The r3v motorcycle thread

[rThor432]

What stopped me was the $450/month insurance. Do you pay anything like that?

I was expecting high rates and started initially with Progressive (who I'd heard from lots of guys were the cheapest for supersports). They were $340/month. They did some shady stuff with the price without being able to explain the change about a month in, so I price shopped a bit. I've got State Farm now and full coverage is $115/month (with a lower deductible than before). I'm fine with that. Progressive definitely did a few things that were out of line, so I'm glad to get away from that.

I am looking for an older cb750 for my next project.... Any of you have recommendations for better years ( i like the older ones much better if that helps ).

Interested in a little cafe 'style' with this one..

This here. Same question, but I've got a line on an '82 Nighthawk. Anything to be known about them?

Nice. Didnt call them but i have Progressive now on the Suzuki, it was indeed the cheapest. When the summer comes around i will call them and ask.

Looking at picking this up. 2001 gsxr 1000 with 12, xxx miles. The guy is asking $4400. Which I know is high but Its so hard to find this bike in such nice unmolsted condition.The color osnt my favorite but I can get over that. So tell me r3v, should I pull the trigger?

I would wait. It may take a while to find the right one but, I think it would be worth it in the end.

[homegrone30]

This is the right one its just overpriced.

Unmolested? I think you mean "not dropped"
Plenty of molesting here

[homegrone30]

Unmolested as in no candy paint, no chrome everything, no extended swing arm or any other stupid shit. All that it has had put on it is a slip on. And the little bit of yellow accessories.

I've been looking into bikes. I've looked into the Ducati monster but also have seen some triumphs that seem to be in the price range. It would be a first bike. What are thoughts on a triumph Daytona 675? One I'm looking into is an 08.

I was looking at 600 and honestly that would be enough. I was told by a guy at work that I'd get bored with a 600 and he suggested a 750 since I weigh more than 200lbs.
