MOTORRÄDER STERBEN AUS – hier ist der Grund

Motorradfahren verliert an Bedeutung – immer weniger junge Menschen interessieren sich für Motorräder, während E-Roller, TikTok & Co. die neue Normalität sind. In diesem Video spreche ich offen darüber, warum Motorradfahren in Deutschland langsam ausstirbt und was sich in unserer Gesellschaft verändert hat.
Wenn du selbst Motorrad fährst oder die Entwicklung kritisch siehst: Das ist dein Video.

🔍 Was dich im Video erwartet:
– Warum Jugendliche kein Interesse mehr an Motorrädern haben
– Die Rolle von TikTok, Dopamin-Junkies & fehlender Aufmerksamkeitsspanne
– Früher: Easy Rider, Sons of Anarchy, Terminator – heute? Fehlanzeige
– Einstiegspreise, Bürokratie & EU-Regularien machen es schwer
– Streckensperrungen, Führerscheinpreise, Verbote: Der Staat hilft nicht
– Wird Motorradfahren ein Luxus-Hobby für Wenige?

📣 Schreib deine Meinung in die Kommentare – vielleicht bist du selbst Teil der „letzten Generation“, die das Motorradfahren noch wirklich lebt.

Hello friends and welcome
to a new video on my channel. Today there will probably
be a lot of people here who don’t know me yet. This video isn’t just aimed
at Harley riders, but at all motorcyclists and anyone who’s
thinking about becoming one. Today we’re going to talk about why I
think that motorcycling could possibly die out in Germany.
That’s obviously very provocative. What I mean by that and what it’s about today is exactly
what I’ll be talking about. I’ll explain it to you on the road, because we’re motorcyclists. That
means we’ll see each other on the road and discuss the rest there. I’m
out here on my 2023 Harley Davidson Lowrider S.
I’ve completely rebuilt it, and that’s what we’re out on today. For those
who don’t know me yet , this video isn’t just aimed at my
usual viewers, which are mostly Harley riders. This
video is aimed at every motorcyclist and anyone
who’s thinking about becoming one, because we definitely need
new talent, and that’s where we get to the topic. I think I’ll use the new
generation of current youth as a brief context for you. I’m
currently 27, so Especially for a Harley rider, I’m still relatively young. I
think that the generations that come after me will be less and less
interested in motorcycling. And you can already see that.
I work at a Harley- Davidson dealership and we notice it
with the potential customers, of course, that there aren’t many young people
coming up, even though the brand has actually geared its bikes and everything else towards
younger people in recent years, apart from
the price point, of course. We’ll come to that later in
another point in this video. I want to start with point 1, and
I think that the accessibility and the initial hurdle to
start riding a motorcycle is higher than ever. We’re currently going
through difficult times, economically speaking, for many people. Everyone has to
watch their backs. Nobody is going to let anyone take advantage of them anymore,
and that’s the same with motorcycles. Let’s be
honest, a motorcycle license has become extremely expensive, so I
don’t know exactly how much you pay for it. €3,500 for sure, if you add on €1,000
for decent protective equipment that you need to get your
license. do yes then you’re already at 4500 € or so and you
don’t have a motorbike yet. If you then want to buy a halfway decent first
motorbike let’s say maybe add another 5000 and
you’re at almost 10,000 € until you can actually
ride your own motorbike for the first time and that ‘s really, really steep.
When I got my licence a few years ago I thought it was expensive
but this is now really next level and I have to
say I can understand that. People prefer to spend their money on other things.
They have a different focus, are doing an apprenticeship and simply have
little money at their disposal in these years when you’re getting into the brands
and if the accessibility is crap or expensive
then the whole thing obviously makes it very , very, very difficult. The same goes for
the fuel costs, the insurance and everything else. Everything is getting more and more expensive
and the motorbikes too. We see it with Harley, the cheapest
entry-level model, let’s say, with the Night that we have, I think it’s 17,18,000
€ that was way too much money before. You could get started with €8,000 to €10,000
with an old sports car. That ‘s not possible anymore, and so
you lose that access to the youth. That’s the
financial side of it, let’s say, which I think plays a big part. You can
write to me in the comments how you see it. I think what
also plays a big role is the zeitgeist, namely
today’s youth. It sounds pretty harsh coming from a 27-year-old.
They are extremely different to my generation, especially people
born in 2000 and up. Things have changed exponentially,
because that was also the time when social media and
all these dope-oriented media, which
only require a short attention span, really took off.
So in my youth, we were outside and
rode around on our bikes, or as we got older, scooters
and Mofera, the interest in mobility and technology was much, much higher,
because we didn’t want to hang around at home. Otherwise
it was boring, of course, you could play PlayStation 1 or PlayStation 2 for a bit, but it
‘s not comparable to today. Just through the internet, they’re already
socializing at home on their mobile phones at a very young age,
via smartphones. That means they don’t even have to meet in real life anymore. And then it
doesn’t happen that I have to go to a friend’s house who lives maybe 5 km
away, which is maybe too far for me to cycle to as a young person
, and then maybe annoy my parents by paying for a
scooter license for me. And that’s the kind of thing that
gets you into motorcycling. With the interest in motorbikes and scooters, that’s
not the case anymore. So that’s where I really see the problem in this
doping-dominated society with endless scrolling on TikTok.
They don’t even concern themselves with it anymore and they’re obviously frying
their brains with such media and that ‘s pretty crazy. This
interest in transportation is only tied to strange e-scooters that don’t
bring with it any emotions and, I don’t know, that obviously plays into our
hands. I don’t want everything there.
badmouthing there are of course really great aspects to this
whole topic right, well we used to have to call home phones somehow,
