I had gotten bike insurance from a company that deals in 800 numbers with a call center in Whoknowswhere, USA. The rate they gave me was pretty good compared to other call center based companies.
I have since met an insurance agent here in Florida. She had me drop uninsured motorist coverage on the bike, and add "Stacked" uninsured motorist coverage to my auto policy. She showed me the Florida statute that proves I will be covered by my auto policy if I'm a victim of an uninsured motorist on my bike. She also told me about other customers who have did what I did, and the auto insurance paid out.
My original policy on JUST my trike was $489.00/year. I now cover a trike and a Valkyrie for under $300.00/year. My auto policy went up $55.00 per year.
Moral to the story..... If you live in Florida, buy your insurance from an agent that does a lot of motorcycles. I now have Progressive, but the savings is because of an experienced agent, not Progressive.
My agent is in Sarasota Florida. If anyone wants the number, send me a personal message.
