It did affect it, you just cant tell, since you probably didnt ride stck or do it very long. Insurance can be expensive, especially at 19, so make sure you do ur research! Keep it clean and right side up! Sharp bike man, stay safe!

 

nice bike. WELCOME. ride safe dont become a bumper sticker

 

jus realized ur from Coral Springs! ii live their too....wen iim not @ college that is...but if u need a quote ii can refer u to sum1 REAL cheap considering our ages..iim 20 and ii quoted 1500 for the yr...so lemme kno

 

welcome and you have a nice bike. ride safe

 

The diff between 19 and 20 is quite a bit unless hes being insured under someone elses name. Sucks but I dont have any violations or anything and when I first got my bike when I was 19 for my 87 hurricane FC was costing me 150 a month through progressive. Now im going through someone local (used to date his daughter) and I have liability on both my bikes and FC on my car for less than 140. When I turn 21 I get even more of a discount Boooya. Sorry just one + for getting older. Oh and by the way your bike looks sweet I love the blue. Mine has After market blue fairings but have to replace them anyways eventually but will probably go with blue again.

 

I pay 550 a year for mine. I have everything but collision, and I live in one of the highest accident rates counties in the country (our insurance is very high for everything), and im 23. I went through progressive. I recommend going through a broker though, they will charge you a little more up front but it works out to be cheaper then going direct.

Having defensive driving also helps. I did learn one thing though, at least in New York, you need to have a car registered in your name, that will take the place of your primary vehicle, so that your bike becomes secondary, otherwise your insurance will be insane. I had to switch my car into my name to act as my primary when I got my bike, otherwise the insurers think your daily driving you bike and your insurance will be like four times as much.

 

Also: WELCOME, and THANK YOU for expressing that you are not a squid up front, even though you are young. Wear your gear https://cbrforum.com/micons/m11.gif!

 

Very nice bike, looks pretty sharp

 

No one loved my blue when I was a newbie...

Nice to have another blue on the site!!

I have Geico...they are very reasonable and the bike is all I have insured with them. But I'm 30.

I hear if you wear gear, insurance is cheaper. lol

 

I have 3 cars with progressive and i got my bike insured with them for $450 for the year, everything but collision. That includes theft which makes me breath easier
