The Best Choices When Choosing A Motorcycle: Beginner Edition

​On the surface, motorcycles look like they would be fun to ride, but they can also be complicated and intimidating to work with. If you need a little help understanding the different types of motorcycles for beginners, we've got you covered with our guide.

To help you decide on the best beginner motorcycle, here are 5 different types and what to look out for.

What type of motorcycle is the best fit for you?

1. Street and roadster motorcycles
   Under a broad category, you can expect to get a lot of riding fun out of these motorcycles. Street bikes are the perfect choice for urban, commuting, and short-term travel. 
   
   These models are designed to be low maintenance, fun to ride, and easy to learn how to drive. They also have minimal protection like skid plates or crash bars that are used for extra safety.
   
   
2. Adventure Motorcycles
   Adventure motorcycles are not only the perfect all-rounder beginner bike, but they are also the ideal choice for long-term traveling. And can also be ridden both on and off the road, making them very versatile. Essentially, they resemble street motorcycles.
   
   The difference is that they have more aggressive tires, crash protection, and luggage options useful for traveling and commuting.
    
3. Scooters
   Scooters are the perfect choice for people who want to get out and about with their friends in town; they offer lots of storage capacity, so you can have your essentials on hand when you need them. It's also an excellent choice for people who don't want to spend all day in the car.
   
   
4. Sportsbike
   Sportbikes are designed to speed on the track but can also be used on the street. They are good for short, spirited rides due to their aggressive body position. Although they require a high level of skill to ride them comfortably, the sportbike is the perfect way to train your riding skills or have fun on the weekend.
   
   
5. Cruisers and Tourers
   Cruisers are powerful motorcycles, but they rarely offer high-top speeds and are not capable of going off-road. As a new rider, you want to choose a low seat, moderate weight, and engine size of 400-750 cc.
