I was quoted $4000 for full coverage for my Kawasaki once..  ;D

Racing bikes are very very expensive in Sweden too. Insurance companies don't want them.

Hi all. Would be interesting to compare insuransce costs.

I'm paying around €100 per year for full insurance on my Xciting 500.

How much do you pay?

If you want a sporty 1 cyl. scooter, there is only one. Nexus 500. If you want comfort, Burgman 650. Xc500 does its job too but it's not fast, more relaxing I think. But it depends what you are used to.

I have the tall Givi vindscreen and like it. Maybee it comes with age... much more relaxing ride but you have to get use to looking thru it all the time.

Cops here use their ears to determine if it's legal or not.

How corrup is that? Why not a sound meter? We are sent to an wehicle inspection station to check the noise level.

Had an V8 end can on my underbone. Good quality for the price. Agree that $400 are mental for a piece of pipe.

Why are some people so disappointed of Dr. Pulley sliders when others love them? Maybee they don't fit all pulleys. A round roller is a round roller and dp don't make type specific sliders.

How hard can it be? On all CN/TW bikes I have owned it has always been the same issue. Just read the trip meter and stop for fuel when it gets to your critical point.

Europe has higher octane (spelling) than the US market, could make some difference in mpg.
