im starting to really shy from the whole "bike only" idea, so dont think ill be going in that direction. but i should point out that saving money isnt the big allure for me. I've wanted a bike for years, and it just so happens that compared to other sportbikes, the cost of ownership for the 250R in particular is rather nice. I'll definitely look extensively into insurance options if i pick one up.
thats the way to go. i keep my 88 crx si, and a sportbike. i dont know anything about full coverage, cause ive always bought my bikes cash, and put liability on them (im 20 so full coverage is like 2-300 a month, liability is like 200 a year) but youll apreciate your car alot more after riding your bike alot. youll actually like not having to gear up ect.Originally Posted by osnap
its funny. people say they feel "free" on a bike, but after a while you feel "free" in a car since u dont have to put on all your gear helmet bookbag ect.

in Atlanta, a 2 wheeled vehicle is a hard tool as the only transport. The only way it could make sense is if you live near the GT Tech campus and you go to school right there. Even with that scenario, a scooter is all i have ever seen people actually use. But, any where else, traffic, weather, theft, are all the noes. I say get a car and get the 250 as the toy. Most of the people i know keep bikes in their house (Literally) and never go anywhere where they will leave them.
In fact, the 250 is the best motorcycle Kawi makes relative to equal competition.
When I first started riding I rode my SV as my main transportion for almost a year. After riding and racing motorcycles over the years I have reliezed that having a bike only sucks.
