When I went to insure my newly aquired Y2k Honda VFR recently, I discovered I had bought a "Sport Bike".
I had always know that this was Honda's 3/4 liter Sporting contender, but I had always read what a great "Sport Tourer" it was.
When I went to get insurance, I was shocked that to get the same coverage as I carried on my GS, was going to cost me $1500+ and that next year, when my policy came due, Dairyland would cance me. Seems they do not want to write insurance with large liability limits on VFR's because they are "Sport Bikes".
I ended up cancelling my policy with Dairlyand and getting coverage on both bikes for quite a bit less at Markel insurance.
I was just wondering how younger people can afford to get insurance on a VFR?
