Hello again Lemmy! I have another question.
Context: I took a motorcycle safety class, was nervous but enjoyed it, researched motorcycles, found a few I liked, talked to a dealer about them but ultimately, I couldn’t finalize a deal, talked myself out of it basically
I was curious how others might justify a purchase that has no purpose other than wanting something.
For clarity, I don’t need anyone to justify me buying a motorcycle. I want to read about your thought processes for buying something you want 🙂
As always thanks for replying and have an awesome day/night!!
I have actually found valid reasons to own a motorcycle:
any trip on the bike is 60 % less gas than by car
my occasional commute from rural to city: car needs to be put in a garage for 25 € / 8 hrs. Bike rides up the elevator to the office, free.
riding saves up the car for the winter, when it’s most needed.
bike maintenance is cheap and diy-able.
the pleasure of riding: priceless.
This is great! Thank you for sharing!
Sadly, for me, it would just be pleasure riding. I was looking for ways to make it more valid but, I can’t find any.
