I’m 26. Licensed and riding for 6 years. Clean record. Any companies that can insure a SS under $2-3K ?
Any competitive insurance companies for SS ?

Yes, wawanesa insurance (min requirement is to be licensed for 6 years, which you satisfy). They only deal through brokers. Try calling Chris/Paul South and/or Mitchel & Whale.

I heard from someone that Wawanesa has changed their requirements and you now have to bundle house and car to get a new policy. Anyone able to corroborate?
Don't think so, riding buddy just got an '08 GSXR 600 insured with them under their 6 year policy. he didn't bring anything else over.
Only ever managed to get reasonable rates at all by bundling with my car/home. Standalone insurance will never, ever be competitive for sportbikes.
EDIT: To be clear, I'm sure Wawanesa and others will write standalone policies, but I get something like 40 or 60% off by bundling. It's a racket to be sure, because if they can afford such a discount for bundling, why can't they afford such a discount on multiple bikes? But I digress, point is standalone policies will always be much more expensive.

Not sure if things have changed with wawanesa this year, but their standalone policies for SS come out to < 2k a year. Min requirement is to be licensed for at least 6 years from M1.
Give me a call at 289-460-4276. I can see what I can do for you.
+1 for Matthew at Allstate!
Nope!
Just for kicks i've been shopping around for my pending replacement, super nakeds are $20-40 more a month then my FZ09 ($1100). Super sports (litre bikes) are still $2500+.
I'm 36.

Standalone policies? Gotta bundle.
May need M as well, but try allstate. Jeff Lyn or Matt Camacho
That doesn't seem right, at 28 with house/truck/bike bundle I was getting quoted 1600/yr for s1krr full coverage.
bundle is probably the key, i wasn't offering them my home or other vehicle. you may also have more years of being insured then me.

Strange, must be because you live in the East end of the City? I am west end (Burlington) and when I was calling around I would give my birthday for a date (day when I was turning 30) and it cut cut right in half with TD. from $3200/yr to $1600/yr for a ZX6R.
Likely insured longer than me!
