What about an older 93-97 VFR750 or 98-02 VFR 800?
Insurance & Low Cost Option
- Thread starter frekeyguy
- Start date
Grew up on SS, GSXR's and ZX6R...can't get afford 3-5K for insurance. Want to get back into riding....CAN GTAM suggest options.
#1. MAIN - Low Purchase price & LOW INSURANCE
#2. Don't mind anything old, I can rebuild etc. No issues there - as long as parts are easy to come by.
#3. Would prefer something that will sit on the HWY for hours. (used to ride 25K-30K per season and go down into the states etc etc, so I love touring)
#4. Would prefer with something with half decent suspension.
#5. Would prefer something that can 2up without difficulty.
#6. Smallest foot print, as I have limited space and won't be riding it daily.
I grew up riding SS, so I am spoiled with the lightness, the power, and mostly the suspension and brakes. But since I am getting 'older' I am willing to compromise.
Stats: 29M - Living in Brampton. No tickets
Stuff I won't bother with:
- Parallel twins
- No EX500's etc.
--> there must be some weird gem's out there that have low insurance and are nice to ride....
hey dude, i live in Brampton and have a SV1000 which would fit your bill, its not too heavy, its reasonably quick, rides for hours and is tourable. I pay only $414 / yr on it for no collision ...
i posted my documents and experience here : http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforu...-Got-my-Renewal-Paper-My-insurance-went-down-!!!
You forgot sexy. The 2nd gen FZ1 is DEAD sexy.

I dunno, the looks (and tiny dash) were probably the biggest reasons I never bought one lol

I nearly bought one at Apex, I really like the looks and the ergos, hate the stock exhaust. I wound up buying a versys, so what do I know about looks.
