Progressive gave me a pretty good quote for my bike even though they wanted to rape me for my auto insurance... Also try "GuideOne"... they have a website, but they won't do online quotes, so you'll need to find a local agent to help you on that one. I hear many good things about State Farm, but I never got a quote from them so I can't say one way or the other.

Best of luck, and happy riding.

Find a local insurance agency that only has insurance for motorcycles. I pay 350 a month for 3 bikes (r1, r6, vulcan).

I also have full coverage, if I went with progressive, just my R1 would cost me about 7,000 a year.

Yeah... Each insurer has their own specialty. Progressive gave me mid-level Liability for $263 a year... on their ten-pay program I pay only $27 a month for my 1991 GS500E.

A lot of people have had good luck with State Farm.


I have insurance through Erie Insurance. I have my car, the wifes jeep and my GSXR 1000 all trhough Erie.

I pay about $550 a year on the gixxer.

Erie is not afraid to pay a claim and they dont jack your rates too bad if you do have a claim.

I think Erie is only liscensed in Ohio and Pa.

I love Erie. They are not afraid to pay a claim.

I almost burnt my house down last winter (long story). They were more than happy to pay for anything we needed. The claim was about $15,000 Our rates went up a whole $30.
