it will be lower but still high.. my dad is 50 ( i think) and he'll be paying around 1800 for a bike thats older than me . its not a sports bike or collectable.. just a regular old bike.. if you have the extra cash to spend considering insurance a year will almost cost the same amount for the actual bike gor for it.

yeah, I thought about a bike for like 2 seconds... then decided against it due to insurance.

I might buy an SUV instead. CRV or Element. the Element, I love it so much I had sex with myself hella times

if it is your first bike it will cost u a ton almost 3/4 the cost of the bike get a semi sport for your first bike and establich your self with the inssurance company for at least 2 years then get a bigger and better bike.

yup i took one and its helps on the rates for inssurance
my rate before course on a 600cc semi sport 95 yamaha was 250 a month and after the course 50 bucks a month so yes the $200 for the m1- m2 couse is well worth it and they teach you allot, and if you ride a sport bike i stronly recomend you take the course

Buddy of mine teaches the course at Humber college and it does help with the insurance by quite a bit.
