Insurance w/o safety courses

[jeffjones]

I know it's better to take the course, etc. but they are all booked till May and I have a friend who can teach me to ride, so all I need is to get insurance w/o safety course and it should be reasonable priced. Would really appreciate if someone can hook me up with any company/broker who would likely provide me with a reasonable quote. I'm 30 (but less then 5 years in North America, so no state farm) and have only M1 insuring 2009 Kawasaki ninja 650R. Thanks for any input.

With only an M1 and no safety course and not beoing eligible for SF, I'm not sure exactly where to go but be in for a fairly high premium.

Courses don't discount the insurance quotes. They won't even ask you if you have a certif. or not...

Really? I can only speak for TD MM, but safety course certificate, which they required me to fax to them, made a huge difference when I got it.

I know SF doesn't care but I have done other quotes that it made a big difference with.

Your over 25, so checkout ridersplus insurance, they will give you discount for taking course. In fact they won't insure you without it.

I know, the difference is like $1K per year ...

Many companies actually require that you take the course before they will even insure you (especially if you are under some specific age like 25 or 30). If you are over 30 then you have a better chance of finding an insurer who doesn't require the course.

So why not take the course?

I think what the OP means is he needs insurance sooner than there are M2X courses available...
Maybe if you can prove to the insurance company you've booked one...?

I would take the course, but unfortunately they are booked till later April/May

Do you know any company other then SF (can't get quote from them as i said) who doesn't care about safety courses?
