  Are you trying to figure out the difference between two-wheeled vehicles? Or are you just trying to figure out which vehicle is best for you and your needs? Before going into your local powersports dealer near mid-Missouri , you’ll want to know the difference between dirt bikes and motorcycles. That way your dealer will be able to help you find a vehicle best suited for you.   It does get confusing trying to decipher different vehicles because different terms are thrown around and used interchangeably when referring to any type of powersport bike. Since the two look the same and have similar parts, everyone assumes they’re the same. Surdyke Yamaha is excited to present you with the distinction between these two bikes. Dirt Bikes   Crazy enough, just like the name, dirt bikes are made for off-roading and rougher terrain. That’s why you’ll notice that dirt bikes have knobby tires.

Typically, these vehicles have three or four tires depending on which vehicle you get. Interestingly enough, the tire pressure on ATVs tends to be lower than that of a UTVs. Usually most ATVs include a thumb throttle that...
