    It looks like you dont have much of a choice. I want a ninja 250 as well and got a quote for a cbr125 but insurance is still the same. I was also told by the broker that if I wait a year (when my M1 license matures to a year) it will drop from 3500 to 1700. Because I am poor... I have made the decision to just wait that year as much as I want to ride unless something happens like I win the lottery or something

    It is still covered under your policy. The coverage is Direct Compensation-Property Damage which is a mandatory coverage.

    I think Facility would be less than $6000.

    You don't need the ombudsman to get hooked up with a Facility Association policy. I believe all brokers have the capability of quoting you with Facility.

    Yes, you can get a policy with only mandatory coverages. Collision and Comprehensive are optional. Collision will be expensive for a 16yo, but since your likelihood of having your ride stolen is no different whether you are 16yo or 60yo, your Comprehensive premium will be the same as someone older. I would advise that you purchase Comprehensive coverage, just in case. Not only are bikes stolen, but they can also be "tapped" and knocked over in parking lots, vandalized, etc.

    It's not the fines that these idiots should be worried about -- it's the lawsuits in the event of a collision.

    Next time you see a stupid 16yo, thank them for creating a horrible claims experience (and hence premiums) for your age group. You pay a lot because the risk is VERY high that you will make a claim. Add immaturity, inexperience, and a penis and you have a disaster waiting to happen.

    And FYI, the rate of inflation for Accident Benefits FAR exceeds the regular rate of inflation.

    DCPD is mandatory. If you are NOT at fault, your damage to the bike is covered under DCPD. If you ARE at fault, then you need Collision coverage to be covered. If you bike is stolen or vandalised, you are only covered if you have Comprehensive. I strongly suggest you purchase Comprehensive, since it is the same price regardless of your age (i.e. it is relatively cheap).

    The Ninja 250 is very easy to steal, but it isn't on the "hot list" of bikes to be stolen. Even still, I wouldn't risk it (and I had Comprehensive myself on my Ninja 250 when I was just starting out). Comprehensive will cost the young inexperienced rider the exact same as an old experienced rider, so the premium will seem very small in comparison to Collision, Liability, Accident Benefits, etc.

    Full coverage implies the inclusion of Collision coverage( this is coverage for at fault, single vehicle and hit and runs)

    Comprehensive coverage is for Fire, Theft, Vandalism and Glass
    There is also options to get Specificed Perils but this does not include Vandalism. Only Fire and theft

    When someone says they have full coverage, they mean to say that they have the mandatory coverages as well as the optional coverages of Collision and Comprehensive. You can read an explanation of each coverage on an Auto/Bike policy here:

    Plau which company gave you a quote for 1700, I have had my m2 for 2 years and I am 18 years with car insurance no tickets or anything do you think I could get the same quote?

    " I was also told by the broker that if I wait a year (when my M1 license matures to a year) it will drop from 3500 to 1700."

    I called John R Duffy for this quote and the reason why they say "when your license matures to a year it will drop from 3500 to 1700" is because they will move your insurance policy to Jevco
