Learner with 636cc wants insurance

[cowboyz]

I dont know the bike (sorry) - so it may well be stupid (guessing from your replies it was).

You will suffer the consequences of your own idiocy!

Dispensation to ride a 636?

Mate just got it for a CBR600

[NighthawkNZ:Me]

if the weather is good so would i be able to get insurance of some sort???

Short answer is no... I very much doubt it. Since you are not legally allowed to ride it on the public road under a learners license. Though you can own it (just can't ride it) however the only insurance you would get would be fire, theft etc

Surely not a CBR600RR..?

Ahh a bit more sedate then. Still a handful to be giving to a learner though eh.. I'm surprised any IL4 600 would be approved. I can understand the SV650 etc though.

Bring on the Aussie system of power/weight I say. Just make sure you're not a learner with a 250 to sell when they do that as the market will drop right out.

Go do the defensive/advanced rider course(s) or whatever they call them and fast track your progression onto full license, ASAP! The best insurance....
Ya could have kept the RGV until you graduated to full ya know

Of course you could probably get insurance. The would just be void of any responsibility if you ever came off. In fact I'm sure they would love to insure you as there is very little chance they would ever have to pay out until you were a fully licensed rider.

Insurance you can get: Theft and fire. Any insurance you would have in the traffic would be null and void as you do not have the license to operate the bike. In a crash you would be responsible for all costs.

Here, some info re the way how to become legal to ride the bike before you have a full license: http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=62783

Nice bike, but put in the garage until you got the Green Plastic! As far as I'm concerned there's no valid excuse for not having a 3rd party insurance - and as has been said I very much doubt you'll be able to get a dispensation for a 636. So no luck with the insurance...

You could be unlucky and fuck up everything about your financial situation - just consider it for a second.

Maybe they should make it a legal requirement like the UK..........

[jrandom]

lol i knew i wont just thought id ask oh well worth the try

You are an idiot.

[Morcs]

If ya gonna buy a bike bigger than your license allows get a shitter...

That way its all good when you throw it down the road - which is more likely with just a 18 months experience... and whats the point of buying a 636 if ya gna nana it eh?
