BlueBob: That would be up to you. Go the minimum if you like. Do you wanna get full replacement if you bike or Accessories get wrecked? Gonna cost you more.

Do you have good medical insurance /life insurance. Customize it to fit you and your lifestyle.

Whatever coverage you decide on, get several quotes. Rates can vary widely. The sales manager at the H-D dealership where I do business is an agent as well. He has an abrasive personality but nobody can even come close to the rate he got me through Foremost Insurance.

Default Liability

I have Foremost insurance also, find it the least expensive for my motorcycles. When I buy insurance I get a high liability coverage, to protect my "great wealth" . Liability insurance doesn't cost that much more.

I am using Geico - Progressive jumped out of site when I bought the 07...... and you are right extra liability insurance is cheap to add.

Progressive is offering me a pretty decent deal that isn't far off at all from what Foremost offered. I do believe in higher liability limits, but do I REALLY need uninsured motorist? The military has a pretty kick-ass medical plan, but if I were to ever take my g/f for a ride and we got in an accident with an uninsured/underinsured motorist, she would be screwed, yes?

Default Every year

I check the rates every year ... Last 3 years Progressive has been the best for my area but have heard from others in different areas Progressive is not the way to go... Not sure what this is but was faithful to Allstate over 20 years accident and ticket free on all vehicles & home and they tripled the Bikes coverage premium on me so Adios Allstate...

Uninsured motorist - I think - covers medical up to 10,000 - your passenger would need this....

Rates are raised when they no longer want to write that kind of insurance. many reasons for this - to many accidents - thefts - at max exposure. It is a better way than saying to you - Jayson - we don't want to write your insurance any more.....