they don’t have to do that now, they can arrange it on WhatsApp who knows what else
but I think this new generation is very, very, very difficult
for the topic of motorcycling but yes, write me in the comments
what you think about this point the next point is very clear our
politics be it from the EU or now also in Germany the
state there are more and more regulations there are more and more bans the
feeling of freedom which made motorcycling what it is is of course becoming
less and less because why do people ride a motorbike because they want to forget all their worries
because they don’t want to think about anything or problems
for the hour they spend sitting on the box but when I have to worry before I ride
whether some policeman will stop me again even though everything
is legal and registered and it will cause some kind of stress or whether I can ride here or
there because there is a road closure somewhere where I
‘m not allowed to ride my motorbike well that ‘s no fun anymore
right, freedom is being massively restricted the 9 Euro standards restrict
our sound, that limits the conversion potential, and especially for
younger people, converting the engine and putting a loud
exhaust on it is an absolute temptation , right, if you’re new to it, then
that’s what makes it all about, and of course that’s becoming less and less because it’s
becoming more and more banned, and I see that as a huge premium, I
don’t think it’s in the political interest to, let’s say,
encourage motorcycling, but rather they want to push through their agenda, their
do-gooder politics with climate protection and things like that, don’t get me wrong, everyone
with three brain cells knows that climate protection is important, but everyone with
four brain cells, which is unfortunately not always the case with our politicians,
knows that an e-scooter or an e-car won’t necessarily
save the world, we have much, much bigger problems, especially
when much larger countries and continents
don’t give a damn about climate protection, and we little Germany try to save the world again,
but I think that’s a different topic, I do
n’t want to open that can of worms, I think among us motorcyclists, we’re
probably all in that mood anyway. relatively similar view, the last point that I would also
like to make with this is that
motorcycling is no longer as cool with young people as it used to be,
I think there are a bit of a lack of heroes, in the past I had the feeling
there were more films, series and other things that basically used motorcycling as a stylistic flaw
to create a certain coolness, I’ll give
you a couple of examples for the older ones among you, let’s take
Arnold Schwarzenegger, for example, who jumped off the bridge
in Terminator on his Harley Davidson Fatboy, after that the sales of the
Harley Fatboy shot through the roof because it was of course just cool
and everyone wanted to ride one and the young people suddenly thought it
was cool and so on because Arnold Schwarzenegger and so on, that was just
awesome, then maybe there’s a Harley reference from the series, I’m
an H rider, that’s why I’m thinking of these things with the S series of
Anakey, which basically covered this motorcycle club thing
a bit and cool guys on motorcycles and other things and also
incorporated the theme of customizing because the motorcycles were all modified were and
things like that and that definitely shaped a whole generation and
got a lot of people into motorcycling and that ‘s a good thing regardless of whether you
like the series or not, it’s definitely positive and yes, I could
probably go on like this for half an hour, just be
dependent on Harley, for example, Ryan Gosling in what was it called again, Beyond
the Pines or something like that on his old one, what was it, I don’t know, some kind of
Honda or some kind of dirt bike, a white one, there were so many
things where the motorcycle was simply used as a cool stylistic tool
in Hollywood and I have the feeling that it’s not
done like that anymore these days, at least not to such an extreme and I think that young
people, especially in times of social media and everything else, just
need role models that they can look up to, hey look at that, that’s cool and so
on, to end on a positive note, I think that influencers in the motorcycle sector in particular
still have the last positive influence, that’s
one of the reasons why I I started a German-language YouTube channel here.
For years I only made content on Instagram and things like that,
purely internationally on the topic of Harley Davidson motorcycles, and I
built up a very large reach there. And now a few months ago
I started this channel here to simply do something purely German for our
community here and also to get younger people into
riding motorcycles and especially to the Harley Davidson brand and to show that it
‘s also something for younger people. And I think I’m also talking
to all influencers. Everyone who makes motorcycle content definitely has a
positive influence. Let’s not care if someone
does wheelies or something like that in their videos and that maybe leads people to do stupid things,
but as long as people get interested in the whole thing,
I think it’s a win for the motorcycle fans. Yes, that’s all. M Take on that.
I thought it would be a really exciting topic outside of our Harley bubble
. I’d like to work on topics about motorcycles more often in the future
and move away from the pure Harley Davidson topic. Um, yes,
please tell me what you think. What is your Opinion on the topic do you see it
similarly do you see it differently how could this problem possibly be solved and
new incentives created for the new generation
and then I’m looking forward to reading your comments and
discussing things with you make sure you give it a thumbs up
subscribe to the channel if you don’t want to miss anything more over 70% of viewers
have not subscribed to the channel it’s completely free and you’re supporting
me so I’d say see you next time take care
and go for it we were all a bit worried that the Euro 5 Plus
standard would ruin all the fun of the sound as you know I love the 23
Low Rider S which means I have a very good comparison I know the
bike inside and out and I will give you honest feedback as to whether
the whole thing is really still worth it or
