Hello & Welcome!!

 

what is so hard about saying GSXR 1000? .
where did the squidly term gixxer come from??

 

A friend of mine got a busa as his first bike, he however is 27 and that makes a difference. If a new rider is willing to respect a 1000 than it is ok. However, if you get a six and say "its only a six hundred" there are probably only two places that will lead and niether one is good. You have to respect a bike no mater what size. The main point to riding a 6 instead of a 1000 is, if you get a 1000 chances are you maybe tempted to explore its capabilities well before YOUR time, and it will become more dangerous than the six hundred at that point . If I was learning to ride again i would get a six hundred CC bike because I dont trust myself enough to learn on a litre bike.

I hope you are joking. The GSR 1000 is the fastest bike on the road right now (As far as what I can remember). You won't even get insurance on it. Also reconsider becoming a pilot, my dad is a polit for Delta and he told me there were no jobs for pilots 4 years ago and it has gotten worse since then.

 

What kind of bike? Progressive was almost six times as expensive as State Farm for me. Progressive wanted 2400 a year and State Farm wanted 495 for full coverage.

 

also if you are planning on getting a gxsr 1000 be prepared to drop it basically no matter what you will get a scratch on it or hit something it just happens because you dont know how to handle the bike yet on the road or in a parking lot or just pushing it out of the garage. do you want to scratch the hell out of a nice bike? or just buy a "begginer" bike like a 5 or 600 trash it then a year or so later "when your 1000 comes out all new" get that then you will be ready.
take it easy and respect the bike

BTW i got insurance for my cbr900rr and im 18 for 544 a year from GIECO and i am suprised that progressive was almost double that, Gieco used to be the most expensive
wierd

 

Agusta M4 R312 i believe is the fastest on the road for today. but yeah my insurance guy would laugh in my face if i asked him to insure me for a BRAND NEW 1000

 

Isn't that 3600 A YEAR??? Holy crap!!! Holy crap! My first car didn't cost that much, my first rolex cost half that much.

I guess the good news is, when you are paying 10 dollars a day to insure youre bike, you don't have any money to **** away on crack or heroin. I hope you find cheaper insurance soon.
