Never ceases to amaze me, the entire premise of insurance is based around risk, yet for some reason car is more expensive than bikes...(i pay a bit more for car than i do for bike as well) Makes me wonder if the insurance industry is just fraud

Perhaps they figure the market for auto is far larger than motorcycles, so if they start ripping those people off, the profit margin goes up

You can do a lot more damage with a car than you can with a bike. My car ins. cost about 3-4 times what my bikes does. Car is worth about 2x the bike.

Rates are also based on claims, so lots more claims against cars than there are against bikes, just due to the #s of them on the road.

I stand corrected...mine is similar to Joe's, so more like 5x.
