actually isn't the busa cheap for insurance? someone was telling me that the GSXR1000 was like 100 more a month for them than the busa was... cause the busa with some companies is classified as a sport tourer not a super sport.

oh well.... hopefully you can get through to the kid... and if he want's a busa... he'll put it off a couple years...

I'm here, just had to go cover the bike.

Insurance cost will vary by state and ins company.
the busa was a grand more than a 1000 cc bike for me

Damn man. This kid is in over his head for sure. Hopefully he's sensible and can stay alive.

UPDATE!!! After talking to this guy we convinced him into buying a smaller cheaper bike.. I went to the stealership with him and we talked to the sales manager... The kid got a gsxf 500, out the door 5500. he got his 1000 deposit back, so he can buy some gear and other shit he wants... I rode it back to his dorm for him.. Glad I was able to make him see the light.....
