While Asia leads the globe in using motorcycles for transportation, the US focuses mainly on leisure, with nearly half of all motorcyclists riding less than 1000 miles per year!

This episode of Throttle & Roast discusses the differences between leisure riding and transportation riding. It explores how riding habits vary by region, such as in Asia, Europe, and the United States. In Asia, motorcycles are commonly used for transportation due to their affordability, while in Europe, motorcycles are used for both leisure and commuting. In the United States, Harley-Davidson is a prominent brand, and many riders focus on leisure riding due to the availability of larger, more expensive bikes. The episode provides insights into the unique riding tendencies in each region and the factors that influence them.
