hi

im thinking of doing my test in the next few weeks, then save up for a zxr 400.
should i/do i have to do the thoery test b4 having any lessons?

also what would the insurance be like on a zxr4, i have had a quote for £630 TPTF with bennets. im 17 with 0 ncb (no convictions,garadged,gd area ect ect) that was the cheapest quote so far.

thanks Thumbs Up

thats a good price and a zxr400 is a brilliant choice of bike, not just coz i have one but i think they are a good step up if u fancy summat bigger, only other option is sumthin small like the gixxer thou or suzu hayabusa Twisted Evil

Get it out of the way ASAP. No point going along to lessons, getting hooked, wanting to book your practical test and then finding you can't do it because you have to wait a few weeks to get the theory done first.

Yep, good advice Thumbs Up

After failing one test i got put off and left re-booking it for 4 months, best get it all done ASAP, then its out on your new bike Thumbs Up

ZxRs are horrible, made of cheese, the cams are made of cadburys and the bolts are made of compressed rabbit poo.

anyway, you should expect to pay about £600 tpft in a bad area at 17 with no NCB.
so if its more than that, its a bad quote, you gotta ring round over 30 of these c*nts to get a good one.

Honda for ever.
