    Default Stolen Bike Insurance Settlement

    Just received a phone call from the insurance company and I accepted their settlement of $26,347.45 after a $500 deductible for my 2011 RT Ltd. Amazing but it only took two weeks for the insurance company to come up with the figure. Would recommend Foremost Insurance through AARP to anyone, they seem to be a real stand-up type of company. Now I'll wait until November after the 2013s come out to decide my next move.

    I have Foremost on my other bikes, and they settle their claims more than fairly. At least that has been my experience after a previous accident I had.

    I would definitely recommend Foremost to anyone.

    Also, they had a clause on my motorcycle policy that if the bike was totaled or stolen within the first 12-months that they would settle by paying the price of a new model-year bike of the exact same model and features. Do not know it that is what happened in your case or not.

    Again... great company to deal with.

    You guys are giving me the warm fuzzies about Foremost.

    My agent suggested we change to Foremost last month when my Auto Owners policy came due. She said they have a great reputation, understand motorcycles and they were a couple of hundred dollars cheaper!

    Foremost is a good Company that has the size behind it to offer many different types of programs; one of which will probably fit just about anybody. The only reason that I don't use them more in my office is due to issues regarding poorly-directed marketing efforts in the PowerSports marketplace.

    I have never heard of Foremost. We have both autos and the Spyder and HD through Progressive. Unfortunately had something displeasingly weird happen through Progressive. I'm glad to hear about this company. I'll check it out. Thanks. Your experience with them sounds quite satisfactory.

    When I first read the topic of this thread, I thought that you had a bike insurance settlement stolen, not that you had a stolen bike! I must have been blonde in another lifetime.

    That works pretty well in your favor. Remarkable price really, and timely too, right before the 2013's hit the scene.

    i guess everything happens for a reason, huh? Heck, you could buy a 2012 leftover, should the 2013 not tickle your whistle, and have some cash for mods!

    Good on ya, and here's to a speedy recovery to getting your knees back in the breeze!

    I am so glad for you guys....wow won't be long and you can start the "process" of deciding what your new great ryde will be!! Again so for you two wonderful people...I hate it when bad things happen to great people...

    So great...yes Foremost is a great company and Hartford for home/auto are equally customer service friendly. But found something interesting when Insurance shopping I had been thru AARP...then went shopping on my own. Got the exact same policies/Hartford/Foremost with non AARP referral for less $$ go figure...

    Just a quick note...Ms Spyder is loaded and ready to head out "she" is giving me "the eye"...so better soothe the savage beast!!!!

    Default Insurance

    I've been using The Insurance Lady out of San Antonio for almost 10 years and I really like her rates. She only writes RVs and motorcycles, currently have progressive full coverage on my 2012 RT A&C and my 92 R100r Velorex 562 around $440 annually. 210-403-2216 ask for Lee Anne. Tell her Norm mentioned her and for every quote she gives I get entered in a raffle for a Harley they're giving away this year! I did have AMIG when we hit a deer in 07 and they tried to lowball me, and she got them to take good care of me. PS if you ever hit a deer, when you report it, say the DEER hit you, not the other way around.

    Default I love Foremost!

    Foremost is the best. Ernie- your friend Ray turned me on to them. Nobody touches their prices. I have full coverage plus on 3 bikes for what one bike would be with Ryder or Geico. Progressive was very high too.

    I had Foremost until I bought the Spyder, Geico was almost $200.00 a year cheaper then Foremost for the same coverage. Needless to say I switched. But up until then I found them to be very competitive in price. Don't know what happened.

    For those who aren't familar with Foremost, they're endorsed by AARP and give you a discount for being a member..I've had them for a long time and they're good to work with..They don't give you a hard time about accessory coverage either...I believe they automatically cover up to $3500 in accessories and you can up the amount...I pay $412 a year for full coverage.

    Please don't make your purchase decision base solely upon price...
    I know and use Foremost in my office; they are a rock-solid Company that offers a wide range of products. They also have the staffing avaiable to help settle out "issues"...
    Just like with Spyders; the service AFTER the sale is what completes the experience...

    Default No AARP for me....

    But found something interesting when Insurance shopping I had been thru AARP...then went shopping on my own. Got the exact same policies/Hartford/Foremost with non AARP referral for less $$ go figure...


    Surely you know AARP gets a kickback or referral for every policy under them....I have no use for AARP after they jumped on the *****care bandwagon because they would benefit by more than 2 BILLION dollars....just a'saying....smoky
