Insurance for me is $180 a year, on my 91. When I was looking at a 2005 GSX-R 600, it was $240 a month for full coverage, or $350 a year for liability. I am 22 with one speeding ticket for 72 in a 60.

I cannot stress enough, pay cash for any bike you get. Yearly Liability insurance is close to one month of full coverage.

240 a month? then 350 a year? or did you mean 350 a month?

Sorry for the confusion...

I was quoted $240 a month for full coverage. (They have a small discount if you pay 6 months at a time, but its like 20$)

The $350 a year is for liability only, does not cover your own vehicle.

Edit: If you take a loan out, you must carry full coverage. If you pay cash, or have the title in your name with a high rate loan, you carry whatever coverage you want. Liability only is the lowest coverage.
