    18 year old CBR125r insurance?

    Good, I'm sure you'll be satisfied. I'm still currently riding my first bike. Its a 1983 Yamaha maxim 400, bought it when I was 16 (17 now) and it costs me $2083 to ensure as I mentioned before. Its very reliable for its age, quick enough to keep you entertained but keeps the insurance...

    18 year old CBR125r insurance?

    I'll emphasize this again, contact Paul South (psouth@surnet.net). I am 17 years old and pay $2083 a year for my Yamaha maxim 400 (the emphasis here is on the 400cc) through the policy Paul set up for me. Send him an email with the bike you wish to ride (cbr250) and ask for a quote. It is...

    18 year old CBR125r insurance?

    Seems like a good a deal as any. Bike prices will start to climb as spring approaches. Being under your dads policy should reduce your rates I would assume. Can't provide you any confirmation cause my dad doesn't ride unfortunately. Man I bet it did! Region does have an affect but how much...

    18 year old CBR125r insurance?

    Now you've got the right idea, price all depends on the year, milage, condition etc. I would say that for a good condition cbr250 that is fair. May I ask what your budget is for insurance? I just got a quote for my 1997 Kawasaki Ninja 500 (I'm putting it up for sale soon) through aviva and...

    18 year old CBR125r insurance?

    Claimed horsepower is 45 on the 400 vs 14hp on the Cbr125, so there's a significant difference in power there. I didnt realize the other bike you mentioned was a two stroke. The Maxim is from the 80's but I do not have it insured as an "antique/vintage." I suggest you get in touch with Paul...

    18 year old CBR125r insurance?

    There's no need to start on such a small cc bike in order to keep insurance down. I'm 17 and insure a Yamaha Maxim 400 for $2000 through Aviva.

    new rider, looking to buy a used bike

    I have a 1997 Kawasaki Ninja 500 for sale if you're interested. It should keep you entertained much longer than a 250/300.

    Honda CBR 125R Or 250r? (NEW RIDER)

    Just to add to the insurance cost, I'm with Aviva (through Paul South) and I pay $2000 for the year. Bike and Insurance are %100 under my name. If you have a job and are determined to ride it's definitely do able.

    Honda CBR 125R Or 250r? (NEW RIDER)

    The actual riding aspect was not difficult for me at all. Shifting, counter steering, slow speed maneuvers etc... Once you get out on to the main roads though its a whole other ball game.

    Honda CBR 125R Or 250r? (NEW RIDER)

    As a fellow young rider (17) I would suggest the 250r for a first bike. Yes I know, smaller is always better but after riding the CBR 125 there's no way I could have ridden that bike for more than a couple months. Things would get boring quickly. As far as cost, provided you've done the...

    Bike wont start, stuck need some help

    In a bad rain storm a week ago the same thing happen to me. I could hear the the spark shorting out to the frame instead of sending the current to the spark plug. I let it dry for about a day and it work great since. Note that my bike is 32 years old so it's not exactly water tight

    What's the best insurance for new riders??

    contact Paul South from Surnet. I'm 16 as well M2 with motorcycle training course and I pay $2120 for my 1983 Yamaha Maxim 400. As long as you've done the safety course you'll be eligible for a similar rate. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
