hey guys
i kind of searched around but i couldn't really pinpoint anything directly on the information I'm looking for
I'm looking at getting a bike again, i haven't ever had a new bike but i used to ride a honda CR250L for a while, and was did my fair share of time on KLR650s in the Air Force. i think the insurance i had on the Honda was something like $25 a month for full coverage, but it was only a $2300 bike.
this is going to be the first time I've bought a new bike and i had my eyes set on a Duacti Monster 1200S or a BMW R9T. I'm super confused about the insurance on these new bikes. the Ducati is $16,000 and the BMW is $15,000, not a big price difference. they're both 'naked sport' bikes but they're not super bikes, which is why I'm left so perplexed by this. id be financing a partial amount on the bike so i know full coverage is needed but this is where its crazy for me
im 25 year old male, married, no accidents or tickets and i own a home in a safe area
Progressive wants ~$1300 a year for their standard rate (seems reasonable)
All State wants ~$6300 a year (******)
and my current carrier, Kentucky Farm Bureau (who has been really good to me and insures my modified 2010 4Runner with full coverage for $57 a month) wants $4700 a year
am i missing something here? i feel like I'm getting totally taken advantage of here
