Street Bike/Insurace

[Punk'd]

I plan on buying a street bike in the coming years. Prolly when im 18 or so, but I was looking into a CBR600RR or something like that. Any Ideas on insurance. Prolly going to be out the roof because I also have a truck.

Any bike reccomendations etc? Thanks

keep your record clean and buy the bike outright. if you have a loan on the bike you have to have full coverage. if you own it outright you can have liability only.

figure like 3k for full coverage at 18 on a 600rr.

i was 19 on a cruising bike with liablilty only at 850 a year.

if a parent or older friend is willing to put the bike on thier insurance that can save you some serious money. but they have to own it not you. just make sure they set you up as a driver. it will still make it higher but that way they can't get mad if you were driving it if something were to happen.

im 23 and my first quote on my 600rr with full coverage was 3600:( a year, i did another quote a month ago and it went down to 3 grand, but i bought the bike outright and i only have liability which is 599 a year, it just depends on the state/driving record, etc, just call around and get some free quotes and that will get you in the ballpark

i am quoted at 411$ from progressive on a cbr600RR... i'm 20 with a perfect record...

[mickey400ex]

is that $411 a month or a year?

[Punk'd]

Yeah, Ill prolly go the cheapest way possible since I already have a truck payment and insurance for it.

Anyone reccomend anything besides a 600rr? If anyone owns one let me know how you like it and how it preforms etc..

Thanks,
Randy

In NYS i pay $180 for a year!!! and im 19 riding an 1999 r1 with a not so good record!!!!

geico and alstate quoted me at over 2000$

state farm wouldnt do it

I went to another company which is really progressive and they wanted 205$ before the msf course then the knocked it down to 180$

Get a GSX-R600 Randy !

Progressive quoted me at 1600 a year and like 130 a month. How is that?

Is a 600rr a good bike? Does it feel and ride good? How does it preform and will I be happy?:D

[JJs450r]

They say the Kawasaki ZzR-600 is one the best Rider Friendly bikes out i think its gonna be my first bike :-D but gmac i believe is where he went through for his insurance

Edit: o ya btw around here a bike over 1000cc cant be fully covered by insurance

Age...age.. age.. gender...model.. and location.

I know you're thinking, "that's crap". But, be honest.. if you had a CBR600RR what are the odds that you'd drive it below the speed limit 100% of the time.. and never ride a wheelie down the street?

At 31.. in KC my quote from progressive would be $34.57/mo.

Get an SV650 or FZ6, something along the lines of that. Still very fast bikes but the insurance is considerably less because it's not classified as a high performance race bike.
