• 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 are you paying for insurance? Who are you insured with?

I went from Dairyland to Progressive a couple months ago on my 2 Can Ams and saved almost 50% with better coverage? Dairyland starts raising rates after a year or so? Check out progressive-

Interesting - over 4 years, they have stayed the same or lowered it !!!!! ………… go figure ….. Mike :ohyea:
 
So that's $50/mo per vehicle for full coverage? Doesn't sound all that terrible, what's your deductible?
$1200/yr for FULL coverage would indeed not be that terrible. However, it's s an 18 and an 11 year old car. I assume it isnt full coverage (I wouldn't have comp and collision on cars that old unless I had to for some reason) I pay about $1200/or for two 2017 vehicles with full coverage and a $500 deductible for comp and collision, plus another $400 year for my 2019 Spyder with full coverage and $500 deductibles.
 
I recently moved from AK to AR. My carrier is still State Farm. I am 73 years old.

All my vehicles carry FULL coverage--regardless of age. I also insure my home with State Farm.

My monthly fees are:

2017 Subaru Outback 53.00
2015 Kawasaki 900 Vulcan 39.00
2014 Can AM Spyder RT 43.00
2011 Can AM Spyder RT 36.00

Fees are slightly LOWER than what I paid in AK. I am currently paying $171 per month for the package. I paid $203 in AK.
 
Insurance is crazy. I had full coverage on my 2001 Harley Sportster and no claims for 18 years. When I bought the new Spyder I was going to transfer the insurance from the Harley to the F3-S. Went to the agent and he ran all the numbers. It would have cost an additional $200 just for the remaining quarter and almost double the premiums after that. But if I dropped the Harley insurance and just bought a new policy for the Spyder, the full coverage was only about $100 more annual than I was paying for the full coverage insurance on a 20 year old Harley. It was crazy. I did not understand why and the agent could not explain it. I did drop the insurance of the Harley and got a brand new policy for the Spyder. The cost is just what he said it was going to be.
 
Hello,

Yet, another insurance question. I just got a 2020 Spyder RT. It was a zero-mile left over unit from last year. Went to get insurance from Allstate and I went from 2015 Honda Shadow phantom 300,000 bells and whistles gold coverage of $200 to $800 for the Spyder. Holysh&t! That is more than my 2017 Ford Fusion. Looking at Dairyland. How are they? I have already priced it. Want to know IF they are a hassle IF you need them? Experiences, etc. please.

I'm sorry, but I don't ride all year long. As a matter of fact, I only put 2600 miles on the bike from Dec 17 to about two weeks ago. I mainly commute. I live in Southern Illinois so riding year-round won't work anyway.

Thanks.

Steve

I have Dairyland, paying $424.00 a year or roughly $35.00 a month. I just went ahead and paid for the full year. Fortunately, I have not had to deal with them in anyway so I can't speak to that aspect of your question.
 
The insurance quote you got seems about $20.00 per month high. 800/12 =$66.66

My current insurance for the 2019 F3L is $45.00 per month and the 2020 F3L is $48.00 per month. As a comparison, my 2015 Kawi Vulcan is $33.00 per month. I carry FULL coverage on all of them. My carrier is State Farm. They also have my house insurance.

Rates of course will vary by location, age, driving record, etc. etc.
 
Yes insurance does take into account your past driving record, age and even your credit score comes into play. I have Markel American motorcycle insurance on my 2017 which is full coverage and run me $348.00 a year
 
I have Progressive and I'm paying $540 a year.
It also depends on where you live. I live in a dense suburban town. Not quite a city, but far more populated than a rural town.
Relatively low deductible of $500 and relatively high coverage of $250,000 for bodily injury/property damage. I also carry $250,000 for uninsured motorist.
 
We just switched back to Dairyland. We had American Modern for some years when Dairyland took a big jump but now the premiums for our '15 HD Limited and '14 RTS came down considerably.

We did make a claim with Dairyland some years ago when the wife wrecked her '00 HD Ultra. The claim process went well and we actually re-opened the claim a half year later when we noticed further damage in the tour pack.

Many years ago when I was shopping for insurance the first time I asked my HD dealer which insurance company they had the fewest issues with when doing an insurance repair, they told me Dairyland.

WOW, I also have Dairyland and only pay half that ( approx. $ 19.00 per month ).... I originally had Foremost but when they raised my price I switched .... happy so far .... Mike :thumbup:
 
The comparison between insurance rates is pretty meaningless unless you are also listing the liability limits you are paying for. $50,000 vs $500,000 you are going to be paying different rates.
 
I have AAA, $480 for the year. Also have their AAA RV Plus membership which includes roadside assistance and towing
 
I have a 2018 RT Limited and with full coverage I pay $473.00 a year.. Motorcycle insurance is a buyer beware issue as rates are all over the board..
BIG F
 
Insurance on Spyder is insane!!! Farmers Insurance $669 per year was my quote. I am still looking. Did anyone look at GEICO?
