Default How much you pay for insurance?

I pay like $75 a year for just liability

AND I SWEAR i just called a girl i know who works at my insurance company(her dad owns it) and asked her just to see how much full coverage would be, she calls back and says she checked it twice and had never saw one that high!

I'm 35, driving for 19 years, no points on my license or insurance and it was gonna be...............wait for it......no shit.................


























$5,000 a year, and i aint even lying

Damn.....that's a little steep. I actually was going to post this up later this evening, but you beat me to it.

I pay around $145 a year through GMAC. What company do most of you use, and or, who do you reccommend?

$317 for just liability. I think I could get $484 or 584 for full coverage, I forget the number she gave me. That's with nationwide, and there's not much traffic or anything here.

5000! they fucked up... maybe they listed your bike as a 1,000,000cc and not 1,000

seriously though... there's now way they'd really charge that... no one in their right mind would pay that!

I will pay 600 a year for full coverage on my Truck and Bike, when i get the 600rr... right now though it's more like $450 or so... with my ZZR and Truck full coverage.

There are several insurance companies - mine included - that do not want to insure motorcycles. But they do. At an inflated rate.

i have liability at $221 per year. If I had the $$ for comp I could simply save it for 2-3 years and buy a bike.

Yep. Which sucked when I totalled my last ride. I kept insurance on a totalled car for 3 months before I got another one just so they wouldn't drop the insurance on my bike.
