I had a child just before turning 40. As soon as that happened my urge to ride around on 2 wheels vanished while the rest of traffic is oversized trucks and SUVs with “drivers”staring at TikTok videos.
Scuse but I bought a bike in my mid 20s for a few grand wtf kinda bike you holding out for? Like 2300 all in. It wasn’t a beauty, it wasn’t in pristine condition but it got me in and I learned a lot. You have to be realistic with expectations.
There are always more important things or more immediate concerns. I had my first kid at 23. Plus 2300 is not something I have ever had as spare money.
I highly recommend it if you’re the kind of person who can be safe and keep your concentration on the road. I have a town hopper with small bags that I use more often than either my car or my truck and I’ve got a bagger that I take on long trips if the weather is pretty reasonable. It’s fun, it’s cheaper to maintain than a full size vehicle, and generally it’s quicker getting in and out of places.
I have been saving up for a motorcycle since I was 20. Now I’m approaching 40 and there’s finally some money in that account
