State Farm


Dang! That's getting REAR ENDED twice....sorry that happened. Hope you were compensated fairly and you fully recovered.

Cheers...Greg
 


GPMAZ....that's quite the lawyer you have....As I understand it; the prime directive of any Insurance companies is to deny claims by any means necessary. Legal or illegal...Glad that worked out for you....Bet you are on State Farms "no drive list"...LOL
 
I too am a former Progressive customer. In my case, I've had USAA a long time, and then they stopped insuring motorcycles -- they would keep the grandfathered ones -- but as I sold them, I had to go elsewhere. Progressive was o.k. until I got the bill one day, and what had been $600 became $2,000. It took me a while to find anyone who could tell me what was going on, and it turned out they had reclassified my vanilla, anemic straight up cruiser Honda CTX700D with an automatic transmission and ABS, as a sport bike. I called GEICO, and they were quoting the CTX at the previous rate, so I switched all my vehicles to them, dropping Progressive like a hot potato.

Ditto on shopping around, and it's a real shame we have to hire lawyers some times.
 

It wasn't my insurance, it was the guy who we rented the car to whose insurance had to pay. We structured the rental agreement to look exactly like what everybody signs for Hertz or Avis or whatever. There was no mention of it being used on a race track. There were additional forms to cover our liability for on track situations. State Farm screamed bloody murder about the track issue, but their policy had no provisions denying coverage for rentals used on race tracks. Wouldn't be surprised if they haven't corrected that oversight.
 
I'm in Ontario Canada , slim pickings on who is going to Fork you over for insurance
 

Sure didn't last very long . . .
 
Yeah, it's surprisingly hard to not say something when people are spouting total disinformation, but I am trying to not introduce too much reality in the forum and keeping it purely to bikes. I'd go back and delete it but not much point now that it's been quoted, but let's just let it go as is or this gets moved by the admins.

True enough, and some won't touch 2300cc, I dropped TD, went through Riders Plus, they are using Echelon, some others in Ontario have got better elsewhere, its pretty inconsistent , shop around, good luck. I thought I saw on a Previous thread you were in Stittsville, it's part of Ottawa, use it. When we moved to Kemptville, they tried to raise our insurance because we are in a rural area now, I argued that when we ride, they first thing we do is GET AWAY from the city where there are more vehicles to pose a danger.
 
Sigh.. I'm with state farm. I've got 2 bikes. I dont get a renewal till October or so, but I am already lubing up to see the huge increase in rates. Time to go shopping soon. I absolutely hate Ontario insurance, it's one of my biggest monthly expenses behind rent.
 
HEY that sounds like you took advantage of an oversight on their part I wouldnt think anyone would insure a car used on a racetrack
