Which motorcycles should I be looking at?
I’m interested in getting a bike but I don’t know what kind, or what brands would be best for me. Durability is of great importance. I’d need a little space though I’m a pretty light packer, a side car maybe? I’ll be living traveling long distances frequently. Any brands or bikes that come to mind?

My dad bought a Harley Super Glide a few years back and has had absolutely no problems with it.
I strongly reccomend that you take a MSF course before buying.
At the MSF course you will get a chance to ride different motorcycles. I fell in love with a Vulcan that I rode to get my MSF certification. Unfortunately for me I had already purchased a bigger bike (Harley Street Bob) which I then had to get used to. To this day I miss the awesome fit and the way that Vulcan responded.
Things to consider when getting a bike:
Size you are comfortable with- go to dealerships and try them out.
Weight of bike- some weigh as much as 800#.
Also keep in mind the terrain you will be on. If you ride on dirt at all you will want a bike that will handle well off road while still street legal.
If you’re looking for comfort, not speed, get a Harley. Sit on a few and see what fits your needs and personality.

I’m partial to Kawasaki myself. I have a ZR 750 right now. I ride everywhere. My Kawasaki has been very dependable and durable.
@evelyns_pet_zebra Harleys are cool, but they are to expensive for what they are. I like my Kawi
