Default Insurance on 08 Ultra and another bike?

Got a quote from my Insurance agent today for my 08 Ultra and 99 WideGlide. They want $845 through American Modern and $1061 through Progressive, this includes full coverage on the Ultra and dropping the 99 wideglide to PL/PD only. I wonder if they figured out I can only ride 1 at a time? Does this seem like a fair price or am I being robbed? My driving record is spotless.

I have an 08 ultra as well. I have everything i own insured with State Farm and have had for over 25 years. They quoted me 850/yr on the ultra.
I called Geico and for the exact same full coverage with a 250 deductible w/towing and 3K worth of aftermarket acces. I pay 398/year.

I would call Geico if I were you.

Thanks, that sounds much better and reasonable. I have 5 vehicle insured and I thought my agent could do much better but I guess not.

Well I got all excited on Geico and here is the message I received from the quote site





GEICOÂŽ Motorcycle insurance is not available in Michigan, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Delaware.


Please contact 1-800-44CYCLE (1-800-442-9253) if you are in North Carolina. Thank you for your interest in GEICO.

I'm from Michigan, go figure. Isn't that discrimination?

In Michigan you have to pay for the whole year on bikes. I don't think it's fair but I guess you have to pay for the disasters in other states from somewhere.

State Farm had better coverages for me and was $100 cheaper than Geico. But then again, everyones situationis different.
