A blue and silver sport motorcycle is displayed with text overlay asking, 'What is the best Motorcycle to Start riding on?' and a 'SWIPE' indicator. The motorcycle is a Yamaha R1.

A black Yamaha R3 motorcycle is shown with text stating it is the 'absolute BEST starter motorcycle for anyone that has never ridden before. 10/10'.

A dark green Kawasaki Z650 naked motorcycle is displayed. Text describes it as a great choice for those with some experience who prefer less aggressive seating.

What is the best Motorcycle to Start riding on?

All of these are great choices for anyone looking to get into riding! If you have NEVER ridden on 2 wheels before I would highly suggest the Yamaha R3. The other two are great if you have throttle discipline and want something a bit more. Comment any other questions!! #biker #motorcyclelife #m
