I admittedly know absolutely nothing about motorcycles so I’ve been wondering about something. I see Harley Davidsons on the road with these high handlebars (kind of like a large V). Is there a reason why these are so high or is it purely an aesthetic thing? Also, don’t your arms get tired after a while having to hold them up so high when riding on these bikes? Thanks.

berrytrain asked:


I can only spend 6-7K. I realize this will not buy a lot of bike.
Aside from that, what motorcycles have the worse resale value? I am interested in buying new because the used market is so competetive right now. Is Harley the bike
with the best resale? I am looking for a cruiser type
to ride around Denver, CO. Thanks.

I keep seeing them around town. They look really funny. I’ve seen some before with two wheels on the back, but now I keep seeing motorcycles with two wheels on the front and one on the back.

what are they called? what are they for? do they help balance? i’m curious! Thanks!

Specifically, I’m interested in statistical comparisons in the number of deaths by general aviation vs. riding a motorcycle. I’m comparing data with a motorcycle rider friend and I need something that both can be compared to. Absolute numbers don’t help because there are many more riders than general aviators. All I’ve been able to find are statistics that use deaths per number of miles ridden for motorcycles or deaths vs. number of hours flown, and I need something that both can be compared to. Something like hours ridden vs. hours flown would be perfect. Thanks.
I don’t think hours ridden vs. hours flown unfairly hampers the statistics in favor of either form of transportation. It’s merely an attempt to create a benchmark by which both activities can be compared to. For every 100,000 hours of motorcyle ridding there are X fatalities. For every 100,000 hours of general aviation, there are X fatalities. Obviously the dangers of each activity are very different and there really is no way to compare specifics in terms of respective dangers. With that said, miles ridden vs miles flown wouldn’t work because airplanes typically travel much faster and cover more miles in a given period of time than do motorcycles. This would put aviation in a better light unfairly. These analyses are of course, very simplistic. It’s impossible to address every scenario in a yahoo question/answer session. I’m looking more for suggestions and information where a better statisitical comparison might be available.

The motorcycles driving past my house on warm nights shake my entire house with their loud mufflers. I know these altered mufflers are illegal in some parts of Chicago. How do I get this addressed in my neighborhood?

Josh asked:


I am a Mechanical Engineering student from Melbourne Australia. My university offers an internship in our field which I am due to do next year. I have always wanted to work with motorbikes, but none of the big name manufacturers seem to do any engineering here. Does anyone know how a Mechanical Engineer could work with motorcycles here in Australia?
