What bike next?

Hi guys, im after a new bike, i currently have a curvy sv650. im only 20 so gotta think of insurance, i rancy a 600 sports bike but dn't think i'll get insured but was thinking of a newer pointy sv or if anyone has any other ideas?

Get a street triple r or similar, best thing is to test ride as many as possible, what sort of riding do you do?

you fancy something sportier then, or just different. If you can get a test ride (used or new) then try as many bikes as you can if you are undecided. Get some insurance quotes so you know what you can afford too.

i was in your predicament only being 20 aswell.
but still bought a nice 55 plate zx6r
insurance isnt all that bad in the end.

although if your thinking a pointy i have on for sale.

im only 20 (was 19) when i got my 06 plate ZX6R insurance wasnt too bad

I don't do much riding just commuting to work really which isit far and only use during summer time (which we don't get for long lol) I would like something sportier e,g gsx-r or zx6 r but was just concerned about insurance but if a zx is'nt too bad then i might look into them. Which insurance company did you guys find best?

Went with AA in the end as its was good on price and seems to be a good ( standard ) policy.

also if its a commute your doing ei through traffic you can never have more fun than a SM..might be worth a look unless you really want that sportyness

If you guys don't mind what were the prices of your insurances at 20 with this sort of bike? Obviously include things like NCB so i can have a stab at gauging it!

Im in the same boat as OP!

*Edit.

Sorry not to hijack your thread! IMO the ZX6R with the underseat exhaust in green is the sexiest bike on the planet!

sitting in the garage right now.
was £270 4yr ncb

not bad considering ages and where i live.
the sv and dr on one policy was £300 but i can ride any other bike with that aswell.

Street triples get fantastic write ups but are quite naked and sit up if you're after a stereotypical sports bike. Honda CBR600F's have a good reputation but I found insurance quotes a lot more than my SV that I settled for. Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R maybe?
