Insurance has huge variables from driving record, age, zip code, garage/ no garage, driving history, married, credit rating and more.
After that you need to add the type of bike, value of bike, type of coverage you want and other variables.
I would suggest you use some of the online insurance quotes without using your social security number to better identify a provider that might meet your needs.

 

Unfortunately, this is typical for most insurance companies. $521 per year is actually not that bad considering a "good" semi-annual premium is usually around $250 - $300.

It may not be easy to find a replacement policy at that rate given you now have one point on your record.

Best of luck!

 

Count your blessings bro!! Mine is about $900 here in Boston. And that is with zero surchargeable events.

 

Yep I pay $822/yr in North Carolina. No tickets/crashes/claims in about 5 years

 

Here in Vancouver B.C. 2 grand a year and I never had a claim and no tickets.

 

thought Mi insurance was high state farm is only hitn me for $350 a year

 

Next time you think your Harley insurance is too high, ask for a quote for a sport bike.

 

I am new around here and this is as good a topic as any to get my post count up.

If you are paying over $500 a year in the lower 48 and are over 24 1/2 you are not shopping around enough. That is unless you have a habit of being a bad driver.

 

Geez I ain't paying that much for two of em'.
