call southland insurance brokers in windsor , they deal with Jevco. I've got my M2 in 2010, rode for one year and sold my 250 ninja. didn't ride last year and just bought a 2012 ninja 650 that i will pick up in May. The insurance with them is $905/yr.....pretty good !

+1 scorpion helmets, I love my exo1000

+1 for 2012 ninja 650...i just bought one!

yeah, just got a quote Jevco ( through southland ins.) seems to be the cheapest at $877/ yr , very cheap !

gotta love the kawi green, much better then all black (i think) :)http://www.burnyourfuel.com/gallery/2011/11/2012_kawasaki_ninja_green.jpg

Yikes! glad you're ok and hope the others are too. Ride safe.

Yeah, find myself looking at gear a little too much ! Also, when driving I find myself mimicking riding the bike with shoulder/mirror checks, shifting etc .. LOL !!! Need. Good leather jacket though , anyone knw a good place to get one?

Can't wait, just put a deposit on my new bike...... 2012 ninja 650 !! Gidde up :)

Holy crap , cool setup !!!! I want one now :)

i found that i was sitting low, when i stood up flat footed the bike was below me. that's the best way i could describe it otherwise it was a stunning bike and would have bought it. I was actually going to put a deposit on it but wanted to compare the two first.

That's great! I will certainly give home him a call

Ok, so i changed my mind from getting the monster 696 to buying a 2012 ninja 650. main reason, it fit me better. at the show on the weekend they were offering the monster for $9000 but if it didn't fit why buy it. So, does anyone know of a Kawi dealer offering any discounts/special pricing at...

I'm going to buy a 696 as well but new. You can get a 2011 w/abs for about 9500. I'm not sure if anyone knows a cheaper place to buy it at this time?

Anyone knw how the as on the monster 696?

i looked at the 796, i believe it's only 8hp more then the 696 and single swingarm. For me i don't see the value in going that way, it might be a good option for others but think i'll keep it to the 696. Going to Inglis cycle in early Jan as they have a sale coming up and can pick it up in...

do you have a link for the wrap or any particular brand? Yeah i love the OEM monster sport 100 !! I do like the 2 year warranty that comes with it, with the kawi after you add the extended warranty it is about the same price.

Thanks for the great comments! Do you have exhaust wrap on your bike? How much did it reduce the heat ? Looks like I'm leaning towards the 696 :)

Well, I really don't care for image, cool factor or to stand out as I ride solo. I'm choosing either bike so that I can enjoy the ride and lower potential mechanical issues! Some good points about crosswinds but I'll look into the mechanic issue.

Very good points, I never thought of the impact of crosswinds!

thanks for the comments. As mentioned I too am concerned about wind protection on the Ducati and the heat aspect. those issues might just push me towards the 650r. I'm not concerned about speed as i don't ride fast, just out to enjoy the ride. What about maintaining the bikes, which requires...
