MV Brutale Insurance

TallPaul S - yeah I checked out the BHP on the bikes since the quote. In fact I found a comparison between the 675 and the 796 and nearly fell over when I realised how much more powerful the 675 is. I'm not mechanically minded so in all honesty it doesn't make sense to me!

agnes - I simply get asked how many years riding experience I have when applying for quotes, so I have to add zero.

Wyvern971 - Hadn't considered the practicalities at all, but I am now :)

bloodiedathame + SPG - brings it home but I've been wanting to do this for such a long time.

I think I'm coming round to the fact I should pass on the big bike option - I suppose I have you guys to thank for it - albeit reluctantly !! :)

A new Duke 390 is just over £4k. Not keen on the orange but might have to do!

There is a lot of text, and I'm being lazy.

Are you quoting as though you have NO license? Or with a licence? I know your mid DAS, but get a quote as if you have the license.

+1.


I did that, and when I did come to insure the bike, it was only a little more. (higher value bike)
 
I strongly suggest an older Ducati Monster, they are built like tanks, easy as **** to service your self and you will learn a lot. Can be had for chips and sound bloody amazing.

I can't recommend one enough, I still think about getting one just for fun!

£1,500!!!! Bargain, might need some work, which will teach you how to service a bike and get stuck in. You will love it, and they sound bloody brilliant. Also, if you drop it... Which you will, I'm sorry, but we all have, you won't be looking at a triple figure repair bill.

the mv brutales are meant to have dodgy snatchy fuelling as well, not ideal for a beginner.

kinda agree with the others, if it's your first big bike then get something a bit older and thrash it for a year :p
