Insurance: ah, that's another story!
Do you know what an under 25, male motorcyclist (with BTW an excellent driving record) can expect to pay per month for full coverage (as in "paying a loan off" so there will be collision and comp) on any 2006 600cc "you name it! Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha, Kawasaki?????" Sportbike in CA?
Often more than the monthly loan payment.
Some places, if they don't charge you to go IN across the bridge, they'll
surely charge you to go OUT!
Cheers!
