SPORTS BIKE INSURANCE
If
you want Ferrari-beating performance for one-tenth of the price,
then perhaps a sports motorcycle is for you?
Sports bikes are fast, light and sleek, are designed for maximum
performance and come complete with the latest in brake, tyre, engine
and suspension technology.
Sports bikes typically have a fairing to reduce drag, a race replica
look and limited pillion provision. They are distinguishable by
their sleek aerodynamics, brightly coloured bodywork, the rider's
'racing crouch' seating position and are typically much smaller
and lighter than cruisers.
Sports bikes provide unmatched handling and acceleration but have
few concessions to comfort. The most popular classes of these bikes
are the 600 cc and 1,000 cc machines, however, the many engine-sizes
available often reflect the different professional and amateur racing
classes which adhere to strict engine capacity rules.
