Tips for Buying a Motorcycle

Posted on July 30, 2021August 1, 2021 by admin

The freedom of the open road is a fantastic feeling, especially once you hear the rumble of the motorcycle engine and feel the wind in your face. Millions of Americans jump on their motorcycles to go riding each year. If you want to join them but do not have a bike yet, there are some things to consider when shopping for one in Maryville, TN. 

Once you have purchased your motorcycle, give us a call at Carr Insurance Group to learn your insurance options. 

Here are some tips to keep in mind when purchasing a motorcycle:

Determine Your Budget

Prices for motorcycles can vary, and a new, basic motorcycle can cost between $5,000 and $10,000. Top-of-the-line motorcycles can cost $40,000 or more. Used motorcycles cost less but sometimes require some extra maintenance work.

Plan for Maintenance

Like cars, motorcycles require routine maintenance to keep running smoothly. Before purchasing a motorcycle, consider what maintenance is needed and any costs associated with buying tires, getting oil changes, and other maintenance tasks. 

Purchase Gear

When working out your motorcycle budget, don’t forget to factor in your riding gear. At a minimum, you need to have a DOT-certified helmet. Other equipment to consider purchasing include a riding jacket, boots, and gloves. 

Shop for Insurance

While shopping for your motorcycle, you will need to shop for insurance. So don’t forget to give us a call at Carr Insurance Group to learn about the insurance coverage available to motorcycle owners. 

Sign Up for Classes

Depending on your experience with driving a motorcycle, you might have to sign up for some driving and handling classes. If available, take your riding course before buying your motorcycle, so you can determine if getting one is the best choice for your riding abilities. 

Get ready to take your new motorcycle out driving in Maryville, TN, and don’t forget to call us beforehand to discuss your insurance coverage.
