After 5 years of my cars, home and previous motorcycle insured through Allstate, they apparently won't insure my new 03 954 because it's a "sports bike". No shit, Sherlock. Keep in mind I'm 37, married, have had my bike license for 20 years and have NEVER had an accident on a bike. Talk about stupidity. So now I have go frickin shopping around for insurance which is a pain in the ass. State Farm will do it but they say I have to bring over my cars as well.

Sorry, felt like venting...

yup, more and more companies are doing this crap. :x

I have my house, truck, life and motorcycle through the farm bureu even though I dont farm, but I own my 54 and have full coverage and it only cost me 167 a year. :wink:

state farm has been real good to me, but my truck is through them as well. i'm paying about $670 a year. fire, theft,.the works. it might be something to look in to. :?

If you've been with them that long and now they won't insure your bike than fuck em. Take your business elsewhere.

oh....and what he said :P

I have State Farm too. They made me bring the car over, but it was worth it. I think the 954 is about $300/yr and I'm 27. single, and only a few years of street riding. They are cheap. Liberty Mutual has been good to a couple friends of mine. Good luck finding the best deal.

I have State Farm and they have been really good to me. I had a '89 600R that I totaled, a '91 CBR600F2 and '93 CBR900RR stolen and my latest 954 is only $42 a month.

The trick is to have a car as your primary vehicle and the bike as secondary. When I insured the 600R, insurance for only the bike was $125 a month. Car and bike-$110 a month. So it was more expensive to only insure the bike even thought I put over 100 miles a day anyway on the bikes.

man i envy you guys down there , i pay $1400 a year for the 954, and thats with a 43% discount. something tells me i'm getting the shaft up here :eek:

State Farm in Texas doesnt put a motorcycle and car on the same policy. weeeee

they have 2 seperate policies........1 bill, but it's hard to get ins. with them unless you have family with ins. with them or a good reference. i got lucky :wink:
