How Much Is Motorcycle Insurance In New York?




I’m getting a sport bike soon, a 2008 honda cbr600rr, and I wanted to know roughly how much per year is the insurance, both just liability on the motorcycle, and full coverage, such as theft.

The true cost of owning a motorcycle?




I have my eye on a bike (2009 Honda Rebel 250), and am wondering what the true price is of owning a bike.
I know there is insurance(I am 18, with a clean record. It should be cheap?), a helmet(not sure how much a good, quality helmet would run), DMV costs???…and is there anything else? I don’t want to buy anything that ISN’T mandatory.

High RPMs killing my motorcycle?




So I’ve got an old ‘79 Honda CX500 Custom. Great bike, paid for, high MPG, cheap insurance. I commute to school, about a 50 mile round trip, about half of that on the freeway 3-4 times per week. The flow of traffic is 70-85 mph, about 7k-9k rpm on the bike (they only come with 5 gears) It seems to me that this isn’t a good thing for it. Anyone else agree? I’m thinking about getting something that’s happier with going these speeds (and has more punch when I need to pass, ect.) That and the damn wind is annoying at anything above 75. Thoughts?
Thanks for your input guys. The look of the aftermarket windshield just doesn’t look right to me really.

I’d like to add- the redline is at 9500 and the speedometer goes to 80. :-p
Ninebad- Yeah they say these things top out at about 100, so at 85 I’m up there on the RPMs….I’m pretty sure with my weight (175lb+gear+usually a backpack) 95 would be more reasonable. I think a large contributor to this is its 5 speed box.

Jet- Yep, it’s a shafty. I think you’re about right- 12 miles or so per stretch at a time won’t kill it. Probably the most reasonable thing to do is slow down :-p I prefer to ride aggressively defensive- slightly faster than the slow of traffic, accelerating through peoples blind spots.

Twould be a shame to get rid of it though- I might just give it to my father to putt around town on- He loves the thing.

All good answers, I’ll let you guys vote.

Both models are about the same price near 00. I have a local Piaggio dealer/service center as well as a local Honda dealer. Service is not an issue for me. I am concerned that they built the Elite with a 108cc motor and the Fly has a 150 motor. Will the Honda be fast enough for me? I currently ride a Chinese GY6 150cc scooter. Do you know how the 2 scooters will compare to the Chinese one. Thanks in advance for your attention to my question.

I need to know if Honda is going to sell the DN-01 in 2008,
Honda Dealers lie to me and they don’t know!
I’m planning on a new bike for 2008, and if I know the DN-01 is coming out I might buy it over either the Suzuki Burgman, or the Piaggio MP3 500

beginner motorcycle help?




Im joing the army and want a motorcycle to make it back and forth. I dont have alot of money and im looking for a cruiser type motorcycle. My top pick would be a honda nighthawk 450 but they stopped making them in ‘89 and i guess they’re pretty hard to find. I need something cheap and medium sized, in the 400-500 cc range becuase of prolonged long distance travel. Also cheap to find used, but looks badass to.

What brands and makes should i go for that make 400-500cc, cheapeast to find used?
a fair pricec for a 82′-89′ honda nighthawk?
Also whats a rough quote for motorcycle insurance for a 17 year old male?
thanks
