4. How to choose truly the right motorcycle according to your license?
Short trip goal?
For simple trips in town or around the station, a 125cc accessible A1 is sufficient.
Practical, lightweight, easy to handle
Objective weekend?
For an outing of 1 to 2 days, especially if you ride in a duo or want a bit of versatility, aim for a A2 motorcycle type Honda NX500 or Royal Enfield Interceptor.
Comfort, stability, and enough power to enjoy.
Goal travel or mountain?
To leave for several days or tackle more demanding roads, a A like the Africa Twin, the F900 GS or the Transalp is more consistent.
Better wind protection and more adapted behavior over long distances.
Objective: discovery/getting started?
If you want to test several bikes before choosing your future model, rent a A2 over 2 to 3 days is the best option.
It gives you time to see what's really right for you.
