Hi

The older you are, the cheaper the insurance is on a silly bike.

All the best

zzr600 is an excellent touring bike (better than the bmw tourers according to fast bikes) just make sure you have a scott oiler before doing any serious miles! (or get used to buying allot of chains and doing allot of adjusting).
Just go at your own pace is my advice, following your mate as he takes a "brave/stupid" overtake could land you in trouble, if your not sure then wait back, have a look at the site in my sig its all very useful stuff and will help you stay between the hedges Thumbs Up

Have fun here, don't be put off by the jealousies of some of us younger members, we just become bankrupt every year when it's insurance time Sad
