hey whatsup. i live in phoenix AZ and I like motorcycles but dont have much experience or anything. I just think they’re badass and I want to learn about them and eventually own one. When I get a bike I dont wanto crouch forward in a sports bike all day but owning the road and I dont wanto ride a huge cruiser though they beckon comfort. I also wanto be able to make fairly longer than corner store trips. I want the best of them all I guess.
And the dangers of motorcycles scare me to death. no pun intended. especially since its so hot here and i dont wanto strap up a spacesuit ever time i wanto jump on my beast.
enlighten me

UUmmm well you said you’re not looking to lean over nor are you intending on riding a “huge cruiser” I think I have that correct. Well not all cruisers are “huge”. There are some I guess you could say midsized ones out there and not all the sport bikes are going to have you leaning over the whole time. I definitely understand what you are saying about the dangerous motorcycles. Do you plan on buying a new bike or a used one? and have you gone around and sat on bikes to see what feels comfortable to you? Take in mind that you will always want to be safe as you said so a “spacesuit” might be helpful haha. A jacket with shoulder pads, elbow pads, and back protection is something I refer, gloves are nice, riding pants, boots. and anyone that doesn’t wear a helmet is not that bright.
