What is the best commuter motorcycle?

The ideal commuter motorcycle offers you performance, comfort and good economy. You might want to consider the BMW G310GS model. The light motorcycle offers easy control, a powerful brake system and a one-cylinder, four-stroke engine which will give you the performanceyou need to do the daily commute.

Is commuting on a motorcycle safe?

As well as saving you money, commuting on a motorcycle is often argued to be safer than a car. Avoiding rush hour traffic and busy motorways is a favourable option. Just remember to have safety measures in place such as hi-vis clothing and a protective helmet.

Which motorcycles have good fuel economy?

You should consider looking at The Royal Enfield 250-cc and the HondaRebel for a fuel-efficient motorcycle. Both of these models can do around 84mpg when ridden properly. The Suzuki TU250X also offers over80mpg.

Is commuting by motorcycle cheaper than by car?

You will find you can ride your motorcycle for a higher miles-per-gallon rate. Just looking at BMW, you are likely to get around 40mpgwhen riding one of their top motorcycle models compared to 36mpg when driving a BMW 1 series for example. You should also take tax and insurance into account. With average motorcycle insurance being around £300 and tax less than £100, you could save hundreds on this cost.
