Should I Allow My Teenager to Get a Motorcycle
As teenagers get older, the prospect of soon being able to drive on their own is very exciting for them. However, it can be a complete nightmare for a parent. Many teenagers start asking for a motorcycle rather than a passenger vehicle as this type approaches. Should you allow your teenager to get a motorcycle? This can be a hard decision to make and one that shouldn’t be make quickly.
There are a few advantages to allowing your teenager to have a motorcycle. For one, they will only be able to have one other passenger with them. That is if you allow it. Some parents make the rule of no passengers for the first year. That is a personal decision. Many passenger vehicle accidents occur because of the car being full of kids and that is a major distraction. They also won’t be able to hide any alcohol on a motorcycle as they can with a passenger vehicle. Having been a teenager once ourselves we know this is a likely scenario in a car.
For the most part, purchasing a used motorcycle for your teenager will be less expensive than purchasing a used car for them. The insurance can also be cheaper too in many cases. The cost of gas that they will be burning up is also going to be significantly less than will a car.
You are going to have to take an honest look at how responsible your teenager is. For those who have allowed their teenager to ride on and operate off road motorcycles for years, then the issue won’t be as large. This is because you know they are capable of handling the equipment and know how to properly operate it. If your teenager has a need for speed or is a risk taker you will need to be more cautious with this decision. You will also have the issue of how your teenager is going to get around when the weather is cold or too bad to operate a motorcycle in.
For the most part, if you agree to allow your teenager to get a motorcycle, you should be able to come to agreement on the terms and conditions of this taking place. Start with safety requirements. Is your teenager willing to wear a motorcycle helmet without fail all the time when operating the bike? Some teenagers are too concerned with their hair or looking like a dork in front of their peers to agree to this. If they won’t then the motorcycle definitely should not be considered.
Is your teenager willing to take a motorcycle safety course? If they aren’t willing to give up one weekend to be involved in such an activity, do you really want to turn them loose with such a machine? Regardless of the power behind a particular model of motorcycle, it is still a bike they will be riding with other cars on the road.
Once you have discusses the guidelines and terms of your allowing your teenager to get a motorcycle, you will have a clearer picture of what your teenager is willing to do for it. If they are willing to abide by your rules then you should trust them to make the right decisions. It is a good idea to put the agreed terms in writing as well as the consequences for breaking them. This way everyone is clear on what is expected from them regarding this decision.
It can be difficult allowing our children to grow up. The rite of passage that comes with obtaining a driver’s permit isn’t easy for most parents. Allowing them to be on their own and operate a motorcycle is a tough decision and one parents have to make all the time. As a parent, it is your responsibility to do what is in the best interest of your teenager even if they don’t agree with the decision.

Teenagers and Motorcycles – Should You Allow It?
Getting a drivers license can be a very exciting time for a teenager, especially he or she is one of the first to get it. For the parents though, the experience isn’t always so exciting. If motorcycles are popular in your family, you may also have to deal with the possibility of having your kid shoot for their motorcycle license as well. The question is, should you or shouldn’t you allow your kid to get their motorcycle license at such an early age.

Motorcycles Provide Inexpensive Motorized Travel and Recreation for People of All Ages
No matter who you are or where you live, it is not hard to see that gas prices are higher than they were a few years ago, and it is not likely they will drop much lower than they are now. The only conclusion that can be made about bigger vehicles is that they are more expensive to own and operate. Bigger vehicles require more expensive maintenance and repairs, and more recently, bigger means that it could easily cost $80 to fill the gas tank of that bigger, better truck.

i turn my harley davidson flhtuic into a trike and it steer hard i do not know what easy steer to put in a 4.5 degree or 8 degree.thank.
I was out at a pretty hard core biker bar in San Francisco yesterday called Underdogs Sports Bar and I noticed a bunch of guys wearing Harley Davidson T shirts at the bar. Since I am a avid HD rider, I introduced myself and talked to them for a while. They seemed like really cool guys. When they left, I looked out the window to see what kind of Hogs they rode.
They all got into a Prius and drove away! I was floored!
I don’t think people should be able to wear HD clothing unless they actually ride Harley’s.
What do you think?
Bub,
“I guess you think it should be illegal to wear a football jersey unless you are a pro football player?”
Great point! Maybe that should be illegal too. I wish we could have gotten this on the November ballot.
