Nate has the perfect answer for you.

While I do agree with you about people’s driving habits, I can’t say pedestrians have been much better. I understand that a lot of places back East, the pedestrian has the right of way, regardless. But here there is a thing called Jaywalking. And I can’t tell you HOW many times I have seen people just dart out in the middle of the road because they don’t want to walk down to the cross walk either.

So yeah, I just think it’s a combination of both things, rude drivers and careless pedestrians!

if you want the coverage to be seamless (meaning without any gaps
then you have to give the new guy info
otherwise just buy a (tell em its a) new policy
and your old one lapsed or the carrier went chapter 11

Good choice man, cruisers are way cooler to look at than crotch-rockets, and girls are more likely to climb on the back of ‘em. So here’s my advice- get something small and used to learn on. Cruisers are heavy and when they start going over, there’s precious little you can do to stop ‘em. There are a couple of classic learner bikes that have a cruiser kind of aesthetic to them- Honda Rebel 250s and Suzuki GZ250 and GS500L are great to start on. Also, most people turn their nose up at Korean bikes, but I really loved riding my Hyosung GV250, and it was small and light, but looked like a decent sized bike. Buy one of those, or something like it (stay under 600cc’s) and get really comfortable with the way a bike handles, and then get a Yamaha VStar 1100. I’m assuming you’re not looking for a Harley- the VStars are great bikes and they look good and sound good and are all-round good cruisers. Another fine choice is a Honda Shadow VT1100 (they’ve discontinued the model though, but they’re around used on craigslist, which is where you are best off looking for a used bike at a reasonable price)
Good luck man, and have fun!!

idk if this will help but im 18 with a clean record and a gixxer 750 and i pay $23 a month with progressive

DAVE,DAVE,DAVE,You say this is your first bike? Can you ride a motorcycle, especially one with a lot of torque and HP? My advice is to take a Motorcycle safety course ,state approved. A lot of places like vocational schools or private courses are offered and this is a good way to learn what to do and not do.I took an advance course in Oct. and after riden’ for 37 yrs I thought I could ride a bike I learned many good techniques and escapes in a tight jam. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RIDERS COURSE BEFORE BUYING ANYTHING!!!!!!. This course completion will also help to reduce insurance costs too

Assuming your brother is the title holder, and the vehicle is free and clear of any liens because of financing, he would sign the title as the seller, have it notarized, and ideally also make out a bill of sale that he is transferring his interest in the vehicle to you at no charge. Many states don’t charge for transfers between family members.

You would take those documents to the DMV, where you would get a title issued in your name, and information as to how to get tags on it and get it back on the road. Do not drive it until you have insurance in place of course.
