Best motorcycle insurance for a first time rider?
The situation is this…
.
I am looking to buy a motorcycle for myself… I have a motorcycle riders permit, and have taken the Basic Rider Safety Course offered by the California Highway Patrol.
.
I am 18, and I’ve never had any accidents.
.
The bike i want will be financed. A 2009 Kawasaki Ninja 650R.
.
I know already that my rates are going to be higher as I am a "high risk" driver (rider).
.
I checked a few companies already and i’ve found that any sort of decent coverage through those is WELLLL beyond anything i can even remotely afford…
.
(I am working, and average about 0 – 0 a month)
.
The bike I have is costing me 5 a month.
.
I am curious to know what insurance company is the cheapest for a first time rider in southern california.
autoinsurance.maclenet.com – try this one. I have their car insurance and, as I know, they can provide such a service.
Your best bet is to call a company that will compare rates from others, like progressive, or geico. It may take a few calls but usually they will try to beat the other companies and undersell them.
Good call on the 650R, a great starter bike, but maybe going for a used one would be a better choice, and a lot cheaper without high APR% from financing it?
Good luck with your new adventure. I’m sure you’re going to have as much fun a we have on them!
Always wear your helmet and gear!
Progressive will more than likely be cheaper than most.
