I got quoted £22,000 tpf&t on a zxr750 (restricted) there would be no bargepole in the univers large enough to even begin to explain how far away from me the insurers would be!

tatters was 18 when he got his Thunderrace and at about £800, your obviously ringing the wrong people.
I was insured on a K2 GSXR750 at 18 for a grand.

Carole nash quoted me £550 on an srad, wo i think i'll end up with them. A Litre bike is excessive for my needs, and will only make me a liability on the roads, and fuel consumption will be higher. I don't want to rush myself Thumbs Up

The Thunderrace is an easier bike to ride, if not easier to ride than the thundercat because the amount of accesable torque.
I dont see what it is with people and litre bikes its not like you touch the thottle and your on your arsehole.
They are alot easier to ride than a 600, if your gonna crash a thou by going too fast ull crash a 600.

600s are boring anyway Very Happy

I agree!

My original intention was to buy a thundercat, but once i rode it....didnt like it! No torque or power at lower revs! Had to rev the nuts off it to feel like their was any power!

The thunderace on the other hand has tonnes of torque and can be driven lazily at low revs or like a maniac in high revs!

It is ALL about 1000cc! Can't seeing myself ever bothering with a 600 ever again!
