cheers man! I'm thinking about data dots/gps/immobiliser and trying to work out where the best value for money is, will be picking up a disc lock at the same time as my bike - would you recommend an actual chain to attach it to things as well?Damaged said:Edit: also forgot to say @Rass congrats on the new bike man! enjoy it and get a big chain to lock it up Also i expect pics when you get it home
I'll be photographing the bejesus out of the bike haha
Rubbish news about your insurance co, hope that sorts itself out. One of my mates was in a not-at-fault accident and his car got written off- paid out $4,200 when he paid $6,000 for the car only 3 months before.

I think you see it that way because you haven't ridden yet unfortunately.
Perhaps you need to work on your roadcraft with another car before you get a bike (going by your spate of fines). After I got my bike license one of my workmates asked "Is it like there's no traffic?", thinking I could just ride on the white lines and ignore cars. He got his licences and a bike, wrote it off in 6 weeks.
As for insurance companies - what kind of bike are you looking at? Insurance on a bmw s1000rr is going to be a whole lot more than a honda cb250. Sportsbikes + young people = very high insurance risk too (from their perspective).
Best of luck!

I think that bike looks sick, kind of similar to the newer z750 kawasakis.
