In this video, I’ll be sharing my thoughts on some of the worst motorcycle trends I’ve seen lately. Let’s get started.
First up, aftermarket winglets. I understand their purpose in racing, but for the average rider, they’re just a silly addition. You don’t need them, and they don’t make your bike any faster.
Next, tassels on Harley grips. Again, what’s the point? They’re purely cosmetic and serve no practical purpose.
Another trend that drives me nuts is ape hangers on Harley-Davidsons. Why would you want handlebars so tall that they make it difficult to handle your bike? It’s like trying to ride a giraffe.
I’ve also seen people wearing dirt bike gear on sport bikes, which looks ridiculous. If you’re going to ride a sport bike, wear proper gear.
Lowering motorcycles is another trend I don’t understand. It makes your bike more susceptible to damage and reduces its overall performance.
And finally, helmet covers that turn your helmet into a character or object. Safety first, right? But a giant Elmo on your head is not going to protect you in a crash.
