If you’re looking for an incredible adventure, then we highly suggest that you visit Europe and make your way through various old-world countries. The best way to do that, of course, is on the back of a hog. Don’t believe us? Here are eight reasons why we’re right:
- More Cost Effective: Renting a car can be expensive, as is fuel and other costs associated with it. As long as you make sure that your bike doesn’t have cheap motorcycle parts, you will be saving a lot of money overall.
- More Adventurous: As long as you have a decent helmet, you can go anywhere you want, including off the road. Renting a bike means that you are not beholden to the path most traveled.
- More Attentive: When you see the country through a windshield, it takes a lot of the majesty out of the experience. Because we’re so used to driving in a car, we tend to shut our brains off when behind the wheel. That doesn’t happen on a bike, and you see things you would otherwise miss.

- Less Baggage: If you plan on seeing the sights from the back of your hog, then you have to make sure that you pack light. Too often we bring more than what we need because we have space, but traveling by motorcycle means you’re more efficient.
- More Sightseeing: With the road stretched out in front of you can go anywhere you want, as well as stop anytime you feel like it. Parking a bike is much easier than a car meaning so you can pause and drink in the sights more often.
- Less Stress: For many bikers, riding on the open road is the way to get to nirvana. If that sounds like you, then you owe it to yourself to rent a motorcycle for your journey.
- More Options: With a car, you are limited as to where you can go and how you can get there. With a bike, you have unlimited potential, which means that you can add extra stops along your way to enrich the overall experience.
- Less Hassle: If you go across borders, you will have a much easier time on the back of a bike as you won’t have to wait for a full vehicle inspection. Plus parking is always available for a motorcycle.
Overall, there are far more benefits to renting a bike to see Europe than any downsides. Just be sure not to get cheap motorcycle parts, and you’ll be fine.
