If you've been considering getting yourself a cruiser motorcycle, it's important to consider the inherent traits and characteristics that make someone an ideal owner. Read on to learn more about the ideal owner for an incredible Harley-Davidson® cruiser bike.

Enthusiasm for the Open Road

A natural affinity for the road is key. Cruiser motorcycles are designed for superior performance, and as such, owners need to have a love for traveling through open highways.

Appreciating the Journey

Ideal cruiser motorcycle owners relish not just the destination, but also the journey. Choosing cruising over speed, they value soaking in their surroundings rather than racing down roads.

Mechanical Aptitude

Those who own cruiser motorcycles display some degree of mechanical aptitude. You don't have to be a mechanic yourself, but having the curiosity and willingness to learn about your bike’s mechanics can enhance your owner's experience significantly.

Innate Desire for Personalization 

Harley-Davidson® cruiser motorcycles are often customized to reflect their owner's personality, from paint jobs to custom seats and handlebars. Therefore, if customization excites you and you like creating something uniquely yours, you might be an ideal fit for owning a cruiser motorcycle.

While these qualities can influence whether you might be an ideal owner of a cruiser motorcycle, at Bayside Harley-Davidson®, we believe that one of the most important traits is simply passion—passion for adventure, and a passion for freedom on two wheels!
