Yeah dude, I remember seeing your car like a year ago or even more.

It's okay, I understand, if I had a bike I'm sure that I'd spend way more time on it then my Pro

Sweet pro man. Yours is one of the best 2nd gens I've seen. Nice bike too.

Damn, that is one hell of a Protege. As a fellow 2nd gen owner, I salute you. As for the bike, I think they are suicide machines. In my opinion, I still would not trust anything on two wheels.

suicide machines!!!!!! yes.........that's why people buy them....

Here, in my state, the insurance for bikes are a lot lower than cars. They said that most ppl who ride bikes and get in an accident usually don't ride again. Plus not as much ppl ride bikes.

I was looking at a '94 suzuki katana 600 today, the insurance on it for 12 months for me would be $167, and I'm 20!!! I think the katana's have slightly cheaper insurance because they aren't considered a full on sport bike for some reason.

Thats why the insurance on bikes are cheaper. and I'm willing to take the risk for that thrill.

That's damn cheap. I always thought that insurance for bikes would be much more expensive then cars since they are much more dangerous.......

Apparently, the reason why the katana is cheaper because it's not considered a 'sport bike'. Like I said, a guy that I work with used to own one, and he said that he was looking at a ninja and the insurance would be twice as much. I'm not sure exactly why they are classified differently, maybe something to do with the fairing? Anyways, I think the katana 600s can do the 1/4 in the mid-low 12s, so that seems quick enough for me! hehe...
