1. You Prioritize Rider Comfort
Different categories of motorcycles focus on different riding experiences. With touring motorcycles, it's all about a comfortable endurance riding. H-D touring models are created for the long-distance ride and offer features such as extended fairings to reduce wind fatigue, ergonomic design in the frame, and comfortable seats. Some owners use their bikes to get to work each day. Others tackle overnight road trips. Whatever your long-distance rides look like, you'll stay comfortable every mile you ride.
2. You Want Lots of Storage
A safe and comfortable motorcycle ride requires certain gear, such as a first aid kit, miniature tool kit, waterproof outerwear in case it rains, water, and so on. If you will be spending the night somewhere, then you will also need clothing, toiletries, medications, and more. All of this cargo needs to go somewhere.
H-D touring motorcycles offer plenty of storage options. You'll find it easy to fit everything you need. Go ahead and pack those "just in case" items, you've got the room!
3. You Want Larger Fuel Tanks
Many touring motorcycles are made with larger fuel tanks. Enjoy hitting the open road and going longer before needing to visit a gas station. This will give you more time on the road rather than stopped at a gas station waiting to refill. It'll also allow you to explore routes in more remote areas where there are fewer gas stations.
4. You Want to Ride with a Passenger
An easy way to make a ride more fun is to bring a family member or friend along. But not all motorcycles can handle a second rider. Fortunately, many H-D touring motorcycles do! There is plenty of seating space for you both to have enough legroom. The engine will also be built to accommodate the extra weight without sacrificing performance. Share your love of riding with your loved ones - and watch them have the time of their life.
5. You Want a Stable Riding Experience
No one wants to feel out-of-control on the open road, struggling to control a wobbling motorcycle. H-D touring motorcycles tend to be larger than the competitors. The extra weight and size results in improved stability. Enjoy riding on winding roads or on windy days and feel fully in control the entire time.
6. You Want to Enjoy Easy Customization
H-D touring motorcycles, like other Harley bikes, are made for easy customization. Owners can tweak and alter their motorcycle to better suit their lifestyle. Harley-Davidson offers an impressive range of accessories, allowing you to get the upgrade you want and peace of mind knowing it'll be compatible with your motorcycle. The company even makes upgrade packages, which allows you to get multiple parts all at once. You can change everything from your motorcycle's appearance to storage options to lighting, making it easy to optimize your motorcycle for your lifestyle.
