Dual-sport motorcycles are essentially dirt bikes that also sport the features necessary to be street legal (license plate holders, turn signals, and brake lights). They’re quickly gaining popularity due to the many benefits of owning one. If you’re interested in learning more about dual-sport motorcycles, check out this guide from the experts at East Bay Motorsports! 

Get Impressive Flexibility

The biggest benefit of owning a dual-sport motorcycle is the flexibility that comes with being able to ride both on the streets and off-road. Unlike traditional dirt bikes, dual-sport motorcycles can simply be driven to faraway trails rather than needing to be towed. Many dual-sport motorcycle owners do trail riding on the weekends and use their motorcycle as a commuter vehicle during the week itself. 

Enjoy Many Safety Perks

Dual-sport motorcycles are essentially dirt bikes with a few additions, so they have the same suite of robust safety features you would expect from a dirt bike. These safety features are often just as useful on the road as they are on the trail. This makes dual-sport motorcycles some of the safest bikes on the market. 

Get Impressive Durability

Dual-sport motorcycles are built to handle off-road conditions. These motorcycles need to be durable so that they can handle whatever the trail throws at them. As a result, a properly maintained dual-sport motorcycle can last for years and years before needing to be replaced.
