Fall is here, but that doesn't mean that the motorcycle season is over. Fall is a great time to get out and enjoy the cool fall breeze as well as the change in colors of the landscape. With that in mind, there's no better time to find a great deal on a bike.

If you're looking to buy a new bike this fall, here are five motorcycles we recommend for women riders:

2015 Honda Rebel 250 Parallel Twin 250cc 

The Honda Rebel is a great beginner bike for the inexperienced motorcycle rider. This is a smaller, lightweight bike with a low seat height and awesome fuel economy for riding around town. Although it may not be the ideal long haul bike, it is perfect for your urban commute. With small maintenance of the drive chain and winterizing, the Honda Rebel is an excellent starter bike.

The 750 cc Honda Shadows offers great options for the more experienced motorcycle rider.  With a low center of gravity with added low seat height, this is one sturdy bike. The Honda Shadows comes with three different models, such as the Phantom, Aero, and Spirit—all offering black Arrow Fenders and bullet horn handlebars. Featuring a shaft drive, the Honda Shadows offers very low maintenance costs with a change in fluids once every few years. Learn more about the 2015 Honda Shadow Aero.

2016 Yamaha Bolt 950 cc

The 2015 Yamaha Bolt is a bigger, more powerful, and lighter bike than its predecessor. Offering a fuel-injected motor, with a 5-speed transmission, the Bolt offers a great ride around town with enough power for the open road. The Bolt also has a shorter wheelbase as well as low seat height for stability. Occasional maintenance is suggested such as tightening the belt drive train occasionally and replacing after 35,000 miles. Learn more about the 2016 Yamaha Bolt 950.
