Hey, I am 17 and looking for a motorcycle. I was interested in Sport Bikes...cause they look fast and have that "oh mah god hes soooo cool" look for my age. After sitting on them and listening to dealers i found them to be quite the uncomfortable and expensive machines. I first saw the vmax a week ago, when walking by it I told my dad i thought it looked pretty tough. After glancing he got a big grin and said it was his dream bike back in the day. Knowing that i passed it up and went running to the sportbikes.
Today we visited the dealer again, i tried a few more sport bikes and looked at prices and kept seeing the vmax out of the corner of my eye. Finally i sat on it and it fit me perfect! I fell in love with it...but as nice as it looked it i figured it was outa my price range. However the sales guy told me it was a used 2005 vmax and they were selling it for 5,500 =).
Before i make this jump id like some questions answered.
How much per month would insurance roughly cost?
Is it a decent bike to learn on? I have some experience but i always respect a machine and its power.
Hows the mpg on them?
I want it screaming...any good affordable exhaust pipes i can throw on for a decent price??? but i want a good sound too...
Im forced to wear one of them full blown sport bike helmets...do they still fit the bike pretty well? i know on a harley you look pretty retarded.
Thanks and sorry if this is in the wrong forum.
