Pocket Rocket or Crotch Rocket?

The words "pocket rocket" may have different meanings to some people. Here we'll use the term pocket rocket to describe a class of motorcycles generally in the 250cc range with general sport bike styling. These motorcycles may also be referred to as being quarter liter bikes.

So what are the major differences between a pocket rocket and a crotch rocket sport bike? A crotch rocket is generally a sport bike motorcycle in the 600cc or higher range and although probably are the most popular style of motorcycle, we are also seeing a lot of interest in the smaller or pocket rocket sport bike motorcycles. The pocket rocket motorcycles are being chosen by those riders that are looking for extreme fuel efficiency while still enjoying the benefits of a motorcycle compared to riding a smaller scooter style of bike. Pocket rockets are also being purchased by those that are beginning sport bike riders. People who want to get their motorcycle riding experience and confidence without having to do so on a much more powerful motorcycle. Pocket rockets are also a favorite of female riders due to their smaller size and easier handling.

Pocket rocket motorcycles are also a favorite of those who are looking to buy a motorcycle at a lower cost. New pocket rockets from Suzuki, Yamaha or Honda are generally priced with a manufacturers list price in the $4000.00 range, thus making this style of motorcycle an easier purchase for someone who is just starting out or for the very casual rider that may not have the time or the opportunity to ride very often, yet, still wants to have a motorcycle they can get out on and have some fun when they're ready.

Some pocket rocket motorcycles are also available in a cruiser style of motorcycle. Once again these cruisers have the same type of appeal to riders and buyers as those who a re looking for a sport bike style of ride. Long term affordability along with a smaller and easier handling bike make these a favorite of many motorcycle riders.
