all about learning and growing. Well done. You guys rock!

Then after almost 4 years, moved to a litre bike. I felt confident and proficient at every step, as well as financially didnt get a hit at all

    For newbies and returners, I really think a scooter is the way to get the feel of the road, especially if you are not doing to many miles at first. A year on something like a Honda PCX is a great way of getting your brain in shape for the road, plus it's practical too. In Europe the scooter is the default choice. Sure they are not as cool as a motorbike but: they are cheap to buy and run; simple to operate; nippy; practical; and fun. Oh yes and you can usually park them anywhere.

    No I’m afraid not. I’m in the UK and 2 years ago, as covid raged, the best I could do was get a CBT (compulsory basic training) certificate, allowing me to ride 125cc/15hp motorcycles on “L” (for learner) plates. Although I’m plenty old enough, getting a licence was utterly impossible. Test centres focussed on the backlog of car drivers and bike tests were almost impossible to get. So I bought a CBR125R, and although I loved it, I quickly got interested in off-road, to which it clearly wasn’t suited. A year after, a white van did a janky u-turn from the wrong side of the road. I went over his bonnet and the bike stayed where it was, totalled. So was the van. But I got away with soft tissue injuries, and as I picked myself up off the tarmac, ready to lay into the chump in the van, I heard myself telling no one in particular, “on the plus side, I can get a dual sport now”. I still have that bike, a WR125R, and it does an admirable job on dirt. Less wonderful on tarmac. But having finally got my full licence, and agonised endlessly over whether to get a 200kg dirt friendly adv bike or a bigger dual sport. Then someone showed my the specs of a Kove 450 Rally, and on faith and hope alone, I ordered one. In June, I will hopefully be among the first dozen owners in England. A huge risk, buying something sight unseen, but it’s not my first time doing this. I reckon if you do enough research and follow your intuition, do and don’t look back, you rarely regret it.

    Abigail Phillips Guys get tied up in engine size and horsepower. Don’t get caught up in that and ignore when they try and tell you that you need at least a 1000cc bike with 150 or more horsepower... for someone your size, a 300 to 500cc bike is good for highway riding.... if you don’t ever plan on staying on a highway more than 5 miles at a time, than a 250 (or even a 125cc Grom or Z125) might work for you... and don’t worry about getting a “motorcycle for life” most people’s first motorcycles get sold or traded within eighteen months as they learn their likes and dislikes... that said, if you get something like a Grom, 250 dual sport, or even a Himalayan; then adding a second bike and not trading in for one might be more fitting later on.... you’ll know why.....

    I kinda a agree, as i'm not those people who start with smaller CC motorcycle then sold it to step up for larger one. Adventure bike is like all in one multi-role package in my opinion and that really interesting. and if i gonna buy one, i gonna use it for a very long time so i need those multi-purpose characteristic from that motorcycle.

I almost got plowed into at a red light by a driver who was on his phone, and my 50cc would not have been able to accelerate fast enough to avoid him like I did with my 150cc.

    dual sport is good for city riding as well!!! You sit tall so people can see you and you can see more around you. You can go over pot holes, bad roads and escape accidents like jumping the curb etc The height is intimating but if you ride proper then you will be fine! They usually come low CC engines with especially the modern ones but you get good gas mileage and longer service intervals. Dont even have to be afraid of dropping the bike(just upgrade handle bar or/AND put on hand guards) + a skid plate and a seat upgrade if you plan to ride 2 + hours in single ride

I just got rid of my wr for a street bike and I miss the comfy riding position, the ability to go anywhere and being able to throw it off a bridge, pick it up and ride it again. Now if I just tip over on my new bike, I have to worry about paint. And dual sport or dirt bike parts are as cheap as it comes

    I think a great beginner bike is the street legal dual sport KLX 250. Bought the KLX (camo version) for mainly off road desert and minor street work. Turns out this bike is surprisingly good for city streets and in town commuting. Good for lane splitting too. 6 speeds and you will be doing lots of shifting but it is very smooth and easy to do. Power is adequate. Top speed maybe 85 mph but really not designed for freeways. I'm getting close to 70 mpg so very economical. Fun little bike. Electric start. Fuel injected. Disc brakes on front and back. Negatives are it's rather tall, but it does come down to earth when you sit on it. Pretty good seat and comfort for being a dual sport. Maybe 5 foot 10 inch or taller for rider height.

    I spent an hour at the dealership debating between the Iron 883 and the Forty-Eight because I am fairly short. The sales person swapped out seats so i could feel what different options/heights felt like in addition to comparing mid and forward controls.

    Whatever about the bikes... I'm just hugely impressed with the production quality of the video and how good those presenters were!!

    Holy geez, that scooter description. I ain't going anywhere far for a good amount of years, a pack mule is my spirit animal, I haven't ridden a manual before, and I haven't ridden a motorcycle before. I love suspension and the look of a dirt bike, but DANG that storage capability.

    Wow! This is an excellent video! My biggest complaint with KZread in general is there are too many people who ramble and don't know how to make a point. The guys who made this video are pros and drive home their point with authority. Fast moving, informative, with excellent visuals. Great Video, guys!
