The motorcycle is one of the vehicles we use in our lives. We can say that a motorcycle is the combination of an engine with a cycle. As we know, a motorcycle can be two-wheeled or three-wheeled. The idea came to the mind of Edward Butler from England while he was experimenting with his son’s cycle. His son’s cycle was a tricycle; he added a motor to that tricycle and did the experiment. The experiment paid off and was a success.
Everyone appreciated it and the news spread like wildfire everywhere. After reading the news, a German man named Gottlieb Daimler thought about it and created his own motor which he had attached to the bicycle. He completed his experiment in 1886 and built his own motorized bicycle. In 1901, Michael and Eugene Werner built the first motorcycle. Until the 20th century, no one used the word “motorcycle”. Later, a number of motorcycles were made which were two-wheel bikes, three-wheel bikes, sports bikes, mopeds, scooters, etc.
Most popular transport vehicle
Today, motorcycles are more popular than any other vehicle due to their looks and speed. They are cheaper and have higher performance compared to other vehicles. Previously, only men used to ride them, but due to their popularity and advancement, women also started to attract them. The companies not only introduce the expensive bikes but also launch the cheaper stylish bikes to make them available to all classes of people. Yamaha, Bajaj, Suzuki and Honda are the most popular motorcycle manufacturers in the market.
Security enhancements
As we all know that motorcycles are not safe compared to four wheelers, helmets were invented to increase safety. Many country and city governments have established a rule that it is compulsory to wear a helmet while riding a two-wheeler for the two people sitting on the motorcycle. It is good to introduce this law because as we know life is above everything.
If something bad happens to someone, it affects the whole family and even society. It would be beneficial for the government to launch camps to make people aware of the issue of safety regarding vehicles and their driving.
Economically
From an economic point of view, motorcycles are beneficial as they consume less fuel compared to other four-wheelers. Help save money and fuel for the next generation. As the population increases, so does fuel consumption, so if we want to save fuel for our next generation, we must go for motorcycles and not fuel-guzzling vehicles.
Less pollution
According to a survey, diesel produces more pollution compared to gasoline. Diesel or gasoline-powered cars are major contributors to pollution compared to motorcycles. So for our city to be green, clean and pollution free, we need to use motorcycles more compared to other vehicles. Not only this, but it helps save time as it generates less traffic due to its size. So, riding a motorcycle more and more but safely because life is very important.
