    Geico and Progressive were the 2 highest companies that I've ever checked. Over 30, married, MSF, years of riding with no accidents or tickets. Still Progressive wanted over $5K/yr, and Geico wanted over $4K/yr on a used bike that cost $10K brand new. Obviously, they didn't want the business. They are rip-offs.

    theres something more to that story...progresive is a good company when it comes to bikes....like i said, i was actually 23 when i got the insurance, no msf, clean mvr, and i was quoted 1079 for the year for full coverage

    at 5k/year thats over $400 a month, i dont pay that much for car insurance on 2cars, and i now have a failure to obey on my record, and my wife still has an accident and 2 speeding tickets and neither of us are over 25 yet....this is on an 01 accord and 03 trailblazer...hell i didnt pay that much when i was much younger w/ a civic, or my cobra, or my talon....

    yea, i worked for geico for about 5 years, i know how it works, but i dont think that living in doraville, according to his profile anyway, will have that kind of affect on his rates, the city has a population of around 10k, meaning a low crime rate, hell i live in macon and we have a population of just under 100k and one hellacious crime rate and like i said at 23 i bought a policy w/ progressive (and btw you dont get discounts for having your car and bike w/ progressive, they are two seperate policies according to them) for just under $100 month full coverage on a 2003 r6 special edition, no msf course, and a clean mvr at the time....i just think he's either talking out of his ass or he screwed up the info somewhere along the lines

    theres alot of stuff that goes into insurance quotes, he could have some seriously fucked up credit or something like that
