mines over £260 for the year, bikes like £50 lol
this is why i want a bike, cheeep insurance cheep to run cheep to tax. just cant afford lessons or anything  :cry:

erm, who told you that they are cheap to run  :undecided:

insurance ISNT cheap for new riders

Tyres, £170 a pair + and can be shot in 4000 miles.

brake discs  :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:

add in ya kit, helmet etc

X2 if ya wanna ride all year.

starting from scratch £ for £ a cheap runabout car can be a LOT cheaper  :wink:
i ment run asin petrol wise not tyres ect wise cause i wouldnt have a clue how fast it goes through all those consumable type things
