The Vehicle Type

Street-Legal Options

If your priority is an agile and thrilling means of getting around town, the best bet for you is likely going to be a motorcycle or scooter. Scooters can have limited speed but are economical and efficient. Touring bikes are great for long journeys, cruisers focus on aesthetics and balance, and sports bikes are designed for speed.

Off-Roading

To crash through and over natural terrain, one option is a dirt bike, also called an off-road motorcycle. These are agile, slim, lightweight, and durable powersports vehicles. There are also dual sport, enduro, and adventure motorcycle models that can navigate paved roads and off-road riding, each to different degrees.

ATVs (also called quads) are sturdy, four-wheeled off-road vehicles with more power and traction. UTVs (also called side-by-sides) are even larger and have more car-like qualities, including a cab with rollover protection, a steering wheel, bench seating, and even sometimes seatbelts. Both are great for work, too, capable of towing and hauling supplies and material and working with some implements and attachments.

Specialized Vehicles

For something specific to winter wonderlands, snowmobiles are designed to navigate the snow and can be built either for recreation or work. PWCs (personal watercraft), however, are compact machines designed for thrills on the water.

Your Needs

Make a wishlist of the specific qualities you absolutely need in a powersports vehicle. Consider whether you’ll need cargo-hauling capacity for work or long trips, extra seating for passengers, and where exactly you intend to ride it to land on the right type and model.

Budget

Before you start your hunt in earnest, you’ll want a firm budget to keep your bank and wallet safe from overspending. Plan around financing, which will require 10-20% of the vehicle’s price upfront and the rest in monthly installments with interest.
