[The cost of bikes]

Just been looking at some costs of getting into motorcycling and its not cheap.

I started in November so since then

£2499 Yamaha XT125 Helmet Gloves Jacket Etc

£90 CBT

£178 Insurance

£540 DAS including theory and practical test to be taken in march

£3650 Yamaha R6

£298 Insurance

£45 Road fund licence

£7300

Ouch is a word that springs to mind.

i know how you feel, but if you look back in a few years and think of all the good times that you WILL have, it will all be worth it. there is no comparison and you only live once.

[is it really that bad?]

Hello fellow yam-heads, im in the throws of buying a 2007 FZ1 FAZER and am a bit concerned about the fuel glitch that seams to pop up every time i read a report or test ride on this bike, they have not been very kind to the 2006 model. and am just reaching out there to see how accurate the reports are in real world terms? and if so, has it been solved on the 2007 model.
