Guide to 2014 Motorcycles and Scooters
July 31, 2014
It’s good to dream. Especially when that dream is about riding your brand new motorcycle or scooter… or about riding all of the brand new 2014 motorcycles and scooters.
Now, newbie riders should consider starting out on a tough used cycle before they buy anything shiny and new. You will want to get all your mistakes and motorcycle-dropping days behind you before purchasing one of these beauties. But, in the mean time, it’s good to dream.
Savvy buyers begin researching their motorcycle options early. This allows plenty of time to read, review, and compare models. It also gives cash-strapped buyers more time to save money while they research and test drive.
A good place to begin any auto-buying adventure is a quick stop by Consumer Reports. Read the buying guides, the consumer reviews, the latest news and all of the great advice to get educated about your options.

Motorcycle Reliability
July 25, 2014
You don’t buy a motorcycle because it looks cool – well, not only because it looks cool. You buy a motorcycle because it fits your lifestyle. Whether you’re just learning, commuting, touring or off-roading, the bike you choose will need to be reliable enough to survive its purpose.
Lucky for us, the good folks at Consumer Reports have done the research for us on motorcycle reliability. Their previous anecdotal research has been combined with a motorcycle reliability survey to come up with a list of common motorcycle repairs. This list shows bikers what exactly can go wrong, so they can be prepared to make a smarter decision when motorcycle shopping.
