I've made the decision to suck it up and pay for the insurance for the bike I want. I've managed to get my insurance down to ?700 which I'm still not happy about but I want this bike. So my GSXR will be for sale soon then on the hunt for a MY15+ for sub ?14k very soon. Sent from my iPhone...

Nope I'm still stuck. Currently still using my k5 GSXR 1000 but itching for a new bike. Can't justify going from 200 per year to 1000 per year for s1000 at the moment [emoji20]. So original options still stand 7-8k bike - but I can't find one to the spec I want. Sent from my iPhone...

Thanks Gents, I generally buy bikes under 10k but most euro bikes have the big services between 9k & 12k

Yeah true enough. So frustrating I can't have the bike I want because of insurance. I would be after a sub 10k and mint example with full dealer service history so I would hope I wouldn't have problems. I've heard about engine & gear box problems on the gen 1 though even within warrantee...

So, I currently have a Suzuki GSXR 1000 K5 & this year I planned on upgrading to an S1000RR 2015 but upon checking insurance everyone wants over ?1000 a year. I pay ?170 on the GSXR. So I'm gutted. No way I'm paying ?1000. I thought I would check the older models & thought about maybe a...

Cheers bud, I've been on a BWDE ride a few years ago on my first bike (bandit), I'm a member on FB & meet up & know a few members so will tag along when wheater improves, hopefully on MY 15 Sthou

Thanks guys. From Bromsgrove, just south of Birmingham. Sthou seems to be the natural step from the K5 GSXR. Hoping to feel the benefits of 10 years development. I love the big gix but craving new technology & electronics, had a few issues with my GSXR spinning up the rear on track days.

Hi all, My name's Dave, currently ride a K5 GSXR 1000 & looking to upgrade to a 2015 S1000RR very soon, so thought I'd sign up & take a look around!
