Motorcycle Insurance
Motorcycle insurance - often overlooked when purchasing a new (or used) motorcycle - can cost almost as much as your new motorcycle, it seems.
Cheap motorcycle insurance a thing of the past?
How can a new or experienced rider get a good deal on motorcycle insurance? A clean driving record and shopping around are two of the best tools in your arsenal. But even that may not be enough. Choosing a motorcycle with the 'wrong' attributes (displacement, horsepower, sportbike classification, etc.) or one that has bad theft or accident statistics can trigger a dramatic price increase.

Big Valley Honda in Reno, Nevada
Bikes on display: Large assortment of all kinds of Hondas
Big Valley Honda (BVH) in Reno, Nevada is an impressive dealership by any measure. They have one of the largest selections of Honda motorcycles, ATVs, scooters, and personal watercraft I've ever seen under a single roof.
Since I'm a Honda fan, whenever I'm in Reno I try to stop by BVH just to see what's new. I dropped in during the 2006 Street Vibrations event to see the place and shoot some photos, so I thought I'd share them with you.
