A motorcycle is a two-wheeled vehicle powered by an engine. Motorcycles are one of the cheapest and most widespread forms of motorised transport for many parts of the world.
On a typical motorcycle the operator sits astride the vehicle on a seat, with their hands on a set of handlebars and their feet supported by footpegs. When the bike is at rest, the rider puts one or both feet on the ground. Engine speed is controlled by twisting the throttle on the right side handlebar grip with braking being controlled with a hand-lever and foot pedal.
Shifting of gear ratios is controlled by operating a foot lever with the clutch being operated by a hand lever. Steering is accomplished by trained application of slight turning of the handlebars.
To improve motorcycle safety many developed countries mandate the
wearing of protective clothing by motorcyclists, especially a
helmet. Other protective gear may include certain types of jackets,
gloves, boots, and pants. Jackets meant for motorcyclists are
typically made of nylon, leather, or Kevlar. These jackets typically
include heavy padding on the elbow, spine, and shoulder regions.
Gloves are generally made of leather or Kevlar and some include
carbon fiber knuckle protection. Boots, especially those for sport
riding, include reinforcement and plastic caps on the ankle and toe
areas. A well-protected motorcyclist will wear boots with heels that
fit on motorcycle foot rests (pegs) and provide good ankle support.
Pants are usually leather, nylon, or Kevlar. Except for helmets,
none of these items are required by law in any state in the U.S. but
are recommended by many of those who ride.
"Off road" riders wear a range of plastic armour to protect against
injury from falling off, hitting other riders and bikes, debris
kicked up from the rear wheel of leading bikes, and from running
into track barriers protecting the public. This armour protects the
extremities from breakage and dislocation and the back and chest
from strain and broken bones. Although fairly efficient, it is of
course not always completely effective. Many riders wear "roost
protectors" designed specifically to protect against painful debris
from other bikes, but are of no use in a fall or collision.
