Yea nothing to do with how many bikes. I have been doing this for many years. The only thing i can say is maybe the publicity of the bike this year. I also had a 09 vmax i just traded on this new 14 and it was low also like the others. It seems they were all in line of approx. $37-$42 per month full coverage, with 250comp./250coll. deductables, 100, 300, 50
So i guess i will be on the phone tomorrow

I am and I use Rider Insurance. Full coverage with $500 deductible costs me $860 for 12 months.
I had Progressive for 10 years... never made a claim... always paid ahead of time. That red headed c*nt wanted $2400/year for my Ninjee.
F them. Stop paying for ad time maybe the premiums will come down.

State farm for me as well. Im in MI, which Ive read has some of the highest rates around, due to our no fault system. maybe not as high as big big cities like NY or LA, but still high.
100/300 prop liability, extra coverage for uninsured motorists, 200 comp, 500 collision deductables, EXTRA maximum 50k avail medical coverage (I have poor health ins), and its right at 800/year. 40 yrs old, clean record. I do have multiple vehicles with them, they require a car to qualify for the cheapest rates.
progressive and geico quoted me OVER 2K a year for the same coverages W/O the 50k extra medical. IMO, they just dont want to insure certain bikes, so they price them high enough that no one in their right mind will pay it.

All points mentioned above are valid but what can be a huge driving force when obtaining good insurance rates are if you buy the bike outright or finance. If you finance, you MUST have full coverage and keep a $250 deductible. If you buy outright, you can still get full coverage but increase your deductable(say maybe $1000) and/or carry different variance of coverages.

When financing a vehicle, you'll pay the max in insurance rates.

Not true here, when getting a loan for a bike, you can have what ever deductable you want.

bently, In my experience, this may only be partially true. I know my credit union would only allow a 1000 MAX ded on collision, cant remember comp, but it may have been 500. JUST READ, some banks and credit unions only allow 500 for deductables.
Granted, I haven't heard of an insurance co offering more than a 1K ded on collision, but thats what they stipulated for me, on my last car loan. I'd imagine bikes would be the same.

I know the feeling bro....
rsol:
First of all +1 to the preceding comments. That said, I think a number for factors influence the policy quote including credit scores, # of other vehicles insured/ or not, the state you live in, etc. I am in Florida, paying cash for my 14R (August) and have had quotes ranging from $1600/year up over $3K. The footnote here is "uninsured motorist" coverage here is very expensive since we historically have alot of vehicular insurance fraud.
For me full coverage is a must since I am forking over cash for the bike and we have tons of idiot drivers so I am not going to be exposed to an uninsured knucklehead and then, potentially be out $15K or facing a chunk of out of pocket $ if it was severely damaged, never mind stolen. Lastly, my quotes are 14R only policy with clean driving record and I am 49.

Full coverage through State Farm, also: $800/year. But I live in Atlanta, GA and I've had a few claims the last few years. I can't complain. They've been great.

I financed, State farm is $127/month (500ded), I have 2 accidents and 2 claims on my record (not very good). $106/month for 1000ded and $150 for 250ded. In NM, other companies (Progressive/geico) wanted over $3k. I have everything with SF so I'm happy for now. Next year I have an accident and claim fall off so I'll re-evaluate then...
