A few years ago I bought my 2008 zx6r for $5,000. Different bike, would have been newer at the time and mine had around 5,000km (original tires). I do think they only devalue so much though.

At renewal. Zx6r - I called around and TD is $200 cheaper than what I was paying to Aviva. M&W is $1,000 cheaper for my home and auto!

Lol. I just got a letter saying Aviva will drop me as of September. I'm going to try shopping around before I call and complain again. They said I needed to have 6yrs experience, and I've only been licensed for 4 yrs.

Interesting thread. Last year Aviva tried to terminate my bike policy on my zx6r. I'm 44yrs old but only had my bike license for a few years. I called them and threatened to switch my other policies if they wouldn't renew the bike. I had two cars and three houses with them. I'm not sure if...

Sweet name!!

They changed there minds and have agreed to insure me for another year. Next year one of the tickets will drop off. They increased my rates by $100 for the year so not terrible.

My policy is up next month, in September.

I have two speeding tickets. March 2016 & one last summer. Wawanessa has said they will keep my homes and auto but don't want to ensure the zx6r. This season is almost over and next year the 2016 speeding ticket will be gone. I'm 43 with a full license. Does anyone have any...

I wear glasses, a bell helmet with a transition visor and love the visor. I find the helmet a bit noisy but I don't have a lot of other helmets to compare it too.

Next year I will be moving to a full M. I was curious what sort of rate decrease can I expect? Does a 10% drop sound reasonable? I know there are many factors that impacts insurance premiums. that is why I am going by percentage.

Sounds like you went to Dover as well.

My dad passed his beginner's course and now has an M2. He got his first bike and dropped it last weekend while at a stop. He was embarrassed for sure. Same story with my younger brother. Luckily I haven't dropped my zx6r but I won't be too surprised when it does. **** happens. Good luck...

My dad was looking for his first bike and picked up a new 2014 CTX700N. Price was good at $6,100 taxes included plus Honda had a show special where they through in 2yr warranty, back pack and a $500 voucher towards training (like getting your full M).

Hopefully someone is able to pick up where this left off. I'd love to ride a bike like that!

I had my zx6r with SF for a few months this summer but switched to Aviva because my total insurance plan was cheaper when I grouped in my home, cars and bike. State Farm was considerably more. The bike was cheaper on its own but the other premiums were ridiculous so I switched.
