Hi guys.
This topic might have come up prior to this but I couldnt find an exact answer to my question so here goes..
Irish guy been in TO for 2 years now, been riding here for one year. Id like to get insurance on a supersport. Im 28 yo. I only have this years riding experience under my belt as Canadian driving experience. Back home I have Irish car driving experience but no bike riding experience. Ive heard that Statefarm are the only company that will insure Supersports and for that you need to have 5 or 6 years driving experience. Do I have any options whatsoever to get insured on a supersport or superbike? Thanks for any help

You can try TD Insurance as well, I'd give Cornerstone or John Duffy a call as well. Good luck.

Thanks. TD quoted me over $4400 for a 2003 GSXr 600. Bike would be worth $4000..... Ill try the others thanks

I suppose it would depend on whether SF will recognize your Irish driving experience? Why don't you try calling them to find out

Unfortunately with your experience that might be the quotes your looking at, Best advice is maybe get a smaller, non-supersport bike and get some experience.

Thanks a lot guys

Your only chance is to call State Farm, but they probably won't consider your driving experience in Ireland.

an SV650S may be a great alternative, insurance wise, and still have relatively good performance. Much more exciting than say, an ex500 or a gs500f.

dianne@johnduffyinsurance.com at John Duffy quoted me $2200 as long as the GSXr is valued at between $3500 to $4500 and my M2 is 1 year old. Very happy with that. Payable in one amount through Nordic Insurance Company

People under estimate or are unaware of the half-decent SS insurance rates with Facilty/Nordic.

That quote was only for liability though still awaiting fully comp

Hello All,

Just came across this website and as I went thru your threads realized that its not well known in the biker community that Allstate does motorcycle insurance. I've insured a few members from this group and my rates beat statefarm/jevco and riders plus.
If you're over 30 - sports bike or cruiser - give me a call - 416 579 0080. My rates are usally about 30-40% cheaper than statefarm (based on your record obviously)

Medha.

So I am 30 with a clean record and pay $850/year with SF for a 600SS and your saying you would be around $510-$595/year w/ full coverage?

just for comparison, M, 29, clean record, 2 cars + house + 08 CBR 1kRR, $1050 for liability + comp. Chances are your former exp won't count. Hope you find a good rate. Track only is always an option

With StateFarm? Single or married? I really need to get some new quotes.

Me: 28, single, living in Toronto, 2 cars (full coverage on 09 WRX, comprehensive only on 87 944), 09 650R. Clean driving record and no at fault claims.
Paying $379/month + $200/yr renters insurance (separate companies since my company wanted $250 for the renter insurance).
