    Question TD MM vs State Farm

    Decisions decisions...

    So I'm currently in the process of getting quotes for my new 2011 CBR250R, and am currently debating between TD Meloche Monnex or State Farm. For reference, I'm a 30 year old male, not married, have had my G since 2003 but just got my M1 this month (with M2 and RTI this coming April).

    TD - Quote is $986/year ($1000 ded) or $1012/year ($500 ded), collision & comp (either $1000 or $300), $1 million liability, and depreciation protection as well.

    SF - Quote is $746/year ($1000 ded) or $917/year ($300 ded), collision & comp (either $1000 or $300), $1 million liability, but no protection beyond that.

    From what I've heard from others, State Farm isn't the 'best' when it comes to making a claim, so I am almost siding with TD, at least for the first year of riding (I do like the thought of getting full MSRP if the bike is a write-off, as either then I can reassess riding, or use that money on a different bike). Anyhow, I just wanted to post here and see what others had to say, or what they'd do in my situation.

    TD did also say that in the event of a claim, both my auto and bike insurance would be affected, whereas I am unsure if there would be a different with the bike with SF and the car with TD (I do figure a claim is a claim, no matter what the insurance company is that handles it).

    EDIT: I should also add I did try Jevco, but they wanted over $1200/year, plus I think $70 for depreciation protection, so they were the most expensive of the three.
