i got my m2 license already and have taken the msf course as well. i failed the first time mostly because of nerves and stupidness on my part on practicing only the fun drills. my experience with the motorcycle is very limited, basically about 12-15 hours of riding a cbr125 during the msf course.
these are my options:
2008+ ninja 250 - typical beginners bike, definitely reliable, not very original for a first bike, about $3500
1991 zxr 400 - mint condition from the dealer, looks nice as fukk, rare bike where i live, hard to find parts, about $5700, costliest of the bunch
1992 suzuki rgv 250 - mint from the dealer, looks nice as fukk, etc. same as above basically, will most likely be the fastest 250 on the road and could smoke bigger bikes lol, about $5000
1991 honda vfr400 - mint from the dealer, honda so i expect it to be reliable, rare bike, hard to find parts, about $5400
or buy a cheap honda cb or yamaha xs and cafe it out - cheapest option, could pay off bike and insurance for the whole year mostly, get to customize it to my liking, will have to work on it first and may take atleast a couple of weeks
what would you guys do? why? would the 400cc bikes i've listed above be about the same insurance as the new ninja 400? the insurance companies i called couldn't find them on their system.
