just about to do test insurance info needed

[fully677]

hi i just booked to do my theory so i can do my full test i been riding on a cbt for a year so i have 1 year ncb and im gonna be wanting a bigger bike as currently i have a NSR125R i was thinking a ZXR400 or an R6 if i can get the money together, i wont be getting this till im 19 which isnt too far away but i was wondering has anyone got a rough guess of how much a R6 would cost to insure for my age and experiance (or in-experiance)

It could be anything from £300 TPO to £2000 FC.

Hi. insurance prices vary there are many threads on this forum which explain what insurance companies take into consideration eg, age, modifications to the bike, gender, location, is it going to be garaged, has it got any security on the bike (datatag, alarm) etc. im 19 and ive just got a quote for an R6 for when i have finished my 2 year restriction it was just over £500 TPFT and i have 3 years no claims, garaged and would put datatag on it. I live near norwich on the east coast. A zxr400 would be cheaper on insurance when i bought my vfr400 i had one years no claims and it cost me £650 TPFT and i think an R6 would set you back £1000+. Your bike would have to be 33bhp as well so if you stuck by the law you would be paying more money on the R6 for no more performance. Although if you plan to keep the bike for a few years de-restricting the R6 after 2 years would be better. Both really good bikes though.
