New Toy

[mustangjoe87]

Well, I'm in South Florida for the summer working as an intern at Sherwin Williams. So decided that since I am not paying rent and my pay checks are good I needed a toy. I picked this up new from the dealer 2 days ago, damn comfortable ride.

nice, but im a fan of sport bikes... but i do like it! how much does that thing run for??

I had 2 sport bikes before this and was planning on buying a new CBR. Then I got an insurance quote and decided that 2800 for a year with 1000 dollar deductables was not worth it. This bike MSRP's at 8300 and I pay 500 a year in insurance with the lowest deductable offered.

Holy crap! That's some expensive insurance for a motorcycle that's only driven 6 - 8 months per year. The last time I insured a motorcycle it was less than $200 for the riding season on a Shadow 1100.

I'm 21 and they enjoy to rape me with insurance premiums.
