Financial & Time Savings

Affordable New Models

While second-hand vehicles can be a great option, they can also be disappointing. When you buy a new motorcycle or scooter from WhateverWheels, you have the full support of a manufacturer's warranty and our expert team in the event of any issues or servicing being required. A new ride gives you peace of mind from day one.

Save Time

Using a motorcycle or scooter for your daily commute can save you a significant amount of time. These savings primarily come from the ability to filter through congestion and traffic, which also makes your arrival time much more predictable. With a motorcycle, you spend less time sitting in traffic and more time riding!

Better Fuel Efficiency

With the price of fuel increasing, riding a motorcycle or scooter can save a considerable amount of money compared to a car. Many of our models can achieve well over 100+mpg without the need for heavily priced hybrid or electric systems. Your wallet will thank you!

Toll Charges & Urban Access

If you live in an area with tolls, you can save money by riding on two wheels. Motorcycles and scooters are often completely exempt or heavily reduced in cost. They are also exempt from the London Congestion Charge and most Clean Air Zones, making them ideal for city riding.

Lower Insurance Costs

Motorcycle and scooter insurance is often considerably cheaper than car insurance. For many young riders, the cost of a new motorbike, insurance, protective riding gear, and training can be less than the insurance cost alone on a car.

Safety, Community & Fun

Safe Riding & Cognitive Benefits

Studies have shown that riding a motorcycle raises cognitive functioning. It encourages you to be in the moment, shifting gears frequently and keeping your eye on the road for potential obstacles. The generally higher riding position allows for better anticipation of risks, and many insurance companies estimate that motorcyclists make better car drivers with a 20% better safety record. With government statistics supporting that motorcycling safety is at its best since 1921, motorcycling is much safer than many people are aware.

That being said, we always recommend that any rider invests in professional training and protective riding gear. The rider plays a much bigger factor in the outcome of an accident. The simple factor is that cars are designed to crash (with airbags and crumple zones) and motorbikes are not. A careful rider with the right protective equipment is a safe rider.

Easier Maintenance

While professional maintenance ensures your bike runs to its best ability and maintains its warranty, learning how to work on one isn't as daunting as you might think. We believe in empowering our customers with the choice to work on their own machines, and many of our models use simple, accessible engine designs.

Easier Parking

Finding a place to park is much easier on a motorcycle or scooter. The majority of parking areas have motorcycle-specific parking bays, many of which are available free of charge and without time restrictions.

It's Simply More Fun!

Riding a motorcycle or scooter is an exhilarating experience. When you're in a car, it's about getting from A to B. When you're on a bike, you get inspired to ride for fun! There's also a huge social aspect to motorcycling, with riders often greeting one another as they pass. You'll become part of a large, welcoming community of fellow enthusiasts who share your passion.
