Markel has taken good care of me for years, and they gave me a fair total loss settlement on my old Suzuki that pretty much paid for the Rocket. That said, times are tight and I've got to pinch every penny, so I got some quotes to see what my options were. I thought I'd share them with you all - obviously, your circumstances will be different, but this might help inform your selection process.
Coverage for all quotes:
I tried all the usual suspects - some, like Farmers, don't offer motorcycle insurance. Safeco and Foremost don't provide online quotes, so they don't get considered. After getting a high quote from Progressive a couple years ago, I was surprised that they came in way under Markel. Geico was also higher than giraffe sex last time I checked. I do have auto insurance with Progressive, but that shouldn't account for more than 10-15% discount. Allstate and Dairyland are smoking some high quality crack!
Quote for 12 month policy, paid in full:
If anyone has another insurer to recommend, let me know. I've got a week before I have to renew. For $20, I'd stay loyal to Markel, but for $150, I've got to jump ship.
