Women have to ride their adventure motorcycles differently than those that are taller and stronger. That doesn't mean women can't ride or shouldn't ride adventure motorcycles, it just has to be different. And different isn't always a bad thing. The skill women learn are some that a lot of men could benefit from learning themselves.Please consider joining the CLEAR Moto Patreon page:https://patreon.com/CLEARMotowithCassieMaier?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink

An accessory, by definition means; a thing which can be added to something else in order to make it more useful, versatile, or attractive. For decades, women have been used in advertising and at motorcycle events since motorcycle still remains a male dominated sport. Cassie dives into what she thinks of women as accessories in the motorcycle industry, how it has effected her, and how it was a fuel to her flame.To join the CLEAR Moto Patreon page:https://patreon.com/CLEARMotowithCassieMaier?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink

Riding like a girl is something you DO want! Because (generally) most women are shorter on their adventure motorcycles, and don't have the same strength than men do. Women have to learn to ride adventure motorcycles differently. That usually means we have better balance, finesse, and control. It takes time to build up those skills, but once you learn them, their yours to keep.To join the CLEAR Moto Patreon page: https://patreon.com/CLEARMotowithCassieMaier?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkEven for those with long legs and more strength, these girly skills are worth learning. Give it a shot and imagine what the world would look like from 5'4" on top of a large adventure motorcycle.

"This isn't just a ladies problem." Adventure motorcycles are tall, sometimes heavy, and fall over (not because they aren't balanced, but because riding off-road is hard). However, adventure motorcycles are not easy and this doesn't just impact women, it impacts everyone. What makes it challenging has more to do with your body type and what you are or are not willing to manage. Leg length, strength, and old injuries or physical limitations. You then need to sort out what you can manage and ride a motorcycle that fits your wants and needs. There are a lot of options out there for you to pick from. There are even more options to adjusting the motorcycle further so it fits you. You can lower it, change out the seat, put new hand grips on it, and the list goes on. However, training is going to be your best bet. With proper, professional, and supportive training, you will have an increase in your confidence, proficiency, and control. All of which will help you ride and manage your adventure motorcycle with greater ease. That is the point after all, isn't it?To join the CLEAR Moto Patreon page:https://patreon.com/CLEARMotowithCassieMaier?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink
