Hey brothers and sisters. Happy riding.
Need help finding a company to give lower insurance for the 2017 R6. I'm 29. M1 Acquired July 2016. M2 October 2016. Riders training course completed April 16th 2017.
Now before we all jump at me! I'm a very experienced rider. been riding since I was 15. Dirt and Street. 100cc, 150cc, 300cc, 500cc, 650cc. No accidents ever.
Now my dilemma is that insurance companies wont accept my experience and insurance history from my home country because they seem to only accept canada/usa history. So I obviously had to start from M1 and move up and I have no Canadian motorcycle insurance experience.
I know its inevitable and because of this situation especially with my choice of bike, r6, which I'm not willing to change because this is the bike I want to ride this year. Im capable of riding it and Dont wanna wait. I understand the premium will be high and I'm willing to pay it. I just want the lesser of the evils. So far Yamaha AON is saying $5,400/year standalone. I'm ok with that. Considering all state said after 12 months insured in Canada they would give me $1,320 a year for the same bike. And I'd have my M by then and probably an advanced training course if need be.
The rules and laws around sports have changed in ontario and I watched them do so. Its almost like everywhere blacklists them, especially if you have my situation. I just want a company that will for sure insure me and I'm hoping y'all can help provide some suggestions that could come lower than $5,400.
Any thoughts?
Side note. If for any reason AON flops and I cant get $5,400 a year or lower. I do have a list of other non sport bikes that I'd be willing to settle for temporarily.
But I dont see why AON would flop. But fingers crossed you guys can maybe provide better?
Thanks for your time
