    Here is something for ya, in the states I was paying about $90NZD a year for tertiary insurance (or is it third party? whichever one is simalir to US liability insurance) on two bikes, my 1100 and the rebel250. this was from when i was 18 to right before I left to come here. I get here and i go in to find out how much for the same kind of coverage, and I'm told the same price so I'm like ok cool, get the paperwork and I'm reading through it and I notice something. It says amount due is a WEEKLY sum. I go "what the shit?" and the insure guy says thats how it works so I go "well since I'm not required by law to have insurance, I think I'll do without for a while". I cant afford that yet. Why its more than a harley I have no idea. Maybe I should shop around, I just went to the Yammy dealers for that sum. Maybe AMI or AA can give me a better deal?

    Bike insurance is about $55/month for me, give or take a few shekels. Car is less than $50 for each car (2001 Peugeot 306, 1990 205GTi).
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    i pay way too much..

    [Edit] actually, no I don't.. I pay in lump, so that made it seem heaps, but now I've just figured what that is a month.. and now I don't pay so much. Fully comp all up was somewhere between $900 to $1000 with $1000xs.. So not too bad, but would like it to be cheaper

    I think that insurance actuaries work on the assumption that there is a 10% chance of total loss of a motorcycle in any given year. Therefore, just divide the market value of your bike by 10 and that should be your annual premium (plus or minus)?
