CBR 125 vs Ninja 250

[3h2b]

Well I just gotmy m2 from learning curves, and I got to try out a CBR125 and it was better thanI expected. Even if it was a bit small, I like how it felt and drove. So I maypick one up sometime this year. Also today my buddy let me take his bike outfor a ride (he has a 2004 v star 650) and it was very fun and comfortable toride, so my question is what would be the differences in price to insure aCBR125 compared to something like a v star 250 or a Honda rebel 250(also if you guys also have any other bikes you would like recommend that would be great).
Thank you

Why don't you call the insurance company and find out how much you need to pay for each of the bikes. I am curious to see how much is it for a 16 yr old. I am 24, got my m1 half a year ago, clean driving record. I called TD, statefarm, and Jevco, its about $3000-$4000 a year for 250 or 600cc bike.

I had a cbr 125 and a ninja 250. So i can advise you pretty well. They are both fun bikes. the cbr is alot cheaper on gas, yet the ninja is alot more fun and you can keep up with groups rides. not to mention the ninja 250 is great on the highway. If your just putting around town and dont plan to go on any major highways go with the 125. if you wanna have more fun and do highways and twisties and all the fun biker stuff get a 250

essentially the 250 has balls, while the 125 has yet to hit puberty...think of it that way.

insurance wise, give Statefarm a call, i was only paying 2100 last year statefarm, 1st year rider, 22 yrs old, full coverage 500 deductible.
for a 2010 250 ninja

TD on the otherhand wanted to rape me lol

I need your agent. I'm looking for the identical bike, identical age, and just got my M1...Hoping to hear back from State Farm Monday. Quoted $3700 for full coverage from Riders Plus I think. Certainly not paying the bikes value for one year of riding.

call a couple of different statefarm brokers, they say they give the same quotes but I have been quoted 2800 from one broker 1800 from another, I went with that, it comes to about 150 a month + 8 a month for fire and theft. and recently I went with my friend to his broker and she quoted my friend 70 a month he has a car with state farm though and the broker told him if it was just the motorcycle and no cars 90/month. But once you go with one broker they will not let you switch at statefarm.

I just got a 2009 Ninja 250, pretty good bike to learn with. I've been on the 600s, and I can say that the 250 actually gives you a better feel for the curves, albiet losing out with the acceleration. Also, with the 125 vs. 250 for me, I took weight into consideration as well since the 125's accel was pretty sad.

Was quoted for $60/mth with statefarm, with 2 tickets.
