Is it worth it?

Now I know a lot of guys on here have Motorcycles so I figured I would come and ask you guys. Like all things in life there are risks. But obviously I am one because I wouldn't be on this forum haha. Now with motorcycles there are risks because they are obiously very dangerous. But they look fun as hell and I have allways thought that they are a HUGE pussy factor. I mean and how cool is popping a wheely too haha. I was thinking of taking a motorcycle driving course that gets your license and they teach ya how to ride. And than of course seeing if they are for me and if so I would start saving for a bike. Maybe even do another course to make sure I really am ready for the road.

NOW, my question is anyone have good/bad experiences with them. Do they really pick up that much tail too. And in the end, are Motorcycles worth it?
 
This is CC conversation, I'll move it.

I've been injured MANY times on a Motorcycle!

What the hell? Are you serious? You are getting a bike just because you think women will instinctively flock to you proclaiming their fondness of your proficiency with a motorcycle? Dude, think this one through.
 
I have three friends who reaped a lot of hospital time, pain and permanent disabilities from riding street bikes. If you ride enough it isn't a question of if but when you have a serious accident.

Haha no, I was just asking if that rumor is true. :chomp:
 
I have been riding motorcycles for about 12 yrs. I have had friends hurt, one killed while riding. I am a single guy with no kids and if I die on my bike, it will upset my immediate family but will not financially strain anyone. I wouldnt be leaving any children or spouse. Riding motorcycles is dangerous, generally because vehicles do not see you. I can remember riding down a main 4 lane road and this lady cutting right into me. I literally had to lean my hand on her drivers side front door glass to balance and not go into the median. She was scared to death and it was a bit unnerving to me as well. People are the problem when riding.

The good part is , yes you can probably get some play with a bike. Assuming it is nice and you are in the right area. It is a great opening line, wanna go for a ride ? Most women like the idea of it and the sense of calmness and relaxation is so nice too. I really like motorcycles but no matter how good I am on one ( I can ride wheelies for blocks) I never lose respect for the bike.

Summary, when you throw one leg over the bike, always realize that there are obvious dangers involved and in an accident you will always get the worst of the crash. Concrete has never lost. Good luck with your decision, but if you do get one, TAKE the safety class. It could save your life.

Another tidbit, if your game is solely based on the bike then it isn't worth the risk. A guy who rode with my nephew just ended up getting his girlfriend killed as well as ending up in the hospital for several weeks because he hit a pot hole, lost control and went into a tree. Another guy blew a stop sign and got owned by a car....both last Summer.
 
as with anything, you can get hurt. People slip and fall and kill themselves getting out of the bathtub. Riding bikes is dangerous but to me it is worth the risk. A smart, informed cyclist can be killed as easily as a novice. I have ridden with lots and lots of guys and have seen very very few accidents. Everyone is quickt to say this guy died, or this girl lost a leg etc.... but most of us make it home unscathed. I could get hiv from promiscious sex but it is something that I dont consider a lot. I protect myself the best I can(condoms ) and go do my thing. I wear a helmet when I ride and hope for the best. If I ever get on my bike and am nervous about killing or mangling myself, I will get off of it and never ride again. You must ride with the knowledge that things could go bad quickly. Inform yourself and learn the defensive driving skills and enjoy.

I ride wheelies occasionally in empty lots or on the road late late at night with little no traffic. Lots of fun. I am sure my life insurance company would disapprove though. :qt:

First off go to Mavricks thread asking me about the F4i...Ive been doing this since i was 9yrs old. I freak if i see or hear a bike...(like a dog when he see's a rabbit running)..LOL.

This is a sport to me. it requires talent, skill, eye/hand corridination, balls, aptitude, and most of all passion...
i dont "do" this sport for anyone else, i do it for me- it feeds my soul. i mean this in all seriousness...it has all my life.
I have had one Girl on the back of my new bike, which ive had for about 8 months now...Most women dont like these bikes, young girls more so- but only a minority...so your ref: to getting "pussy" while on a crotch-rocket is going to be sparatic...they are out there, but Harleys are more along the lines of how women view Motorcycling...they want to cruise the beaches/ mountains at a speed which they can see and relax....

i try to get thru the mountain and down the beach highway as fast as i can...picking off Porsche's and Ferrari's as i go... :p

its a dangerous "Sport" to try to fit in or join so to speak...(what i mean by this- is we have riders come and join us every weekend- they usually crash out trying to keep up or show off...we crash too- law of averages) but anyone who has some motor skills can ride a bike and enjoy themselves...its a great hobby for alot of people...it provides and arena to make aquaintences and friends...
 
Respect the machine and you`ll be o.k. You can`t be a show off and not expect to have some injuries, but I love to ride and so do most ladies....
 
It's the other morons on the street you have to worry about. The last time I got run off the road I chased that MoFo down with intent to do bodily harm. When I caught up with the MoFo it was an old lady.

Sold the bike shortly afterwards. Too many close calls.
 
its always a good idea to ride ahead about 100 yards of your front wheel...this way you can see what other drivers are doing or not doing....
 
You guys saying that I WILL dump the bike sooner or later, is really scary. Is it really that easy to crash going around a turn?

in reality its just like driving a car...probability factors. Motorcycles are more of a hazard because they are not easily seen and people cant judge speeds of a smaller object...if you take the time to learn about the bike and its capabilities- you will be fine. Road hazards have MORE of an impact on a bike then they do in a car...It is much more of a skill, than getting into a car and driving to the store...most of all, you must be very comfortable at riding a bike in and out of traffic, at speed and at slow speeds...
 
speaking of turns...... :p

i learned to ride a 50cc honda when i was 5 yrs old. i dumped my 125cc suzuki in my parents yard when i was 12, burned the shit outta my leg (layed it on the exhaust pipe a bit too long lol). been riding a bike on the highway since i was 14 and i'm 28 now and i've never had an accident that entire time. just watch out for EVERYONE ELSE on the road. they are the reason you will have a problem most likely, not you unless you don't respect your limits and the bikes limits. i've only popped a wheelie twice in my life. they're not for me
