I am looking to learn how to ride a motorcycle and am looking for a bike that is easy to learn, cheap to run, cheap on insurance and a good ride. Are older bikes cheaper? Are some brands better on insurance than others? Thanks.

    Kawasaki 250 Ninja
    Kawasaki 500 Ninja
    Suzuki GS500S

    dual sport bikes: very cheap on insurance
    Suzuki DRZ400S
    Suzuki DR650
    Honda XL650S
    (cannot recommend the Kawasaki KLR650 cause it has a engine oil consumption problem)

    sport and dual sport bikes are much easier to learn to and to ride, cruiser bikes are slow and heavy, unbalanced and are hard to learn for the beginner

    92-03 Honda Nighthawk 750. It is reliable, fun and easy to ride, comfortable, tame enough to learn on, not to mention affordable.

    I cannot answer you question as to the insurance part of each individual bike, but I refer people to this site which allows you to contact several brokers. I would narrow it down to 3 or 4 bikes, and ask for a quote on each. It will save a ton of time and money in the long run.

    Best of luck!
