Default new from ri

hi guys, just bought my first bike. its an 84 sporty ironhead. i should be picking it up sometime this week. i was wondering if anyone can suggest a good company for some cheap insurance, i'm not looking for anything special just the cheapest thing i can get. so far progressive quote me 271 for the year which i think is pretty good since im 18. if anyone can give me some sugestions it'd be much appreciated. thanks!

Hello and welcome to HDF from NorCal... If you do a search of the forums you will find a very recent thread on insurance companies and what others are paying... It really varies though from location to location so it can be hard without getting quotes for your specific location and model...
