and before anyone asks, b/c someone always does...

YOU CANNOT GET LIABILITY ON A BIKE. that is why bike insurance is so cheap, b/c most providers anticipate on you getting injured/killed. it would be absolutely retarded to offer it b/c there's almost SOME sort of injury when wrecking.

I got liability. The only thing not covered is any damage done to the bike. If it gets stolen, it's a $250 deductable. My insurance is $25/month with a ton of damage just in case I F some shit up like you wouldn't believe. MWR have been very cool. I actually met up with a bunch of 'em last night and went riding.

well that's a new one on me w/ insurance, and i'd never think to put liability on it.

fuck, when i wrecked last year, i was only doing about 40mph. i did a wheelie, set it down too hard, and bounced, wobbled, and down i went. if it weren't for sliders, the bike would've been more screwed than just the tank banged to hell.

I see this being pretty common. Most people trying to do too much before they're ready. As far as the insurance, I could buy another new bike within 3 years.

HAHAHA are you fuckin' kidding me? i've been riding for years, and have been doing them too.

i got too throttle happy w/ my buddy and tried to show off. my own stupidity, i knew it then, i know it now, and it's still embarrassing. 17 stitches later behind my knee, and scars from road rash to keep reminding me each and every time i shave my legs/arms that i was a dumbshit.

i was plenty ready; just got too excited.

I've been posting responses to this since I posted this thread...If I was ready for a 600, then I would've bought one.
