Benefits of Dual Sport Motorcycles

You crave soaring down the open highway, enjoying the views, taking the corners, smelling the forest and the new-mown hay. And you also want to peel off the main roads and down some dirt tracks and trails looking for adventure.

Good news – a dual sport bike lets you have it all. These machines are designed to provide a perfect balance of on-road and off-road performance. Check it all off your list: commuting, errands, road trips, backroads adventures, and off-road maneuvers.

Robust Features

You can think of a dual sport bike as the original motorcycle. Back when the first innovators were developing motorized two-wheelers, there were far more dirt roads than there are today. Those early bikes were designed to perform equally well on paved and unpaved surfaces. In other words, there’s over a century of innovation, experiments, and improvements contributing to the capabilities of these bikes.

Expect all the standard safety features of a street bike, such as headlights, turn indicators, cargo carrying, speedometer, and horn. With less focus on being lightweight, they have bigger fuel tanks than dirt bikes. They also demand less maintenance than an off-road bike. 

Monster Performance

Can these beasts hold up both on and off the pavement? Absolutely. They are specifically designed to offer the thrilling performance you want. In other words: you can hit those top speeds on the pavement, and also tear it up the dirt. Tall suspension and durable, knobby tires ensure that you can safely share the highway and also dominate the trails.
