Social media groups for motorcyclists

Whether you’re learning to ride a motorbike or you’re a two-wheel veteran, getting involved in a motorcycling community can give you fresh perspective on riding, and help you make friends with similar interests.

There are groups you can join and participate in, and pages you can follow. And, of course, remember that you can always join a motorcycle club, such as the Italian Motorcycle Owner’s Club, where you can go out and meet fellow riders.

Facebook

Specific models

There are a huge number of groups dedicated to specific bikes, but you will need to search because not many are located in NZ.

If you like a specific style of bike then there are groups for bike styles like cafe racers – just search in Facebook as above.

Google+

Look for communities to join if you want to post items, or you can follow a page and at it to your circles.

NZ Bikers: Has just over 50 members. For NZ Motorcycle enthusiasts to share great rides, stories and news. Sharing what we have and enhancing NZ as a premier biking destination.

NZ Motorcycle Cruiser Group: Has over 35 members and is for people who ride tourers and cruisers

NZ Sport Bike Riders: Has over 70 members and is for riders of sport bikes.

LinkedIn

LinkedIn is more business-focused, and there’s nothing specifically for New Zealand, unless you want to follow a specific company. However, there are global groups such as Motorbikes Professionals, Directors on Motorbikes and Executives on Motorbikes.

You will also find groups for specific marques such as Triumph Classic Motorcycles, Worldwide Harley Davidson Owners Group, Motorcycle Industry Professionals and Honda Motorcycle Owners and Enthusiasts.

Forums

Kiwi Biker: this is probably the largest forum in NZ for bike talk.

Twitter

Twitter doesn’t have groups, but you can follow influential motorcyclists by searching for them by name, or you can search specific hashtags such as #scrambler.
