• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

What does the average Spyder Owner pay for insurance in Canada?

Well, I am 40, bought a new RS-R 2011 in July of last year. M2 licence after taking a bike education course (very good course but not necessary) took it to save on insurance. T D from July to Feb 25, 2012, was $1382.00 for full coverage with a $2000.00 deductable. Now after 3700 km T D want $1987.95 for full coverage and a $2000.00 deductable! No tickets, but come-on!!! T D has my house, sled, quad, & 2 trucks.
Anybody know of a better place?

Thanks for letting me rant!

mine is with jevco also. first year (september 2010) was $1549. and i had only written my test two days before.
i then took the mc course two weeks later.
no discounts immediately upon passing the course(unlike other insurers), but the second year is $1000. i did some online comparisons, and so far jevco has the best price for me.
 
2011 RTS se5 with complete BRP chrome pkg etc. etc. 65 with clean record. $2500 deductible for both collision and comprehensive. Total premium for the RTS was $ 750.00. Local Insurance Company (AXA General Insurance) unavailable outside of this Province.

Incidentally, the price of the new RT was JUST above the entry point of the next category up from the 2009 RS se5 that I had on the same policy. It had C & C deductibles of $1000 ea. The total premium for the RS was $ 626.00.

The combined premium for both RT and RS was $1376.00 !

I am reasonably happy with both premiums, especially considering the next best that I was able to get locally ranged from $1600 to $2600 each !!!!

Good Luck with your hunt.

Regards....

Thanks for all the replies. I will look into Jevco. I talked to my (TD) guy today, he says that his hands are tied.

We have had USAA for 30 years and today we cancelled our motorcycles and Spyder insurance with them and went with Progressive. While we were at our local agents office my husband called USAA as the Progressive quote for the 3 motorcycles and the Spyder was less than half of what USAA charged. They transferred him to their Progressive rep and he was not able to match the price of our local agent.
 
Back in 2008 when I bought my Spyder, I had a hell of a time trying to get insurance, as the SPYDER was not recognized as a motorcycle, come to the rescue the salesman. Jevco was the answer, been with them ever since. Conviently enough , now my current other ins, comp, really want's my business for the spyder as well. POUND SALT, THANK,YOU.
 
Believer plus have a dedicated Spyder section on their web site. I think they go through Jevco.

They quoted me $1065 per year for a new RT-S in southern Ontario.

Today I got a 12-month quote from Geico, not my favorite company, and their quote for a 2011 Spyder RT and a 2008 Harley Heritage Softail was $416.34 total for both bikes. Coverage is $250K/500K Bodily injury, $100K Property damage, comp. and coll. $1000 deductible, towing, Optional bike coverage of $2000.00. To compensate for no Uninsured Motorist, I purchased stacked coverage on my auto policy. Seems like a great rate, what say Y'all?
