Harley Davidson Motorcycle Parts
Motorcycle- £6000. Insurance £300. Where’s the catch?
Hi! I have my Direct Access test booked and a deposit set down for a Harley Davidson 883 Sportster.
The bike costs a fraction under £6000. My insurance is £300. That’s £6900 for the bike test, the bike itself and a year’s insurance.
Where’s the catch? This all seems awfully cheap for a new UK rider! What are fuel costs (c.8 miles a day) and parts likely to cost on this bike? After 5 years in cars, I cannot believe biking is this cheap! Am I missing something?!
I dont think thats an unreasonably low bike cost, or insurance rate, although you do seem to have gotten a good deal. Keep up with the bikes maintenence and it shouldn’t cost too much in repairs. That bike should get around 50-60miles per gallon, so that shouldnt be an issue. As for catches, all you really have to think about is your vulnerability on the road, and riding in rain, and other bad weather depending on where you live. Also, you cannot carry as many passengers, or as much luggage on a bike if that matters.
