Welcome to the forums!
For myself, I really didn’t consider it until a few months ago myself. Frankly, your post looks a lot like what I would have said 6 months ago. 
Mostly, I started thinking about riding because I had a character floating around in my head, but how can I write a story about a guy who rides motorcycles if I don’t know squat about them? My character was going to ride a newer motorcycle with a kick starter of all things! But at the time, I didn’t know just how ridiculous that idea was…
Once I started looking around for information about riding and watching bikers out on the roads, I became interested in riding for its own sake, and now, here I am…
If you’ve never ridden before, try sitting on some bikes and see how some of the different models feel under you (I would suggest doing this after the class). You might find that while you think the Vulcan is gorgeous, something else is more comfortable…
Best of luck to you!
