Angry How much is your insurance for the bike...???

Did anyone hear??? Insurance companies raped consumers and pulled in 4.5 BILLION dollars last year... So how much was your share in the 4.5 B???

I pay 1500 bux for a 98 ZX9R... Not a bad price...

I swear to God I want to be locked in a room with an insurance adjuster for just 5 minutes so I can literally beat the out of him, and give him paper cuts on his face and neck with my insurance bill!!! I pay $400/ month and it makes me sick to hear that they received a 300% increase in revenue for Ontario alone. them, and their lame *** adjustments. It should be like Quebec or Vancouver where it is actually run by the Government and is moderately affordable, like $3500/yr for new drivers instead of the $6000/yr I payed when I was 17. I wish death on them and their families for disenfranchsing the normal consumer. And Julian Fantino is wondering why so many people sell drugs and kill eachother for money. I guess racing has become the only thing that actually adds to my Bank Account these days; cause every face who thinks they have a cause is trying to squeeze a buck outta me.

DEATH TO ALL INSURANCE ADJUSTERS!!!!!!!!!

Ive said it once , Ive said it twice , Ive said it a thousand times.

I rather be locked in a dark room with a serial Murderer then a Insuranse Agen! WHY? cause i know the Murderer will stab me in my face ...ill know its coming..but the Insurance Agent will stab me in the back like the snakes they are!.

But seriously they are the worste i hope Ontario smartens up and opens Public insurance to us ! untill then were screwed!

I pay about 840 dollars a year for my rz. A gsx 750 would cost me about 1300 a year. State farm only goes by cc, but u need car / house and clean record.

Insurance agents dont set the rates, the fat guys in Cannelli suits in the head office do.

State Farm is pretty much the cheapest place if you give them your car/house insurance as mentioned above. Otherwise, there shouldn't be a whole lotta difference between the quotes between agents, because there's only a handful of companies that actually offer motorcycle insurance.

I paid $70/mth full coverage for my 00VTR 2 summers ago b4 they dropped all motorcycles (was with Guarantee Co.) They ed me, so I had no choice because the quotes I were getting were 3x that, I just rode the season without ins...stupid but was in college blah blah no $. Now that I'm with state farm, with my truck , I can ride again without being raped.

I got a letter a week ago from my insurance company which included a statement showing I owed them 16 more dollars after forwarding a certified check of 1517.00 for the whole year...

and then I forgot to make the payment...

until i received another letter today... and as soon as I saw it, I was like holy s&&t... they have cancelled my insurance...

I open up the letter and start reading it... and ... *drum roll please*... They rewrote my policy and my new premium is 1403

I was shocked to say the least and very pleasently surprised...

Cheap Insurance in Quebec!!!!!

I'm located in the GTA and haven't gotten my bike running yet for the season, but will eventually! As soon as I get some more YZF750 parts that I need. I'll have to open up a new Insurance policy since my old one has been long expired and I haven't been riding for about a year.
Anyways, I'm not too worried cuz I'm 31 now but I understand that new young riders (ages 16-25 or so) are paying threw their noses! So one of my friend's decided to ride out to Montreal and stay over at a buddy's house while getting his ownership transferred, licence transferred, and finally getting Insurance. He said it was worth it for him cuz he's about 19 years old and just got an older '88 ZX1000 sport bike that he would have had to pay around $10,000.00 for just minimum coverage insurance alone. He came back the following day with the biggest grin on his face and rides every day here in Toronto. I'm not quite sure how effective this will be in the long run, but in the meantime he's fully covered and legit, should he get into an accident or just get pulled over.

Cheers...............
