Riding a motorcycle is great, but it isn’t for everyone. Motorcycles are an investment in time and money, so buying a motorcycle is not a decision to be made lightly. Our Milwaukee motorcycle injury attorneys offer this information to help you make an informed decision.

What are the pros and cons of motorcycle riding?

Pros:

  • Motorcycles are very fuel efficient. A motorcycle can get about 40 miles per gallon, which means you save money on gas.
  • Motorcycles are easier to maneuver in traffic. You may be able to speed up your commute.
  • It’s easier to find a good parking spot.
  • It is cheaper to insure a motorcycle than a car because a motorcycle is less likely to cause serious damage to other vehicles.
  • It's fun!

Cons:

  • While we love to feel the wind in our hair, some people believe that it's a con that you are exposed to the elements.
  • If you decide to invest in safety equipment, it can get expensive.
  • If you are injured in a Wisconsin motorcycle accident, you will have to fight stereotypes of motorcyclists in order to obtain fair insurance compensation.
