I got my 250r this Monday and I've been looking for insurance on it. I'd like minimal full coverage but I keep getting quoted extremely high! GEICO - 4k a year type stuff.

I'm curious as to what insurance you guys have and the price.

Also its a 2011.... apparently everyone else is getting great(!) prices but since mine is a 2011 with Progressive I'm getting super expensive...

$178 a year full coverage geico.

I'm guessing your age has something to do with it

19 I suppose lol... I ended up lowering the coverage to liability and comprehensive... 500 a year. =\ still big hit to the pocket for a 19 yr old kid in college haha

Age has everything to do with it. Also, I have heard that the first year you own your motorcycle that it is higher because most crashes happen within the first year. I know for me when I turned 25 and got married, my insurance went from $98 per month for one car on full coverage to $65 a month for a car on full coverage and a car on liability. The point is age has everything to do with it. simply because there are a ton of 19 year old's that do stupid things. I can say that about 25 year old's like myself too.

hah nice =] well 5 more years for me and I'll be almost 25

thanks for the info.

yeah i have full coverage on my bike and ended up paying a little over 500

ahh man nice!

mine is threw like rider insurance or something like that

I got quoted at $175 a year.

well i havent got quoted anything lol cuz i dont have a bike yet well thats great guys im hoping to be able to afford college....(Community college) and a bike. the college is about 600 a semester so it should be doable. but we shall see. do u think payin 600 every 6 months i can still keep a bike?
