About Sport Motorcycles

Adrenaline junkies and thrill seekers will want to consider buying a sport bike. Read on to learn more about these high performing beasts of machines!

The Design

Weight is the enemy of speed, which is why sport motorcycles are crafted using lightweight materials. There are no unnecessary parts or accessories added just for aesthetics. Instead, a slender frame and streamlined design leads to a highly aerodynamic and agile motorcycle.

The Riding Position

Sport motorcycles require a forward-leaning riding position. The foot pegs are placed higher than other types of motorcycles, resulting in the legs being situated closer to the body. This riding position leads to improved control, which is especially important at high speeds.

The Categories

Sport motorcycles can be broken down into three main categories.

The first is lightweight models. With engines under 500cc, these sport bikes are ideal for new riders. They offer an exciting riding experience, but can still be easily controlled by beginner riders.

The next is the middleweight category. Their engines range from 500cc to 800cc. They are ideal for more advanced riders wanting to hit higher speeds cruising around town.

Then there is the superbike category. Their engines are often over 1,000cc. These models offer exceptional agility, acceleration, power, and handling. It's common to see these sport bikes out on the race track.
