Just decided to get a newer bike since I'm not the most educated guy on bikes, choose to fork out a bit of extra cash to end any headaches I might get down the road. 2008 R1, $7500 plus tax, rather not get into heated arguments on the internet so i'll probably not reply to any flamers. The...

Agreed, this thread can be closed, I found the bike I wanted. Insured, registered and ready for the road. Can't believe how immature some members of this forum can be but I can't expect much from the internet. Thank you to everyone who did give great advice, safe riding!

priced too high :/

the bike is broken though and i can't afford to fix it

Have been on kijiji everyday but I keep hearing these stories of magical bikes that only some forum members have access too that are cheaper and better than anything I can find "apparently". Insurance = not an issue, fire away.

Thanks, probably going to get a mechanic to check it out before I buy it anyways.

Great opinion!

Those bikes including tax, registration, safety/diagnoses will be way over my budget. Im eighteen this year and theres no shame in admitting it. I was uneducated in the laws of registering a bike because service ontario doesn't seem to pick up their phone as well as my brother telling me...

great bikes, not in my price range

Please show me Im not interested in a bike that doens't have ownership/titles

Thanks! Will do, it sounds good to go from here on, I was just afraid that I'd get a bike and not being able to change ownership without insurance. This is why math class is important. The 600cc bikes are a ton of fun, but gearing down to a 250 would be a disappointment. I am looking at...

Yeah I am really considering that, but as a first bike I am not looking to spend alot of cash, my limit really was 3k but might just wait a bit and spend 4k to get a better bike. Older bikes being carborated rather than fuel injected makes a difference too but none the less I am just looking...

Once again, thanks for your advice but I can see how from experienced you've learned otherwise. Some people cant handle a large bike and theres nothing wrong with that. I've been using 600 cc's and something higher would be fun. I'd much rather have a bike that I can enjoy riding for a bit than...

It's fine i don't expect you to understand. But thanks for the advice, I will take that into account.

Sounds like great advice, greatly appreciated. Thanks very much, I have seen those bikes and contacted the owners but have yet to hear a reply. I will hold off on the current grey zx9r due to the advice on this thread. But if I get a UVIP and theres nothing wrong with the bike I don't see...

Great bikes but none of which are for me, I may not know much about buying a used bike but I've ridden big ones and a smaller bike will just be a waste of my time/money.

Thanks for the tip, but I don't have the money to spend on a small bike + insurance on the next 7 years only to buy a bigger one at the age of 25.

Bad record? I know what you're saying, thanks for the advice though. I wouldn't be happy riding a 250cc though. I guess thats when you have to put it in first and ride it on the road

Yeah I slept on it and I am rushing to much to get my first bike, luckily some sense hit me before it was too late. He told me I could get my hands on a UVIP at a service ontario, I am gonna take it slow and get the UVIP, aswell as asking a garage I trust to take care of it. If that doesn't...

I know exactly what you're talking about, I won't deny it either, it's not the best idea having a zx9r as a first bike. Im 18
