Only when you ride on public roads, when you add the unpredictable factor known as "oblivious dickheads in cars"

Great looking bike Chee. Well done.

I just got a RS 250 (very similar 2 Stroke powered bike) insured with RAC for $53 a month and I'm still on my learners. Wasn't hard at all.

I think we both know that there is a fair share of dickheads on bikes too.

The difference is the majority of dickheads on a bike have some idea what they are doing. You get very scared very quickly if your going to be a dickhead and don't learn dam quickly.

The majority of dickheads in cars have NFI and never will!!!

They sound like chainsaws, and go like a cut snake
insurance is like $600 full comp / 4 days or less riding with less than 1 years exp.
