Yeah the reaction caught me off guard a bit. I bought one of the most " sensible" sport bikes out there I thought. Oh well I guess I'll just sell my 600 to make GTAM happy
..... Or maybe I'll ride it and enjoy my life

No one will criticize you for starting on a 500, it is the perfect beginner's bike.
Who else insures them for decent rates? I've had my full M for years and any time I've asked any company (other than SF) they either say they simply don't insure them or there's a 400% markup.
I'm paying $500 a year for a 125 and even that is too high for my liking.

"this wont hurt a bit..."
Is there a better way to go about it? Or are you talking about 600 blah blah.
Should be affordable on SF unless they've changed how they charge (basically only engine size). I started on a 650R and a ZX6R would've been cheaper on insurance through SF. Of course any other company is way cheaper than the 600 on SF but as far as I'm aware almost no one else will insure them."this wont hurt a bit..."
I don't understand what this means.
Not missing anything, that is the story as told over multiple threads so far. Who needs insurance when you have a 600, now you can finally pass people...lol
So OP you posted yesterday morning you were gettign a quote yesterday... wish to enlighten us as to how you made out?
apparently not too good, if you read his other thread.

In B4 F4i for sale.
No if anything I just sit on it for awhile. I have other bikes to ride so its not the end of the world. It's the perfect bike for me so no point in selling and having to buy another one down the road.

I did the same jump this year. I bought a 2014 Ninja 300 in March. Put 3100 kms on it, great little bike. This was my first year on the highway, only due to insurance (I'm 22). I was paying $1650 with a clean driving record through stare farm.
I bought a 2015 CBR600RR in August because I got a great deal and was looking for something a bit bigger. Put 2700 kms on it since then.
Insurance with my truck also insured at state Farm (it was not insured there when I had the Ninja insured.) was going to be $1900 per year with no collision.
The truck insurance would have gone up compared to what I was paying elsewhere too.
Luckily my father offered to put my bike in his name to save me some insurance $$. I'm paying $830 /year full coverage with State Farm.

How nice of your father to help you commit fraud.

It's not Fraud. Legally speaking he owns the bike. There is no law against me riding my father's bike.
The cheque that the dealership was given was in HIS name. No fraud committed here.
Are you the forum *******? Nice to meet you.

Unless his father actually bought the bike in the first place lol.
I know I would never put something I bought in someone else's name, especially a brand new motorcycle. Maybe I'm old school but I like my name on the ownership.
Depends how it's insured I guess. If pointing out that something may be illegal makes me an ******* then sure, I'm the forum *******.
