Did you try State Farm?
I only pay $2,000/yr just for my bike , I'm older than dirt, and nothing on my driving record.
Try using an address from a remote town up north somewhere. You may chop off as much as 30%.
Hamilton is NOT insurance friendly, but it's home -

Agreed, insurance here is terrible and varies in prices from block to block (address wise).
2000$ seems expensive for no tickets. I'm with SF as well, only 26, only M2 have full coverage on my 600cc and pay 1100$/yr for just my bike. I know I'm a girl, but I thought being 'older than dirt' trumped that. lol.

Do you have any other coverage with SF? i.e. car, etc?
I could lower my bike ins to about $1100 by switching my car over, but that would be unwise, as it would increase in excess of $1500, to $2400 from the $900 I'm paying now. I can't win.
No retiree discount from SF on my bike either. (I get 15% off my car)

I buy brand new car in may this year its damn Kia Rio5 and cost me around 300$ a month with state farm and state farm quote me on gixxer 600cc 2250 $ but today i call guy name Avi Singh (great guy) i found this guy on this forum and he quote 250 cc 550$ a year (thats cool) so I might go with 250 for next year at least Im back on the track hahaha
p.s. 13lotusflowers thanks for info and any good 250 let me know

Not at first and I was paying 1400$/yr. Then I picked up a tinnny life insurance policy that cost me 14$/ month but saved like 40$/month on my motorcycle insurance for having 'dual insurances'. Handy trick my SF agent brought about. So now I pay less but have the additional benefit of life insurance. Full coverage for only 1100$/yr. My car and home are insured elsewhere as SF couldn't match my car rate due to my one ticket. And the house was the exact same, but I get a discount on my car through the other place for having both there...

yeah, I'm long winded
