KennyFKINPowerz Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Keep the stang. I bought my first bike last summer and raced it and rode it all year. I sold it in like September. They are a lot of fun and you can go fast real cheap but they have some major downsides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
street pilot Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Judging from your sig, you have a beater and the stang. Sell the beater, and put that money towards a bike. Get a loan for the rest, work your ass off and pay the loan off in a year. Also, have you ever ridden one? If not, try to. Maybe that will help you decide for yourself.

Tell him Jon Paton referred you (this will help me out). They do insurance based solely on engine size, and not type of bike.

Nitrousbird Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Originally posted by Neo Pee: I've all ways thought that until I talked to a few people who actually owned bikes. Mostly young guys with crotch rockets too. They never told me anything that was that bad, most of them were paying less for full coverage on a bike that I was paying for liability on my Talon (~80/mth). But one should all ways check before they get anything else; I was very surprised that my insurance isn't a lot higher now that I have the Audi. I wouldn't hold my breath with 4 speeding tickets in 5 months though. graemlins/eek2.gif <---- Owns a sport bike. Very happy I never had full coverage on it.

Very happy I never had full coverage on it. +1 I held full coverage for one year, then I wised up. State farm is cheap, but only if you have other vehicles with them. Progressive takes pretty well to bikers. (I have all of my vehicles with them) It will probably be cheapest wherever the rest of your cars are. good decision! Let us know when you get it!

They expect people to pay half of what their bike costs for insurance, when the company will just total the bike when it's wrecked anyway? Douchebags.
