Cruizin Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I am creating and pinning this thread as a place for us to compare Motorcycle Insurance Quotes, Rates and reviews so that we can all work together to find the lowest rates and best total insurance packages for our FZ-07's and other motorcycles. After calling around, my best deal came from Dairyland. I'm currently paying $22.00 a month for full coverage, plus underinsured/non insured on my FZ-09. this also includes total cost replacement, not just what they deem the bike to be worth. Luckily, I haven't had to test their service after an accident yet. But I'm told that $22 per month for an FZ-09 is very low so I'm pretty happy! Who is your insurance company and how much are you paying? Yamaha MT-10 ForumYamaha Tracer 900 Forum Yamaha Ténéré 700 Forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruizin Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 And that's why I created this thread. Hopefully, we can all save money with this thread! Rates change monthly, annually and this thread can serve as a multi year guide to insurance deals as they change!

kakusaizou Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Progressive is such a rip off. They were giving me $1500 a year for full coverage while State Farm gave me $576. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if someone is getting half of what you payed it could mean a lot of things. But just keep searching around for the best. I live in CA, age 30, and I have AAA at $800 a year $250 deductible.

He's got a 1600cc or something Harley and is paying $500 a year through State Farm so he gave me his insurance agent's contact info, hopefully I can get a better rate through them.

Cruizin Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 You can get competing quotes all at once via the General, see the ads on here for The General? Check it out. That's where I found my low Dairyland quote.

Kwaipuak Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Liberty Mutual 33/M/Accident free for almost a decade Bodily Injury $250,000 per person /$500,000 per occurrence Property Damage $100,000 Uninsured Motorist $100,000/300,000 Underinsured Motorist $100,000/300,000 Comprehension 0 / Collision $500 / Towing Yes / $3500 of coverage for mods. Costs me $66/month I live in a wealthy area, I see $60,000-300,000 cars daily. I also live in the mushroom capital of the world, no joke, so tons of under-insured, uninsured, even illegal laborers. I wanted to fill the gap if I had an accident and legs cost a lot to sew back on or amputate, so I have high coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcsrt Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I think Canada (or at least Saskatchewan) might be the winner. Bike insurance for me (29 year old male) is 2842.00 for the year. Luckily I work week in / week out so I am currently doing 8 day permits at $48 per week. Storage insurance is $220 for the year. For reference a touring bike of the same displacement is 1877.00.

Guest brickst3r Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I also know AAA does not care about the class of the bike. They only care about engine size. A yamaha r6 (600cc) was cheaper to insure then my fz07 (689cc). I checked a triumph scrambler (865cc) before and the quote was a lot higher then progressive. Progressive goes by class and other things and it was like half the cost of AAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruizin Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 My ex sells AAA insurance and the number one thing to AAA is your credit score. If you have 800 crdit scores, you can get good rates from AAA. Yamaha MT-10 ForumYamaha Tracer 900 Forum Yamaha Ténéré 700 Forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator Guru Posted June 5, 2015 Global Moderator Share Posted June 5, 2015 Like @gcsrt says, insurance is expensive in Canada. I have only the bare minimum basic liability on my bike in Ontario and it costs me more then $800 a year. 51 year old male with 25 years of experience, no tickets and clean driving record.

Premium Member djdiddles Posted June 5, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 5, 2015 I pay 74 bucks a month for full coverage with Foremost. I'm 30, not married, and rent. I know that owning a home does a bit for rates in general. It also covers 2k in upgrades / mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Progressive added $700 to the $200 they were charging me for my Aprilia Futura. 45 years riding experience, clean record - and not a single insurance claim At the time, I asked the agent to do a quote to add on a new Street Triple R instead. It was only $400!. The conversation after that went like - The Triumph costs 50% more, will cost more to repair, makes 50% more power and has the same displacement. The Aprilia is a 1 liter bike that's still worth half the FZ's list price. Can you explain the discrepancy? Lots of silence. At the time, the FZ7 was not even listed on Progressive's site, so the quote was done by vin. If it's still stupid high this year, probably gonna be shopping for new insurance in a couple months.

Sometimes I don't understand their pricing structure... that said the FZ-07 is fairly new and there isn't much "data", i.e., crash statistics, cost to repair, etc..., out there. Shop around is all I can say, with the same insurance coverages I got quotes (talking with actual agents) anywhere from $<500 to $1000+. I have 5 vehicles with Geico, but they wanted way too much money for the FZ and weren't willing to price-match... kind of disappointing since I've been with them for a few years now and they had/still do the best prices for me.

rick Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Also seems like these insurance companies treat loyalty with higher rates - if yer not willing to jump ship, they think they have you. . Sometimes the best rates come by switching companies. That's how I found myself with Progressive in the 1st place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruizin Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Looks like dairyland and Markell insurance are about the lowest two rates out there for me so far.

anips Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 I'm not sure how people are getting it so cheap. I've been shopping around again and almost every company including dairyland & Markel are giving me $1500+ quotes. I'm currently with statefarm and have only 15k/30k and $1000 deductible paying $600/yr right now but wanted to get better coverage. I'm 34 single in Los Angeles w/ 7 years experience and own my own home... Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
