Re: Sportbike Insurance...

Ok, first, TAKE THE CLASS! It's a fun weekend, you'll learn alot, and you get to skip taking a driving test (in most states). As for insurance, I also have state farm. I'm 36, married (married really drops your rates) Last ticket I had was when I was 17. I have an 07 Kawi ZX-6R ninja and my full coverage, $250 deductable, is $45 a month.
As for a bike, if you really want to save gas, have you looked at the new ninja 250? I know, it's a 250, but it's supposed to be a blast to ride, insurance should be CHEAP, mielage is incredible, the look like a 600, and a brand new one is $3500. NEW. Plus 250's really hold their value, so after a couple years if you want to sell you'll still do okay. Just a thought. Most of europe has a stepped license where you HAVE to start with something like a 125cc and then go up, and that's the smart way to learn. A 600 can get you killed without even trying, even if you try to take it easy. Mine will hit 85 in first gear, and the speed it can carry entering a corner has a definite pucker factor. Just think about it.
