RE: Possible New Bike????

in #motorcycle7 years ago

Different bikes want to be riden completely different. I owned many different bikes and in my opinion you just have to sit down, take a ride and listen to your inner voice if it likes the bike or not. It is hard to just suggest a bike for anybody else.

Sort:  

Thats true, and anohter thing is that i am 6ft6 so a lot of bikes are instantly ruled out! I have not had the chance to ride many bikes.... yet!

just go to a store and drive them

Not that easy over here. Most motorcycle shops prohibit test rides. There is a shop near me that i am hoping to negotiate a deal with. I am going to propose that they let me ride a bike and i will review and tell people where to go to get it.

that is pretty sad. I mean how do you know if you like the bike and how could you buy it without testing it if it suits you? does not make sense to me

It doesnt make sense to me either, cars are another story though, you can test drive a car easily as you have the rep in the passenger seat next to you. There is also a LOT of motorcycle theft in London too unfortunately.
