You have got to be freking kidding me...

Friz said:The answer is simple: you're looking for insurance on a zx6r right after passing your test. Did you really think it'd be low?
It's crazy how many people pass their restricted licence, buy a sports or supersports 600 and don't bother with restricters, then crash. I'm not saying you'd do that, but it would raise the insurance rate for you and, go be honest, its not exactly the best bike to get after passing your test to start with.
Both my bikes cost just over £1000 to insure total. It's amazing what a few years no claims will do. Pick up a cheaper bike, learn how to ride and maybe in a few years get your zx6r, I'd say.

I am very soon to be 18.Bikermole said:You'll find your age is a big factor in high insurance quotes. I don't know how old you are, but I do know that after I turned 21, and after I get my second years NCB, my insurance is pretty good. For example, a brand new GSXR600 TPFT for £600. FC £1000.
If you do that, you will never buy a zx6r. The vfr is a way better bike!!!Grandsatsuma said:I was planning on buying some crummy old vfr 400 (on offence to vfr 400 owners) and use that for a few years.
