also if money is as tight as you say?...just make do for now til your circumstances change?....you also have the option of paying monthly for your insurance"..so that in itself should take some pressure off you finances!!

It may be that they don't support the restriction through their aggregator channels - I work in this industry (albeit travel insurance) and the politics of it all is insane. For specialist products (insurance on a restricted bike isn't standard) its often best to go outside of the comparison sites. I tried that, and then I got an error message: "We cannot provide you with a quote". So i think I'm stuck with a bike that's under 33bhp. What do people think of this? http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/bikes-...GN-3078347

Dont do it Cristo!!!!!! :eek
Id rather have a fazer and pay the extra insurance Just me though & i am known for wasting good money I meanif youre gonna go down that road id say youd be better off with cbr 125, regardless of outright speed youd still have fun but that old 80's honda i dont think will cut the mustard for you. Jus sayin! :rolleyes

As for the Bros, Exupnut said it was a uncomfortably pokey - and he's shorter than I am! EDIT: Also found the VT250-FII. Do want! ![[Image: FIIVT250-3.jpg]](http://freespace.virgin.net/simon.r.bromley/images/gallery5/FIIVT250-3.jpg)

Well let us know how you get on with that test ride, the net recons a ballache to work on but if it doesn't need any maintenance then apparently a decent enough experience.
I mean how long are you talking about keeping it,if it was just a year then you could get away with flogging it again before any money needs spending on it. Then get a :faz
