Which is the perfect motorcycle? Is it the newest adventure bike to hit the market, or is it an older standard, or naked, bike? Bret uses a detailed process to select the right motorcycle for his style of riding (or in his case, motorcycles). Bret's first true love It boils down to what you need the motorcycle to do. Will you be touring? Taking it off-road? Commuting into work? Traveling internationally? What about performance requirements? The right motorcycle can change based on where you are in life and what you are planning on doing with the bike.

Crashing is a significant reality for motorcyclists, both on-road and off-road. The good news is that most crashes are our own faults. In Washington State, 75% of motorcycle fatalities were single-vehicle (meaning no other vehicles were involved) within a curve, meaning the motorcyclist had complete control over the situation. For off-road riders, nearly 100% of crashes are caused by the rider. If we don't want to be another statistic, learn how you have control over your own fate.
