saddlebum Posted October 18, 2009 Author #51 Posted October 18, 2009 I am currently with Riders Plus....paying $724.00/yr liability only (expires May 2010)....clean record....no claims. Over the past years have gone from Kingsway to Jevco and now Riders Plus....saving significant amount each time. I am hearing from some friends that State Farm is offering some good deals but they want your home and auto policy too. I just got my auto policy and flipped out.....working on that one now. A friend of mine works for state farm so I thought maybe he could cut me a deal but as it turns out as you said they want all your policy's before they will give you motorcycle insurance. Evan at that they wanted $1400.00/yr so 1 went to riders plus and they charged me $654.00/yr.
ctraylor Posted October 18, 2009 #52 Posted October 18, 2009 My liability insurance for my 86 Venture through Pregressive is $75.00 a year.
Gamecock Posted October 18, 2009 #53 Posted October 18, 2009 I went through ESurance who goes through Atlas Insurance of Ohio. I pay $342 for full coverage on my 04 RSV and have a $500 deductible. I would check esurance, i Have delt with them and their claims before and never had a problem. Ben
YYZ Posted October 18, 2009 #54 Posted October 18, 2009 I was also with Kingway till this year. My agent switched me to Jevco after the rate jumped upon renewal.

My agent switched me to Jevco after the rate jumped upon renewal.My Agent also tried to switch me to Jevco but the rate was the same. On the letter head it say's Kingsway now operates as Jevco.
Tatonka Posted October 18, 2009 #56 Posted October 18, 2009 Wow, ya'll got some atrocious insurance premiums. I think Progressive must have Mississippi listed as one of your Provinces... Got my bill from Geico today, went up $90 to $459yr. So checked out Progressive,,,,, $1509 for the same coverage. What's up with that?? Guess I'll keep on going down the list of companies till I find a Reputable and Reasonable company,, Which as all of us here on the Gulf Coast know do not exist,,, ie; Katrina..... After reading all of this, I'm afraid to make any changes. I have 2 bikes with G**** and have yearly full coverage with a $500 deductible on both and they upped my rate from $762 to $926 this year. I don't have towing with them however since I have that though AMA (AAA does not tow motorcycles under their basic auto membership). Are all the other insurances going up this year (and why)? I'm a mature driver with no "incidents" because the close encounters didn't count (thank you, Lord). Guess I'll have to take a MSF course to get the 10% discount. Any other quotes I tried to get (Progressive doesn't do DC- AARP wanted $1,500 for one bike when I checked with them in 2007) seemed higher and I don't like to worry if my company pays off.
Renne Posted October 18, 2009 #57 Posted October 18, 2009 My 2001 Roadstar coverage "WAS" with Progressive for $228 yr. When I bought my 2008 RSV, they quoted me $460 ! I flipped to say the least. Since I am an AARP member, I called, they signed me with Foremost, full coverage w/ $250 deductable for $248 yr. I guess I'm saying, "IF" your AARP qualified, I suggest you call them. I won't go into all the rants and raves but motorcyclists sure are targets, you might as well put a patch on your back that say's " SCR#@ ME, I'M RICH" (?),,, especially in Canada! Oh ya, I wonder why we pay the same premiums in Mn as Texas but only get to ride 1/2 the year? (unless like me and try to get my $'s worth and do stupid any day the temp gets above 40 !) Renne

Hey Seebeetom, After I commented on your comment, I went back and took a good look at my insurance bill and wasn't happy either because with 2 bikes, I went from $611 last year to $926 with no changes in policy, no incidents and my three continued discounts. I called G**** today and mentined that I was in an internet motorcycle group where a lot of members were complaining about their increase and asked why my insurance had almost doubled in some some coverages in spite of having no problems. I was asked to wait and after a long wait on the phone, they came back and apologized for charging me rates for not having a U.S. license. They dropped my rate back to last year's price, but then I discussed a bit and made some changes to the policy which cut my rate down to a total of $435 a year with 50/150/50 and $500 deductible on comprehensive and collision. This includes both bikes, so I basically just saved $541 a year because of you. Thanks I owe you! Edited October 20, 2009 by Tatonka
