What are the common themes in motorcycle fiction stories?

Adventure is a big theme. Riders set out on journeys, not knowing what they'll encounter. It could be a new landscape, a strange person, or a difficult situation. Also, a sense of self - discovery is common. As they ride, they learn more about themselves. For example, a character might start a trip feeling lost but end up finding their purpose. Another theme could be the bond between the rider and the motorcycle itself. The bike is not just a machine but a trusted companion.

Mechanical failures are quite common. Like the engine suddenly dying or the brakes failing when you're on a steep hill. Another theme is getting lost. It can be really scary when you're in an unfamiliar area with no idea how to get back.

Rebellion. Motorcycle club members are often depicted as rebels against the mainstream society.

Nervousness is a very common element. People are often scared of falling or losing control during their first ride. Another common thing is the sense of excitement. It's a new experience, after all. Also, the feeling of the wind and the engine's vibration are often mentioned.

The motorcycle in Pulp Fiction is a symbol of coolness and freedom. It adds to the edgy and stylish atmosphere of the movie.

One of the best is 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance' by Robert M. Pirsig. It's not just about motorcycles but also about self - discovery and philosophy during a motorcycle journey.

The motorcycle in Pulp Fiction is a chopper. It has a very cool and distinct look which adds to the overall edgy and stylish atmosphere of the movie.

In fiction stories, survival can be a theme. Characters might be in a post - apocalyptic world or lost in the wilderness, fighting to stay alive. Redemption is also seen frequently. A character who has made mistakes tries to make up for them. And there's the theme of power, whether it's political power, magical power or just the power of knowledge. Characters may strive for it, abuse it or try to resist it.

I have no idea whose motorcycle it is. Maybe it belongs to a character we haven't been introduced to yet.
