A very different group of people, motorcycle riders have a passion for life. They each have their preferences for what they eat, what they wear, and how they drive. Only a biker can truly appreciate the joy of riding a motorcycle, and he finds you calm only when riding a motorcycle that corresponds to his frequency. Every type of motorcycle rider has a distinct personality, which is defined by the motorcycle he drives. We are here to figure out how to proceed in that way.
Below is a list of the 12 different types of motorbike riders. Which one do you believe you are?
12 Types Of Motorcycle Riders
1. The Extreme Retro Rider
For this rider, only vintage will do, which gives them their royal designation. They would ride happily and at their own pace as a motorcycle family, confined to that group. Some motorcyclists cannot ride modern classic motorcycles, and if anyone compares their old machine to a modern motorcycle, they are more likely to get into disagreements. We all, however, can’t help but adore the appearance of vintage motorcycles.
2. The Devoted Supporters Of Harley
Despite this, Harley riders are sure their machine is unique compared to other motorcycles. On their comfortable cruisers, often lower than any other adventure or sports tourer motorcycle, these riders would experience their bliss. The bike’s substantial weight and V-twin power combine to create a vehicle that may make touring an exciting blue-eyed thrill.
3. That Poser
You know this cyclist even if you don’t ride. This person spends all his money on brand-new gear and frequently stops at petrol stations and bars to take pictures of his bike. They would need to gain biking knowledge and refrain from discussions regarding motorcycles. It’s funny/pitiful when you look at the miles on his bike and realize that he never actually rides it for any significant amount of time.
4. Adventure Traveler
One rider considers riding inside the city to be fake riding and would never want to do it. This rider believes that authentic riding entails only using a motorcycle to travel to popular destinations abroad. He thinks that a skilled rider can travel anywhere on a motorcycle. They would likely ride alone to reach their goals according to their schedule rather than wait for others to arrive. If you’re a fellow adventurer, you’ll only ever see this rider in the wild.
5. The Do-It-Yourself Men
Such a rider would be more in love with his bike than with himself. He would have assumed he was the finest mechanic without seeing a mechanic’s face. Changing your engine oil is one thing, but this rider’s type also rebuilds their engines as necessary, in addition to their unique forks. This rider does not intersect with any other riders. Yet, this type of rider carries the greatest small toolkit you’ve ever seen, crammed into the smallest space you could find on a motorcycle. Some riders consider their cash, card, and mobile phone their emergency roadside repair kit.
This rider is ready for everything, including clutch/accelerator cable failure, tire blowouts, unpleasant rattling sounds, a petrol tank leak, on-the-fly chain strain adjustment, and more. Riders are always anxious to ride on abandoned roadways out of the dread of breakdowns.
6. The Diehard Commuter
This rider is equipped with every piece of riding equipment imaginable, from head to toe. He takes as much luggage as he can, has complete faith in himself, and can move his house with the help of his bike. Such bikers’ preferred choice of bikes is sports tourers. For them, riding in harsh weather and temperatures is child’s play. He may stop if he can’t see, but if it’s not snowing, hailing, or sweltering outside, he’ll keep riding as if nothing is unusual.
7. The Squids (Freaks)
Most of you have seen squids in the wild being passed by one at triple-digit highway speeds. The squid is dangerous, but there is no need to be alarmed. This is because it usually only poses a threat to itself. Therefore, it makes sense to leave them alone. The squid probably rides it at high speed on public streets or illegally on a footpath. He’s pulling wheelies and stoppies and doing whatever the hellfire he needs to in the middle of rush hour traffic.
He can easily maneuver through congested traffic, like riding on a wide track. Even though he probably has some sunglasses on, he is all naked, dressed only in loose shorts and sneakers. We love impressive maneuvers but detest it when these riders defame bikers in general.
8. The Beginner
All of us have experienced the “THE NEWBIE” cliché. During that first motorcycle ride, the rider was eager to pick up the sport and even consider purchasing a motorcycle. If you are a rider, you’ve been there and understand why these riders are more cautious and afraid yet still refuse to let it show. Every time you ride your motorcycle, you pick up an additional talent. Riding a motorcycle is a skill. The riding fraternity is strengthened by instructing and guiding novices on the dos and don’ts. Seeing these riders improve makes you pleased, especially if you’ve supported them on the road.
9. A Slow Rider
As the name implies, these riders prefer to ride at a set speed regardless of their bike. They have a mental threshold that prevents them from revving excessively. They are sure to make other groups wait for hours while traveling with other groups, keeping the entire journey orderly and safe. They travel at speeds that negate the need for fifth and sixth gears in their gearbox. They can ride slowly, but if they don’t occasionally inject some adrenaline into the bike, even the bike will eventually die. These people’s mentality inspires us.
10. The Ultimate Caregiver
Undoubtedly, there is someone like this in every group who meticulously maintains their bikes. Every nut and bolt on the bike would be glowing. The brightness is so intense that it may cause daytime blindness, similar to what a high beam would do at night. For the most part, cleaning a motorcycle only takes a few hours. However, one carer would spend the entire day pampering the machine with every imaginable shampoo, polish, cleaner, brush, and accessory.
When they look at their bike, even a bike from the dealership can need to be updated. Even after some off-roading on slick surfaces, they would want their bike to be clean and washed or cleaned at each rest break they make while traveling. They would be prepared to make a U-turn and head back home if there was any slush on the road.
11. The Companions
The cops, the citizens on the street, and all the nearby cars adore them. They abide by all traffic regulations, keeping the ride safe for them and anyone around them. They view running a red light as a sin, and if their indicators are off when changing lanes, it makes them feel ashamed. They will turn on the indicator at the turn, even if no single person is on the road, just in case ghosts are crossing it. Whatever the length of the journey, they will be equipped with all the required gear.
12. The Quitter
If you were looking to purchase a used motorcycle and came across a used motorcycle with an alluring caption while searching for it on Google, you would have undoubtedly noticed this.
— “I recently purchased my dream bike and love it, but my wife doesn’t want me to be happy, so it is for sale. Can’t install a car seat on a motorcycle, and married men reject low mileage and expensive maintenance vehicles. Even if none of this is true, you wouldn’t care if you got a lot of value from it.
If that’s the bike you want, you’re looking to get an unbelievable deal on it, considering the seller only put a few kilometers on it. The man may refuse to acknowledge that his wife is a complete fabrication and that he doesn’t genuinely want to be a biker. But again, you are indifferent. You received a fantastic offer.
