Women make up the fastest-growing group of motorcyclists. Women’s increased involvement makes the activity a better and richer experience for all riders. The riding world is changing as manufacturers and dealer networks address this expanding market.
The focus of this book is on the objective issues that make riding practical and enjoyable, regardless of gender. For example, the average woman has a shorter inseam and weighs less than the average man. This distinction can be important because height and weight help you determine what bike is most appropriate.
As a woman rider, you’re looking for a pragmatic, thoughtful process to decide your own answers to questions like:
- What
is the best women’s street bike, dirt bike or cruiser?
- How
can I compare models of motorcycles to find an appropriate seat height?
- What
brands and models are most affordable?
- How
can I find trustworthy dealers?
- Are
aftermarket warranties a good idea?
- What
are some stress-free, high-value negotiating strategies?
- Should
I buy a new or used motorcycle?
- How
can I thoroughly inspect used bikes?
- What
criteria should I consider when choosing riding gear and aftermarket
accessories and luggage, and where can I find discounts and good deals?
- Where can I get the rider training that fits my needs?
