DSM1290 Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Where is the best/cheapest place to get motorcycle insurance? It's on a 08 busa if that makes a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro1647545510 Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 State Farm was the cheapest for me. Your price can be different though based on your age, experience, etc. Call around and see how gives you the best price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinkinhood Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 What is your age and length of time you've been endorced. Those are two really big factors. if I remember correctly State Farm you have to have your auto insurance through them to get motorcycle insurance and I think they've blacklisted a few sportbikes including the hayabusa for riders under the age of 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinkinhood Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 While not hit quite as hard as sub 25 year old males, no matter who you get insured with you're going to probably be paying up the nose. Just remember to get it decently well insured because if you get hit and they run away, if you're just got minimum liability you'll be both out a bike and have heavy medical bills.

Pedro1647545510 Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 so does having your endorsement lower your ins cost? i still have my temps... I don't think so. I had my full license when I bought my bike and insurance so I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinkinhood Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 so does having your endorsement lower your ins cost? i still have my temps... Depends on the insurance provider. I've found that Progressive seems to lower your rate the longer you both have your endorcement as well as have a bike that is insured.

While he can I again would be one to highly suggest against it for the basic reason of you are a sitting duck for the most part when on two wheels. THe Hayabusa is also a bike that is decently high on the popular bikes to steal list. But that's all my opinion, I've just talked to a decent number of people who've been subject to hit and run and their bikes got totalled out from the accident.

starkmaster03 Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Progressive and All State were just about the same for me, but I didn't go with just liability. I have theft and uninsured motorist coverage as well on my 99 YZF1000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got-Boost? Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 State Farm is your best bet, Progressive is a complete joke on BUSA rates. A couple other motorcycle only places (I've heard, never used) offer good bike rates but you will have to have excellent specs (no tickets, 700+ credit, MSF-course, etc.). Whatever you do, DO NOT buy it on a credit card and get liability only. I've seen to many people do this and get screwed... (If you are military under the old system you can't beat USAA but if this is your first bike with them, you no longer qualify.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
