Default Allstate motorcycle insurance commercials...

are brutal. I just watched one and cringed. They showed 4 or 5 bikes crashing in slow motion.

Who uses Allstate and are you happy?

Have you ever had a claim, and what did you think of the service that you received?

I like the commercials. I just hope that if I ever crash, it'll be like that. It might even be kind of fun going over and over in slow motion like that.

As if those aren't bad enough, they have one in their "mayhem" series where the guy leads the football team out of the locker room into the street and causes a gawker to run into two parked bikes (look like old CBs or similar). http://www.youtube.com/user/allstate.../2/jSvutOU0mRQ

I have Allstate and have never filed a claim so I can't comment on that. But when I switched to them, my agent gave me a list of bikes they won't cover which was pretty much anything sporty with fairings (Ninja, CBR, etc). I don't know if that's company-wide or what.

I cringe every time they come on. most times I change the channel. whatever marketing genius thought those commercials would make motorcycle riders buy their insurance missed the mark by a mile IMO.

I use Progressive, but haven't had a claim so far.

I had my bike insured with them for 2 years, then they wanted to raise my rate 35%. Not going to happed went with Nationwide cheaper than anyone else.
