I am 20 years old and I am going to get a 2007 Yamaha R1 but I am worried about the insurance. Does any one know how much the insurance might be doesn't have to be precise just and estimate.

I will get a quote first try Geico or Progressive, but one thing for sure your insurance payment is going to be higher than you motorcycle payment almost double if you want full coverage. Think about your budget first

If you're under 25 and getting a literbike, you SHOULD be worried about insurance! Especially life insurance!

You must be REALLY good, fella. I mean, to only have four years to go from new driver's license to being able to handle a superbike in traffic! Gosh, it MUST be true- there ARE exceptions to the rules, and you are obviously SO much more careful than 99.9% of every other rider out there that you can handle an R1!

Come on, you MUST have grown up on the racetrack, right?

Call progressive or whatever company your car is on, and ask how much it would be to add it.
It's going to be expensive. I'm 21 and I just got quoted $2,658.00 for a year.


Also, I assume this is your first bike? I would NOT recommend an R1 for a first bike. You're going to get yourself killed. Start out with at most an R6. A suzuki SV650S would be even more ideal for a first bike. Get a year or 2 of riding in, then go get a faster bike.

I know the R1 is an awesome bike, but I doubt you could handle it. I know I wouldn't be able to.

to echo above, and to add to it, to try and $$ money; if you are with state farm, and have a car policy (in some states, just a home owners; or life insurance policy is enough), then your motorcycle insurance can go down.


but, yeah, you're 20, a nearly brand new r1 and you dont state what state you live in...be prepared to pay through the nose.

HMMM? 20 year old 1 liter superbike. I checked at progrerssive and they spit out a qote of 3100 bucks. That is w/100,000, 300,000 coverage and $500 ded. comp and collision. Hope that gives you a better idea. Unless you are made of cash I would get a bike w/o the letter(s) R or RR anywhere in it.
